Hi
i have the same problem with a skystar2 rev 2.3 and a Hauppauge DVB-s
2.1.
The picture form the DVB-s 2.1 Card is ok. If i start two recordings
with
vdr, the recording running at the DVB-s 2.1 is ok, but the recoding at
the
skystar2 card has many,many framedrops and fragments. VDR exits every
10 sec.
Exchange the Satcable from the DVB-S Card and the Skystar2card does
not help.
I am running vdr-1.2.1 with dvb-20030720 on a debian woody.

Any ideas?
