Hi ! Thanks a lot ! I'm using 0.0.6b and the new udev rules. My setup is : - first vdr (the one in production that has to be working, especially when i'm not @home) genuine vdr 1.7.17, 2 dvb-s cards, diseqc - 2nd vdr dynamite vdr 1.7.17, 1 dvb-s ff card which keeps crashing + 1 dvb-t usb stick It is working perfectly, i haven't tried to remove/add adapter yet. I will do later today. Just another question: When i decide to only use one vdr instance, i'll be needing the diseqc trick in diseqc.conf (the one that replaces the sourcecaps patch), how do you think it could work ? I guess the quickest workaround would be to add a new udev param to force the card index in vdr. I've been having issues with udev rules to order dvb devices in the past, instead i'm using a simple simple script that gives vdr the correct card number. ex: vdr $(get-dvb-device.sh main) "get-dvb-devices.sh main" returns "-D 1 -D 4" for example. that way i'm sure my main vdr always uses my two stable dvb-s cards -- _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
