Hello
I have 2x DVB-C cards with Alphacrypt multi-cams. A TT-1500-C budget card and a TT-2300-C FF card and run vdr-xine.
When recording one channel and attempting to watch another in the same transport stream, or trying to switch to another transport stream (and hence card) I get "channel not available" messages. After switching back and forth to other transport streams, usually I can overcome this problem. But occasionally I it won't play any channels in one specific transport stream or another.
What's the best way to diagnose this? How do I enable debugging to see more info than is displayed in messages:
