    Hi,i already posted this but i think it was in the wrong place because seems to be a TV-Server issue.
    I'm wondering if is possible to change (switch) channel from dvb-t to dvb-s(and viceversa)using a hybrid card in MediaPortal with Tv-server 0.3 because after i've tried all configurations in TV-server it's not working.So if i'm watching a dvb-t chanel and try to switch on a dvb-s channel ends up with this error "Unable to start timeshifting. Unknown error occured ":(.I am using only the dvb-t and dvb-s part of the card,analog it's disabled in tv server.
    Hope someone can help me.Thank you!

    Seems nobody cares

    Hey guys i can't believe none of you cares about this problem and i can tell you it's not only my problem and i'm not asking help only for me(i'm using right now GBPVR and is working very well so it's not a hardware problem)but i think it could help improving MP that i consider it's the best HTPC application.I even tried to fixit my self using misterd patch here:https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1780588&group_id=107397&atid=647927 but with no luck because i know nothing about programing.Still i think is a timing problem and needs only a flag or something that lock the first tuner and unlock the other so timeshifting can start.If u are intrested fixing that let me know and i will help you testing.Thank you!

    If the devs need more information, you can find them in the bugreport thread: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/hybrid_card_unknown_channel-t23721p2.html
    There other users have tested the patch succesfully and I also explained the reason for these problems. The reason is as Pretoriano guessed something like a timing problem. The problem is that a hybrid card has common object for all card components and so the server stops the wrong part. My patch only adds additional conditions and checks to prevent that the right card is stopped.
    I can post an updated version of the patch, if the devs need it.l
