Disecq motor won't move (1 Viewer)

[bakra]

I'm trying to move the dish. The current position is Astra 19.2 east. I'm trying to move it to Hispasat 30 west. But there is no movement at all.
I enabled Disecq motor. Do I have to do something else?
It does work fine when I use the standalone utility SS2Disecq19

Frodo maybe?

I've reported Skystar2 motor problem already two months ago. It is documented in this thread: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/diseqc_motor_support-t14244.html?t=14244

Frodo, which driver could we expect the motor support to work with? WDM or BDA? OR hacked MBI WDM? I don't think Technisat support diseqc motors so I guess any API for moving the dish would not be implimentd in their drivers??? And wouldn't the hacked driver only work with the software it was hacked to work with (SS2Disecq.exe)?? Frodo It's not reasonalbe to ask for a fix on this if you even don't have a SS2 but do you have any ideas? I'm thinking I might just pick up a twinhain card; I was thinking of getting a second DVB-S card anyway.

You don't need hacked drivers for the latest ss2diseqc - it works fine with normal ones (both 440 and 441 beta). Technisat don't like this, but they don't actively stop motor control either.

However, afaik you will need to use WDM regardless, cos there's no way of passing motor controls through BDA.

Any update?

Is there any update to this problem? There was an SVN committ on 26.02.2007 concerning this issue, does that fix the problem? If not, is there any way at all of using a motorised system with this card in mediaportal?
