--- Comment #2 from knossos456 <knossos...@gmail.com> --- Thanks for the answers. For point 1 : Yes you'r right, actual kernel path request for dvbloopback is not a clean solution. For point 2 , ok i will look more in new lib For point 3 : yes 1 have low c/n but is working very good under windows . So i need to patch this section. 2016-12-02 10:17 GMT+01:00 Mauro Carvalho Chehab <bugzilla_nore...@kde.org>: > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=372667 > > --- Comment #1 from Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+...@kernel.org> --- > (In reply to knossos456 from comment #0) > > Thanks for your effort to made this project still active. > > Thanks for the report. > > > I'm a Kaffeine user since many years. > > Recently, I've upgaded to Ubuntu 16 LTS because big progresses on VDPAU > > subject, wasen't working before on my ATI 5450 card.. > > On actual version of Kaffeine 1.22 , I have ony 1 bug: Diseqc from > > position 2. > > I can scan Diseqc position 2 ( Astra 28), but when channel is memorized > > , the corresponding Diseqc attribute seems not in database ... > > All is OK for Diseqc 0 ( Astra 19) and Diseqc 1 ( hotbird 13 ) > > > > So i have removed Kaffeine and try new version 2.05 > > list of bugs: > > 1) Virtual cards ( like dvbloopback that is needed for descrambling ) > > causes Kaffeine + Ubuntu crash .
