Do you really have QUAD LNBs? I have QUATTRO LNBs. The difference is, that a QUATTRO LNB supplies the 4 bands (Horizontal Low, Vertical Low, Horizontal High and Vertical High) on specific ports on its own, while a QUAD LNB needs voltage and tone signalling on each port to decide which band it supplies to that port. Would you mind providing some links to documentation about your LNB and switch models? >> I think, your diseqc.conf should look like that: >> >> # Optimized for full DiSEqC: >> >> S19.2E 11700 V 9750 [E0 10 38 F0] >> S19.2E 99999 V 10600 [E0 10 38 F1] >> S19.2E 11700 H 9750 [E0 10 38 F2] >> S19.2E 99999 H 10600 [E0 10 38 F3] >> >> S13.0E 11700 V 9750 [E0 10 38 F4] >> S13.0E 99999 V 10600 [E0 10 38 F5] >> S13.0E 11700 H 9750 [E0 10 38 F6] >> S13.0E 99999 H 10600 [E0 10 38 F7] >> >> S28.2E 11700 V 9750 [E0 10 38 F8] >> S28.2E 99999 V 10600 [E0 10 38 F9] >> S28.2E 11700 H 9750 [E0 10 38 FA] >> S28.2E 99999 H 10600 [E0 10 38 FB] > > I have tried it, and it don't work at my place ??? > Well, I can tune to some channels : > Vertical loband on Astra 19.2E > Vertical loband on Hotbird 13.0E, > Vertical ones on Astra 28.2E. Maybe it has to do with the QUAD - QUATTRO issue, but let me first have a look into your documentation. > Thank for your answer, I would like to convert the setup from kaffeine > into vdr's diseqc.conf : > DVB0=S|Astra-19.2E|Hotbird-13.0E|Astra-28.2E > DVB0_LNB0_hi=10600 > DVB0_LNB0_lo=9750 > DVB0_LNB0_switch=11700 > DVB0_LNB1_hi=10600 > DVB0_LNB1_lo=9750 > DVB0_LNB1_switch=11700 > DVB0_LNB2_hi=10600 > DVB0_LNB2_lo=9750 > DVB0_LNB2_switch=11700 > DVB0_LNB3_hi=10600 > DVB0_LNB3_lo=9750 > DVB0_LNB3_switch=11700 > > Which is the same for DVB1 and DVB2. > > I would really enjoy if someone could explain me how to use the same > settings as kaffeine use :-) Hhm, these settings only help in determining high/low band and the frequency to tune to. I first need to take a look into the code how kaffeine and xine-lib pass the information about the port to use to the DVB driver. Bye. -- Dipl.-Inform. (FH) Reinhard Nissl mailto:rnissl@xxxxxx
