What's your LNBf? Yes, exiting just after if (ioctl (d->frontend, FE_ENABLE_HIGH_LNB_VOLTAGE, &val) < 0 && val) makes it work. And not only the before missing channels, but all channels. (This also applies to a scan, which will complete with more channels when it "works"). My LNBf is a AP82-T2B ( http://www.dueemme.com/catalogo/10.40.html ) with two connectors. With more testing, it turns out this effect is also there with for instance w_scan. Attached are two files, both generated with w_scan -f s -c DE -s S19.2E2 -L > Astraplaylist_after_vlc.xspf , with vlc shortly running between the scans with a channels file as playlist. >From those files, the "directly working" channels and those missing can be seen by comparison. (A few might be missing due to random effects). From this list: http://de.satexpat.com/sat/ost/19.2/ for instance, 11837 H 27500 3/4 DVB-S QPSK group, including "Das Erste", is always missing without the workaround. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
