[mythtv-users] Can't tune to a particular DVB-S multiplex with one card but can with another conected to same source.

[Stephen Robertson]

Hi,

I've got a strange problem that I don't know how to diagnose.

One multiplex appears to not be able to be tuned by one of my cards
but the other doesn't have a problem.  This applies to both scheduled
recordings and live TV.

The cards are Hauppage Nova-HD-S2 and Turbosight TBS8922.  The
Hauppage is the one that is having problems.

Both are connected to the same source within Myth (as well as
physically to inputs on the same quad LNB), so if I understand things
correctly are using the same tuning information.

The multiplex I am having problems with (as far as I can figure from
http://www.lyngsat.com/Eutelsat-28A-and-Astra-1N-2A-2B.html) is on
10714H (Channel 4, Film4, Film+1 More 4 UK +1) (Freesat in the UK)

The backend log is below.  Are there other verbosity options that
would be useful to try?

The entry at 23:24:02 I think is when I changed channel.
adaptor1(TBS8922) seems to work, adaptor2(Nova-HD-S2) is the one with
the problem.

Thanks
Stephen
