Since my upgrade from VDR 1.6.0 to 1.7.16 I can't view my local ITV1 region (ITV1 Mer South) on Freesat. The EPG appears normal, but there's no picture or sound. ITV1 is OK on Freeview, as is the London version on Freesat. The log says:
Jan 11 18:07:57 htpc vdr: [10023] switching to channel 103 Jan 11 18:07:57 htpc vdr: [10023] setstatus 0 Jan 11 18:08:06 htpc vdr: [10027] frontend 0/0 timed out while tuning to channel+ 103, tp 110891
The channels.conf entry (which I've checked is up-to-date) is:
ITV1 Mer South;BSkyB:10891:hC56:S28.2E:22000:3336=2:3337=eng@4:2344:0:10140:2:20+53:0
I've written my scan script to substitute BSkyB as the provider instead of Freesat because VDR was picking up the BSkyB SDT instead of Freesat's when I was using the Freesat patch, but I'm not sure whether that's the case with the EEPG plugin.
My VDR versions are now:
* vdr 1.7.16-1devel2 from Tobias Grimm's Debian sid repository. * vdr-plugin-eepg 0.0.3-28yavdr1 built from yavdr's vdr-unstable deb source

^^^^^^

110891 is not the same as 10891.
BTW, this is my entry for it
ITV1 Meridian S;BSkyB:10891:HC56M2O0S0:S28.2E:22000:3336=2:3337=eng@4:2344:0:10140:2:2053:0
I just checked and I can see and hear it, and I have one full week of epg (with the eepg plugin).
My VDR versions are now:
- vdr 1.7.16-1devel2 from Tobias Grimm's Debian sid repository.
- vdr-plugin-eepg 0.0.3-28yavdr1 built from yavdr's vdr-unstable deb
source
I'm also using vdr-1.7.16 and eepg-0.0.3 (both self compiled).

110891 is not the same as 10891.
Strange. That's definitely what it says in the log. Does tp show the frequency it's trying to tune to, or is it adding an extra 1 in the log for some reason?
I didn't think of trying to tune to other channels on that transponder, and I can't ATM because the family are watching a recording. I'll let you know later.

Essentially the same as mine I think.

Well, yours is missing some of the parameters (i.e. it's missing the M2O0S0), and the TID seems wrong (20+53 instead of 2053), so I doubt that your entry has been auto updated by vdr.

None of my other channels have the M, O and S parameters either but they work. If that is the cause I guess it's only the M that's important without DVB-S2. I'll rewrite my script to include that.
The + got into my message by accident, I must have pasted it from vim which uses + as a wrap indicator.

I think it was a bad connection on my satellite cable. I tried it in my old Sky box and that tuned to Meridian OK. When I connected it back to my PC VDR was then able to tune too. Strange how it only affected certain channels. Maybe mythtv will work now...
