Actually, no :-) One budget DVB-T receiver at the moment. I will add more
cards once I get the rest working though.

Hmm but doesn't PROV include a priority, so it could ask if it can change the
transponder. I.e. if a Priority "0" client is watching, and a Priority "-1"
client asks, the server will say no. If the "0" asks, then it depends on
wether VDR checks prio > or >=, but you could do a PROV with Priority+1 to
get around that. Then VDR would say "yes currently the transponder is used
for a priority 0 client so any priority 0 or up can change the transponder".
In theory :-)
Btw it does work that way for me if I put in a cDevice::GetDevice call, I can
change transponders with up/down key.

It is not only streamdev, the normal 1.2.6 does that for me too with both
cards in one system. Maybe if it gets fixed in "plain" VDR it will
automagically also work with streamdev.

Sorry, I am running 1.2.6 (should have mentioned that earlier :-) with only
the EPG preferred language patch. No autopids. I don't see any errors on the
logs, just lots of EPG data being sent, but the client never shows anything.
Also Sascha I have to say great work on the streamdev plugin and thanks !!
Cheers,
Dennis
