Hi all,
i have a problem with the following situation in method
DVBRecorder::StartRecording():
:
- During a heavy rainfall the signal get's worse and worse until the the
poll() function
times out (ret==0) so i saw the "No data from card in 1 second" message.
(So i guess this works as expected)
- After the rain with now normal receive conditions, the timeout on
poll() doesn't go
away.
Restarting the backend or channel change doesn't help.
The szap utility from linux-dvb-apps-1.1.0 shows perfect values
(status 1f signal 'a...', snr 'b...', ber=0 and unc=0)
The onliest solution i saw was the reboot of the system.
After rebooting everything works again. (No timeout on poll())
I have a Technisat SkyStar 2 DVB card.
Anyone else with the same problem?
Kind regards
Lothar
