As far as trying vdr with clear DVB-S2 channels, unfortunately it is not possible in my case since I only have access to Hotbird, which I think has no clear DVB-S2 channels.
yes, you are right - on Hotbird the open dvb-s2 channels absent http://www.lyngsat.com/hd/hotbird.html
As fas as changing encrypted flag, vpid, ppid and dpid, can you please give me an example, what I have to change in the following line:
Next HD;SkyItalia:11996:vC23M5S1Z35:S13.0E:27500:10160+160:0;400=ita,401=eng:0:919,93B:11030:64511:6400:0
Finally, I have to mention that using multiproto (not multiproto plus) and modified szap, I can tune to Next HD and get a lock (of course I can not watch the channel, I just get the message from modified szap that it has lock).
which multipro's version and szap do you use ? where from did you get szap ?
Modified szap does not work at all with multiproto plus.
it's strange. May be the version of multiproto_plus and multiproto is different ?
Moreover, using multiproto (not multiproto plus) and vdr-1.5.14 (with h264 patch) or vdr-1.5.12 (with dvb-s2 + h264 patch) I have exactly the same behaviour with vdr-1.7.0 and multiproto plus : channel not avaialble for all DVB-S2 channels.
what about the logs ? could you see un /var/syslog
