If you have no other DVB device than the pvrusb2, than I wonder if VDR would accept a not existing - D option. Example: modprobe pbrusb2 adapter_nr=9 vdr -D 0 -Ppvrinput Will vdr fail to start, because the selected dvb adapter is not found? Or will vdr start like there is no DVB device? Note: Maybe you need the dummydevice plugin to get vdr started without any DVB devices. > You are right that I cannot switch easily between DVB-T and analog, but > I do not have that requirement. It should be possible to start a small script via commands.conf, which stops vdr, unloads pvrusb2, reloads it with a different adapter_nr, and restarts vdr with a -D option which allows the usage of the pvrusb2 DVB-T part. This way one could switch between analogue and DVB usage by restarting vdr via OSD. > > So actually I can confirm that pvrinput and pvrusb2 not only work with > one adapter, but with three - and there seems to be no > limit. Do you have three pvrusb2 devices? wow. pvrinput supports a maximum of 8 devices Greets, Martin _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
