Question: If I now by a second budget card (slot available), is there any way that vdr would use those two budgets but not the tuner of the FF-card?
[..] I have the same configuration. You can use the SourceCaps-patch to disable the broken card's tuner. An example. Lets assume that your first card is broken and that your second and third card can receive astra and hotbird. Then you would need to add the following lines to your channels.conf (after applying the SourceCaps patch): SourceCaps = 1 S1.0W SourceCaps = 2 S19.2E S13.0E SourceCaps = 3 S19.2E S13.0E
You can exchange S1.0W for any other source which you can not receive.
Hope this helps, Christian
Thanks a lot! I will try as soon as possible.
