VDR mit 2 TV-Karten

gr4vity · 22. Januar 2018

Hello,

First of all, i'm sorry i don't speak german.

Is it possible to use 2 TV-cards with VDR?

I have the following setup:

1- Technisat Skystar Express HD PCIe connected to Hotbird 13.0E

2- Technisat Skystar USB HD connected to Nilesat 7.0W

In VDR - Setup - LNB there are

Use Diseqc : no

SLOF (MHz) : 11700

Low LNB Frequency (MHz) : 9750

High LNB Frequency (MHz) : 10600

Device 1 connected to sat cable : own / 1 / 2

Device 2 connected to sat cable : own / 1 / 2

Use dish positioner : no

Enable power saving : no

Best regards.

Hello,

I don't have such a setup, but in my opinion it should work when you configure the diseqc.conf file accordingly and enable DiSEqC in VDR. I believe the right way to configure this is described at http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Diseqc.conf in the section "Einträge einem oder mehreren DVB Tunern zuordnen" (try using Google translate to get it into English).

Hi,

first you need to know via the Femon-Plugin (signal strength in OSD) if both tuners work, when both are on the same satellite.

Hi,

@mighty-p, thank you for replying.

I don't use diseqc.

What i have is 2 dishes

- Dish (1) LNB aimed @ Hotbird 13.0E .... connected to Technisat Skystar Express HD PCIe

- Dish (2) LNB aimed @ Nilesat 7.0W .... connected to Technisat Skystar USB HD

The problem is the 1st TV-card is working, i get no signal lock if i switch to the 2nd TV-card.

That setup can be done using OpenPLi Enigma2 as you can see in the attachment.

Regarding VDR i can't select which satellite should be used by which TV-card.

I attached VDR LNB setup as well

Device 1 connected to sat cable : own / 1 / 2

Device 2 connected to sat cable : own / 1 / 2

Should i use own, 1 or 2?

Best regards

@SurfaceCleanerZ, thanks for replying.

Femon-Plugin works with the 1st TV-card only, there is no signal with the 2nd TV-card.

Best regards

I've understood that you don't use DiSEqC in your system, but (as you also say) somehow you need to tell the VDR that Hotbird is connected to your TV card #1 and Nilesat to TV card #2. Otherwise you cannot be sure that it uses the right card, which may be the reason why it seems the 2nd card is not working. My interpretation of the VDR-Wiki page is that your scenario is covered via the diseqc.conf file even though you don't use DiSEqC for real. You can give it a try.

The other idea I would have, is to use the CAID field in the channels.conf to bind every channel to the right device.

Hi,

Why you dont use diseqc. Give it a try (vdr settings in the OSD).

Is the usb tiner working, when you only attach it? If thos is not working, this is the first thing to do.

@SurfaceCleanerZ

Thanks a lot guys,

I used diseqc, now problem is solved

The right disecq.conf should be as follows:

It's a different scenario because i decided to use 1st tuner for Nilesat and 2nd tuner for Hotbird.

1:

S7W 11700 V 9750 t v W50 [E0 00 00] W50 [E0 00 03] W150 [E0 10 38 F4] W50 t

S7W 11700 H 9750 t V W50 [E0 00 00] W50 [E0 00 03] W150 [E0 10 38 F6] W50 t

S7W 99999 V 10600 t v W50 [E0 00 00] W50 [E0 00 03] W150 [E0 10 38 F5] W50 T

S7W 99999 H 10600 t V W50 [E0 00 00] W50 [E0 00 03] W150 [E0 10 38 F7] W50 T

2:

S13E 11700 V 9750 t v W50 [E0 00 00] W50 [E0 00 03] W150 [E0 10 38 F0] W50 t

S13E 11700 H 9750 t V W50 [E0 00 00] W50 [E0 00 03] W150 [E0 10 38 F2] W50 t

S13E 99999 V 10600 t v W50 [E0 00 00] W50 [E0 00 03] W150 [E0 10 38 F1] W50 T

S13E 99999 H 10600 t V W50 [E0 00 00] W50 [E0 00 03] W150 [E0 10 38 F3] W50 T
