Re: [linux-dvb] VP 1041: Is anybody able to tune to DVBS2 or DSS?

Thanks for the answer Tim!

That's a good point - I do have a switch. I will try bypassing it but
do you still send the diseqc commands or I have to get rid of them?

Yes, I have the Skystar HD2 tuning to DVB-S2 transponders using the  
replacement szap.c mentioned on the wiki page, then listing the  
channels using 'scan -c -a <n>' to prove proper reception, all using  
the current mantis tree. No hacks were needed, it works out of the box  
every time now that the mantis tree has been updated to support the  
HD2 card (same one as the VP-1041).

If you are using a Diseqc switch then get rid of it for now, mine was  
causing lots of unreliability. I tried three different types of Diseqc  
switch, all were the same. Got rid of them then it all started working.
