[mythtv-users] Mythtv and Diseqc

Hi,

I am now trying to setup my first Mythbox and I'm running into some trouble
with my Sat card and Diseqc.

I have a SkySat2 card, hooked up to a satellite with 2 LNB's which point to
Astra 19.2 and Astra 28.2.  Disceqc is used to swap between these two LNB's.

I am running Fedora core 5, and I have successfully installed the card, and
scandvb can get a channel listing from both satellites, if I use the -s
flag.  For example, for Astra 19.2 on the first port I run:
scandvb -s 0 Astra-19.2E | tee ~/astra1_channels.conf

And for Astra 2:
scandvb -s 1 Astra-28.2E | tee ~/astra2_channels.conf

It finds all these channels without any problem.

However, when it comes to Mythtv and channel scanning I run into problems.
It can see the Astra 19.2 sat on the first port, however it cannot see
anything to do with the Astra 28.2 on the other port.  Does anyone have any
suggestions why this might be, or how I can get this to work?

Thanks very much!
