Hmm then it is completely bugged firmware in DVB-S. They say
they cannot relase it to public domain so not much people can
fix the code, but that also ridicolous to have it crash
at every time.

In the meantime I completed multicast reception testing on
Satelco (TT Budget clone) without the software bridge and
vmware. After 4 hours of multicast reception,
packets stopped arriving ifconfig and iptraf don't see any
further increase in packet number or byte count. Machine
didn't crash, though.

Card is tuned to proper transponder, frequency, signal is
strong and transponder is working.

Sometimes this no-packets happens immediately as I 'make insmod'.
The solution is to make rmmod; make insmod until the packets
start arriving.
