Hi all,

[Background: since my upgrade from 2.2.0 to yavdr-2.4.0, VDR has been 
confused about channel to device allocation. I have 2 dual LNBs pointing to
Astra 19.2E and Hotbird 13E, respectively, attached to a 4-port Digital
Devices V 6.5 card. I also upgraded dddvb-0.9.32 to 0.9.38 from git. With the
old installation, all worked fine. Sorry for writing in German in my first
post.]

In order to bind the 13E channels to device 3, I modified the CAIDs for
the affected channels to 3 now. Device 4 should be able to receive these
channels as well, but I rarely need 2 of them at the same time, and VDR seems to
ignore 2 channels written as x,y in the CAID field anyway.

This seems to work for now, although I do not consider this a permanent fix. I
will keep looking if VDR again attempts to use device 3 or 4 for Astra
channels. 

I also suspected a broken disecq.conf although I had not changed it during the
upgrade, and replaced it by an empty file, but this confused VDR even more. 

Also, last night I was watching ZDF (with Kodi), when a recording on ARD
started, which killed the ZDF live stream and crashed VDR. :-/ That should not
happen with 2 available receivers. Turned out, VDR had attempted to use device
3 for the ARD recording, resulting in a VDSB error. m(

Very strange. It feels like a bug, but this would affect everyone with 2.4.0
using 2 sats and 4 receivers, or the yavdr-2.4.0 build would be buggy, which I
cannot imagine (why would they patch something here?). 

I think it's more plausible that there is something foul in the state of
configs, something subtle and not obvious (to me). Any further idea where to
look is appreciated! 

THX!
