I'm running vdr 1.3.37 with a diseqc 2.0 switch. The problem I seem to have is that switching between ports on the switch doesn't work cleanly. Often it will not switch and give me a black screen.
Can someone please confirm whether I have the right diseqc settings? This is what I have --
# EchoStar 7 - 119W - Port 1 S119.0W 99999 V 11250 t v W15 [E0 10 38 F0] S119.0W 99999 H 11250 t V W15 [E0 10 38 F0]
# EchoStar 6/8 - 110W - Port 2 S110.0W 99999 V 11250 t v W15 [E0 10 38 F4] S110.0W 99999 H 11250 t V W15 [E0 10 38 F4]

Hhm, they don't look wrong, but I must admit that I cannot access those satellites.
You may want to try the attached patch which repeats the DiSEqC message every 1000 ms until the tuner gets a lock on the signal. This should avoid the black screen with an additional delay of a little bit more then a second.
Bye.

Wow, that patch seems to have done it! Thanks!!
