Hello,
Which three cards do you have?
card 0: Hauppauge budget CI card 1: Geniatech budget card 2: Geniatech budget
If I didn't drop a line while analysing the output, it seems that card 0 locks always, card 1 misses some locks and card 2 misses more locks.
To test whether this is a switch or card issue, would you mind permuting the cables on your cards?
Of course I don't mind :)
For example: plug the cable on card 0 into card 2 and vice versa and run the test again. If card 2 locks always now, then it looks like a switch issue.
With the original configuration, what happens if you run the inner szap loop in parallel on the three cards?
I have tried with a new type of LNB and with another diseqc, so all changed... without any improvment, I think I have to put my dish "right" again after all those testings before doing some more try :-)
Hhm, a quick look into cx88-mpeg.c shows that a DMA transfer timed out in this case. Don't know what this means. Maybe a driver developer can tell you more.
BTW: what has changed in your setup recently, as I you didn't report such issues in the past?
I was having 2 FF cards, and I got tuning problem on one card, since it seemed FF cards suffer from bad diseqc sending message, I bought two FF cards, but apparently, it wasn't just a card problem, unless my cards are broken...
I'll report here ASAP, thank you very much,
