(as explained in 'man 5 vdr') except for the fact that the CA information 0x0001-0x000f (which I think you are referring to) seems not to be honored neither for input nor for output (vdr 1.3.34) ... btw, I have a similar issue regarding both, source and output display ... cosider a setup with two cards, one FF one budget the FF connected to LNB A (Astra) the budget connected to a diseqc switch (LNB A/LNB B, Astra/Hotbird) I'd like to view a channel on Hotbird .. but this seems not possible (black screen at best) recording is fine, if the budget card is selected as second card (preferred for recording) slighly different setup, diseqc switch on FF, single LNB A on budget viewing a Hotbird channel works like a charm, but recording breaks, as the recording is moved to the budget card, which can not receive Hotbird adding CA entries seems not to change anything, I assumed that adding a 1 there will 'lock' the channel to the first card, but it seems to have no effect at all ... thanks for any clarifications!
