VP 1041: Is anybody able to tune to DVBS2 or DSS?
Thanks for the answer Tim!
That's a good point - I do have a switch. I will try bypassing it but do you still send the diseqc commands or I have to get rid of them?

Yes, I have the Skystar HD2 tuning to DVB-S2 transponders using the replacement szap.c mentioned on the wiki page, then listing the channels using 'scan -c -a <n>' to prove proper reception, all using the current mantis tree. No hacks were needed, it works out of the box every time now that the mantis tree has been updated to support the HD2 card (same one as the VP-1041).
If you are using a Diseqc switch then get rid of it for now, mine was causing lots of unreliability. I tried three different types of Diseqc switch, all were the same. Got rid of them then it all started working.

Hi, I am curious to find out if anybody is able to use Twinhan/ Azurware VP-1041 with the mantis drivers to tune to standards other than DVBS - DVBS2 and DSS? Thanks, Simeon

Simeon,
It doesn't matter re: the diseqc commands, with no switch present will be nothing listening, assuming there is nothing else connected such as a rotor.

The SEC equipment should work fine AFAICS. The bad aspect of the tests were that no one really came up with any real logs that could really reproduced a driver bug or a hardware bug.
Nevertheless, there had been an interesting post on the VDR mailing list.
