When the second or third device changes the transponder, there shouldn't be any interference with the first device. >>> I took 4 seconds and will report. > > >> Ok. > > > The timeouts didn't go, but I assume, that's normal, given the EPG scan > scanning.

I have attached a slightly modified version of the patch, which avoids error messages like ERROR (dvbdevice.c,157): Value too large for defined data type when clearing the event queue. It also returns the current frontend status even if there was no event, and logs the channel number and transponder in case of a timeout. As far as I can see the timeouts always happen on transponders that are currently not broadcasting, or use very low symbol rates, which my full featured second device can't handle.
