Hi!
Again the story: I've switched from dvb-c to dvb-s today keeping my
old
dvb-c card as primary device for output - so every sat channel comes
from one of the other dvb-s budget cards (so in transfer mode I've
learnd).
As I see this, the first dvb-s card is choosen as device when I
view.
But now, when a recording starts one another channel vdr likes to
use
this card. However, this results in a freeze of the output on the
screen
(aka stopping transfer mode to primary device for output). So I
have to
switch to another channel and transfer mode works again using
another
card, I think, and I can go back to the first channel.
So it looks like vdr chooses an already used card (which isn't a
good
choice, maybe this is because I have primary limit setting
(primär-limit
in german) set to 0 - but I'm not really on the primary device) and
forgets to activate transfer mode on another card.
2nd: when the recording timer has finished and I switch to another
channel vdr falls back to the first dvb-s card (vdr tells this to
syslog) and then I get:
clearing device because of consecutive poll timeouts
kernel: OutCommand: timeout waiting for COMMAND idle
kernel: SOutCommand error
kernel: outcom error
ERROR: ring buffer overflow
And finally the watchdog triggers a restart.
Any idea?
Which VDR and driver version are you using?
1.2.6 and latest CVS drivers (all updated on Friday).
Any results? This problem is quite boring: every time I watch TV with
VDR (which will be always when cable TV is canceled) and a timer
recording starts, the channel is frozen and I have to switch to the
channel again.
