Thx for your reply.

Applied [1] + [2] + your path.

Unfortunately, this does not work for me. scan-s2 can tune only on the
1st of those 3 transponders on HB13E

S1  12654000 H 27500000  3/4
S2 12692000 H 27500000  3/4 35   8PSK
S2 11681000 H 27500000  3/4 35   8PSK

Please note that I can tune quick/fast on those 3 transponders with a
ngene based card. szap will report a signal of 60% and snr of 70% for
them. Problem is the CI support does not work for me.

I am wondering if there is a dvb-s2 card with ci support which
flawlessly works on linux... ?
