I'm using the current linuxtv.org repository. I'm a DVB-C user. DVB-S2 isn't important for me.
I have only DVB-S/S2, so I can only guess. Your help will be appreciated in order to fix DVB-C issues.

If I use 'scan-s2 -c -o vdr', the output is wrong. I get:

Bayerisches FS Süd;ARD:201:202=deu,203=2ch;206=deu:204:0:28107:41985:1101:0

I should get:

Bayerisches FS Süd;ARD:346:M256:C:6900:201:202=deu,203=2ch;206=deu:204:0:28107:41985:0:0

Frequency, modulation, DVB type and symbol rate are still missing.
That's interesting. That means the utility doesn't know what delivery system is used. Probably because it didn't tune the driver.
I'll check that. It should happen with DVB-S as well.
Can you scan the same channel without "-c" and report if the dump is correct?

A fix for the lack ONID I did sent some time ago
(http://linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2007-April/017266.html). Nobody was interested.
That was already fixed few days ago. Take latest version.

The including of the polarization into the comparison of the transponders was also
discussed in the German vdr portal
(http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?postid=746738#post746738).
That was already fixed few weeks ago.
 


I think there is a bug in the DVB-S/DVB-S2 code. If a NIT from a DVB-S transponder was
scanned and a new transponder was found, parse_nit() should create a transponder for DVB-S
and DVB-S2. Currently one new transponder is created and it is first initialized for DVB-S
and some lines later, it is reinitialized for DVB-S2.
You're right, transponder allocation is missing there. Will fix it, thanks.
