My dvb-s LNB is a Ku-Band LNBG DKF-2024.
The box says: Input 11.70-12.50 Ghz L.O. 10.75 Ghz Noise 0.6dB Gain 60dB
If I set VDR up as follows: Use DiSEqC: no SLOF (MHz): 10750 Low LNB frequency (MHz): 11700 High LNB frequency (MHz): 12500
No idea, just guessing, try rearranging your values in the same sort order a my 'it works for me' section,
High LNB frequency (MHz): 11700 Low LNB frequency (MHz): 10750 High LNB frequency (MHz): 12500
When I change channels I get: Sep 25 21:15:18 localhost vdr: [2058] ERROR: frontend 0/0: Invalid argument Sep 25 21:15:18 localhost kernel: DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 frequency 12456000 out of range (950000..2150000)
Thanks - changed my settings to: Use DiSEqC: no SLOF (MHz): 12500 Low LNB frequency (MHz): 10750 High LNB frequency (MHz): 11700
and I no longer the the "out of range error" which is progress I guess!!
But I still get these errors and no picture on any channels: Sep 26 08:38:28 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 2 Sep 26 08:38:30 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 2, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:39:35 localhost vdr: [1531] ERROR: /var/cache/vdr/epg.data.$$$: No such file or directory Sep 26 08:39:35 localhost vdr: [1531] ERROR (epg.c,1160): No such file or directory Sep 26 08:39:38 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 16, tp 112483 Sep 26 08:39:58 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 3 Sep 26 08:40:08 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 3, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:40:08 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 4 Sep 26 08:40:17 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 4, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:40:18 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 5 Sep 26 08:40:26 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 5, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:40:27 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 6 Sep 26 08:40:36 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 6, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:40:36 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 7 Sep 26 08:40:45 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 7, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:40:46 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 8 Sep 26 08:40:54 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 8, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:40:55 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 9 Sep 26 08:41:03 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 9, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:41:04 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 10 Sep 26 08:41:13 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 10, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:41:13 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 11 Sep 26 08:41:22 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 11, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:41:23 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 12 Sep 26 08:41:31 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 12, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:41:32 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 13 Sep 26 08:41:41 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 13, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:41:41 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 14 Sep 26 08:41:50 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 14, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:41:51 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 15 Sep 26 08:41:59 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 15, tp 112456 Sep 26 08:42:00 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 16 Sep 26 08:42:09 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 16, tp 112483 Sep 26 08:42:10 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 17 Sep 26 08:42:19 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 17, tp 112483 Sep 26 08:42:19 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 18 Sep 26 08:42:28 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 18, tp 112483 Sep 26 08:42:28 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 19 Sep 26 08:42:37 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 19, tp 112483 Sep 26 08:42:38 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 20 Sep 26 08:42:47 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 20, tp 112483 Sep 26 08:42:48 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 21 Sep 26 08:42:56 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 21, tp 112483 Sep 26 08:42:56 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 22 Sep 26 08:43:05 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 22, tp 112483 Sep 26 08:43:06 localhost vdr: [1531] switching to channel 23 Sep 26 08:43:15 localhost vdr: [1535] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel 23, tp 112483

I think I may have a driver problem - not sure if the dm1105 chipset on my dvb-s card is well supported in Linux even though scan seems to work fine: ./scan dvb-s/OptusB1-NZ -l 11300 -x 0 scanning dvb-s/OptusB1-NZ using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' initial transponder 12456000 H 22500000 9 initial transponder 12483000 H 22500000 9
