I'm afraid this won't work, because VDR stops scaning for DVB devices
as soon as it hits a gap.
You might want to try changing this function:
bool cDvbDevice::Initialize(void)
{
int found = 0;
int i;
for (i = 0; i < MAXDVBDEVICES; i++) {
if (UseDevice(NextCardIndex())) {
if (Probe(*cDvbName(DEV_DVB_FRONTEND, i))) {
new cDvbDevice(i);
found++;
}
else
NextCardIndex(1); // skips this one <=========== changed line
}
else
NextCardIndex(1); // skips this one
}
NextCardIndex(MAXDVBDEVICES - i); // skips the rest
if (found > 0)
isyslog("found %d video device%s", found, found > 1 ? "s" : "");
else
isyslog("no DVB device found");
return found > 0;
}
Untested, don't know if it will actually work as expected.
