Hi, Sorry I don't like such requests where the step implementing this would be the third step before doing the first one. Afaik rotors are controlled by diseqc commands. What about a flexible configuration and creation of diseqc.conf directly in vdr? Controlling a rotor would be the next step! Jus

Once you have the rotor setup and locations stored in the rotors memory, you can already control it with with the conf as it is: S95.0W 9 V 10750 t V W15 [E0 31 6B 0E] W20 [E0 31 6B 0E] W20 [E0 10 38 FC] W5 v S95.0W 9 H 10750 t V W15 [E0 31 6B 0E] W20 [E0 31 6B 0E] W20 [E0 10 38 FC] W5

Actuator control requires a simple interface device for the computer to control direction and power to a motor. This also requires a driver which has already been made. Then there is the option to make a diseq controller box that makes actuators look like rotors. They can be home made: http://w

:·) :·) I would also like some support for rotors in vdr, I can offer Klaus a free sat dish and an old rotor if that would motivate him... Klaus, as a minimum in vdr core we need the ability to specify a ´lapse value´ between a diseq command being sent (for non rotor users this would be ze

Fixed number would help a little, but would get anoying and be in the way a lot of time. Going from one sat to the next is with in 2-3 sec's. It's when you need to do a full swing you run into collecting from the wrong sat. On 1/23/2011 2:31 PM, Arturo Martinez wrote: :·) :·) I would also
