I've been using VDR for a long time with one DVB-C card. Now I've added a second, identical card (Technotrend DVB-C 2.1).
I get a picture, but it's of very low quality and breaking up all the time.
How have you wired the 2 cards to your one cable cable? The direct cable signal is usually not able to drive 2 receivers.
Do you have error messages in /var/log/syslog?
Do I have to do something special to get this setup to work properly? Suggestions?
- Use the new card "in place" of the old to make sure that this new card is not DOA
- Place the new card (alone) into the intended slot.
- use different slots
- Use the old card as second board
- Remove all hardware not required
- Tell the BIOS to reassign the PCI resourses
VDR: 1.3.27 DVB: latest CVS
Here's the lspci output for the cards (formatted for readability):
0000:00:0b.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01) Subsystem: Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH Technotrend/Hauppauge DVB card rev2.1 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 Memory at cfffce00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
0000:00:0d.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01) Subsystem: Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH Technotrend/Hauppauge DVB card rev2.1 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 5 Memory at cfffcc00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Are those interrupt shared?
