so why can I get ts streams from the second dvb card and vdr doesn't get any bytes ?
As you can see from the above lines, tuning fails for device 2 (= frontend 1) as VDR reports a timeout about 10 seconds after switching to this channel. VDR retries tuning in that case, but further reports are suppressed for the next 60 seconds so you don't see a second timeout report.
Finally, after 30 seconds, the recording thread issues an emergency exit as it didn't see any data (=> video data stream broken) as the device was not able to tune to the channel.
Is your DiSEqC setup correct (in case you are using DiSEqC)?
I don't have a diseqc setup, I have a twin lnb and both dvb cards are connected directly.
It worked in the past, ok many timeouts, but after reloading the driver and restart of vdr it worked.
I was amazed that vdr can not tune to a channel and szap can do it without reloading the driver !
Maybe they use differnt methods to switch the channels.
