Thanks for that ! I'll be trying your patch this week end ! This is probably one of my most wanted vdr feature and it sounds like you've just implemented it :) questions : - have you considered changing the way vdr detects adapter on startup ? for instance vdr won't detect /dev/dvb/adapter1 if /dev/dvb/adapter0 does not exist. this might happen when using udev rules and restarting vdr while a module isn't loaded - what about being able to use aliases like /dev/dvb/dvb_s2_card_one with the -D arg ? (tho it's not really important) - what about a github tree of vdr with your patch already applied ? -- _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
