When background EIT scanning is enabled, I am getting signal disruption about every 21 seconds, with my dual sony playtv tuners (2 playtv boxes each with two tuners).
The signal level is mostly constant at 70% with solid problemfree reception otherwise.
I've heard that the nova-t 500 cards can have issues with disruption when the second tuner on a card is tuning, so I presume this is a similar problem, as the hardware is mostly the same. Is VDR really tuning to a new channel every 21 seconds?
It's actually 20 seconds - see cEITScanner::ScanTimeout.
Is it possible to limit EIT scans to a designated frontend?
No. Any frontend that is currently not occupied otherwise is assumed to be available for EIT scanning. Maybe there is a bug in the driver that prevents the two frontends from tuning independently?
