[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1014866, member: 82144"] Hello again gurabli The card itself works. If you can read German: [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/erfahrungsbericht-dvbsky-s952-dvb-s2-doppel-tuner.106767/[/url] I've told you I can't confirm if DiSEqC motor control would work already from any information I have, and I've also told you we can only know if it would work for sure by finding somebody who has it working. That isn't what I said. I said it would probably be possible but might require nasty hacks and workarounds. It will be much easier in the new TV engine. I think "non working" is quite a strong term. We do the best we can to support a wide variety of hardware, but it is difficult for the devs to support hardware when they don't own it (ie. they can't test). I don't know of any dev on the team who has any DVBSky satellite tuner, let alone the specific tuner you're asking about. Please be aware that most people don't care about DiSEqC support, let alone motor support. That is why nobody has responded to your threads. Really, your requirements are quite specific... ;) MP 1.4 may be okay for you, but please trust me when I say I have been through this before. Other people will want the patch, and some of them will ask for support for new versions of MP. Don't forget that we are trying to move to a more frequent release cycle - with more releases there will be more demand for updated patches and more work for me. I understand that the card is attractive and I understand why you're asking me to add support. Here is my position: [LIST=1] [*]I don't have any DVBSky tuner. [*]I don't have a satellite dish. [*]I don't have a switch. [*]I don't have a motor. [*]I don't have a lot of time. [*]I'm already working on a lot of things. [*]I want to focus on different things. [/LIST] It will be time-consuming and tricky for me to help you. Nevertheless, against my better judgement I say: if you will buy the card and provide remote access to your PC I will commit to help create a patch for MP 1.4. To be very clear, I make no commitment for future versions of MP. Do you agree? :) mm [/QUOTE]
