[vdr] Re: Diseqc Patch WAS Re: Re: Some questions about plugin-featuresof vdr-developer...

hello,

hu somone really managed to us my awfull bit of code :-)
(i myselve copied som of this from an other guy)

klaus you are right, by definition a dvb-s cart is not able to do Diseqc
1.2 because t lacks outputpower. but it can generate the signals.
actually i dont know if the card does it all right, or my motor was out
of order, becaus somtimes i have to switch off my pc (not reboot) to
get my motor move again. (i used an additional power source)
so now i do multifeed, and i like it :-)

p.s. the code is still availible on:
