Hi!
I have vdr 1.7.27, from yavdr 0.5.
I have two frontends, one has fixed dish to 1.0W and other is a motorized dish than can tune any satellite.
I have tried rotorng plugin, but I see that it's entirely possible to let VDR do the dish control with diseqc.conf.. this is my diseqc.conf file:
1: S1.0W 11700 V 9750 v t S1.0W 99999 V 10600 v T S1.0W 11700 H 9750 V t S1.0W 99999 H 10600 V T
2: S1.0W 11700 V 9750 t W15 [E0 31 6B 19] W15 v t S1.0W 99999 V 10600 t W15 [E0 31 6B 19] W15 v T S1.0W 11700 H 9750 t W15 [E0 31 6B 19] W15 V t S1.0W 99999 H 10600 t W15 [E0 31 6B 19] W15 V T
S13.0E 11700 V 9750 t W15 [E0 31 6B 13] W15 v t S13.0E 99999 V 10600 t W15 [E0 31 6B 13] W15 v T S13.0E 11700 H 9750 t W15 [E0 31 6B 13] W15 V t S13.0E 99999 H 10600 t W15 [E0 31 6B 13] W15 V T (other satellites here too, just two shown)
------------------------------
This works well. VDR moves the dish, works with rotorng disabled.
But the problem is, VDR seems to prefer frontend 2 for some reason. If frontend 2 is tuned to S13.0E and I switch to channel on S1.0W, I have to wait for the dish to turn.. Frontend 1 would have been tuned already!
It's worse if there is a timer recording on S1.0W. VDR chooses frontend 2 even if there is only one recording going. Then I can't switch to other satellites at all, the only moving dish is stuck to S1.0W..
Now, the obvious solution is to remove S1.0W from frontend2 config.. But then frontend2 can't help if there's duplicate timers on S1.0W.
Is there any way to make frontend1 higher priority, so it would be used first if it can tune?

Hi, maybe you can add a fake sat in souces.conf to your fixed dish, for example S1.1W, and use S1.0W to your rotor. I used something like this and work perfect.
Best regards.
