I also tried reverting it but it didn't help. For me the telling difference can be seen here: http://www.digitalbitrate.com/dtv.php?liste=1&live=70&lang=en&mux=12207 Before the change to fec=5/6 the total bitrate of 12207V and 12051V was below 60Mbps. Now it is over 65Mbps. According to the spec for Technotrend S2-3200 (http://www.tt-downloads.de/update/engl/techspec_tt-budget_s2-3200_en.pdf) 60Mbps is the limit for DVB-S. For DVB-S2 it is stated that the card supports bitrates of up to 90Mbps. So my next guess is that the linux driver implementation somehow precludes the support of bitrates above 90Mbps for DVB-S2, which are technically possible nonetheless. After all I was able to accidentally get proper lock on these transponders a couple of times but it is very hard to reproduce. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
