Hi,

Hi!

I'm trying to track down a problem with lnbsharing and software decoding, and am stuck at understanding what cDevice::Receiving should actually return.

I have two budget dvb-s cards, and use softdevice for output.

The patch runs i through 0...numDevices and queries device[i]->Receiving(). But for all 3 devices the call to Receiving() returns 0? Shouldn't at least one of the devices receive the currently viewed channel?

vdr tuned to channel 1, channelswitch to channel 2:

Apr 24 21:18:02 (none) user.err vdr: [15119] GMBP channel 2 device 0 LNB 1 LNBstate 1 can provide channel 1 prio -1 receiving 0 Apr 24 21:18:02 (none) user.err vdr: [15119] GMBP channel 2 device 1 LNB 1 LNBstate 1 can provide channel 1 prio -1 receiving 0 Apr 24 21:18:02 (none) user.err vdr: [15119] GMBP channel 2 device 2 LNB 1 LNBstate 1 can provide channel 0 prio -1 receiving 0

What is the call to Receiving supposed to return? If it's always returning 0 I have an idea why lnbsharing doesn't work for me :-)

I don't know about lnbshare, but Receiving() (without parameter) returns true if there are any receivers on that device with a priority 0 or higher.

The live view using transfer mode is using priority -1, so it does not show up.
