That is also my understanding of multi frontend devices.
If an "adapter" has several "frontends" only one of them can
be active at any given time. This has nothing to do with
any "explosives" (excuse the pun ;-) and will be implemented
in the core VDR code as time permits. Right now I'm cleaning up
the "lnb sharing" (aka "device bonding") stuff and will hopefully
find more time for VDR development by the end of the year (and
thereafter).
If you don't mind I would try to prefabricate something.
On a first guess: would you combine the multiple frontends of an adapter in one cDvbDevice? I think this would be better than having multiple cDvbDevices which must interact somehow with each other.
Sure there will be one cDvbDevice per adapter for a multi-frontend device
where only one frontend can be active at any time.
If (like on the TT-S2 6400) there are several frontends that can be
active simultaneously, then there shall be separate adapters for each
frontend, and thus a separate cDvbDevice for each adapter.
Note, though, that support for such devices will most likely not
go into VDR for version 2. I'm trying to wrap things up in order
to make a stable version 2, and after that will address new things
like this.
