To my understanding the only difference between s2 and s2-mfe branches is the support for hvr-4000 style of devices. So: - s2: --> would support only 1 frontend for 1 card at a time. Therefore one would need to select during the driver loading time whether to want to use hvr-4000 in DVB-S/S2 mode or in DVB-T mode. So in dev-tree following are available: [root@tinka vdr-1.7.0]# ls -la /dev/dvb/adapter0/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 2008-10-05 10:56 ./ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 2008-10-05 10:56 ../ crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 4 2008-10-05 10:56 demux0 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 5 2008-10-05 10:56 dvr0 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 3 2008-10-05 10:56 frontend0 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 7 2008-10-05 10:56 net0 - s2-mfe: --> can create multiple fronends for single card eventhoughg only one of those can in reality to be used simultaneously. Thus one does not need to select between DVB-S/S2 mode and DVB-T mode during the driver load time. So following nodes are available: [root@tinka vdr-1.7.0]# ls -la /dev/dvb/adapter0/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 200 2008-10-05 10:56 ./ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 80 2008-10-05 10:56 ../ crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 68 2008-10-05 10:56 demux0 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 84 2008-10-05 10:56 demux1 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 69 2008-10-05 10:56 dvr0 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 85 2008-10-05 10:56 dvr1 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 67 2008-10-05 10:56 frontend0 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 83 2008-10-05 10:56 frontend1 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 71 2008-10-05 10:56 net0 crw-rw----+ 1 lamikr video 212, 87 2008-10-05 10:56 net1 Mika _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
