Hi DMAN,

many thanks for working on that so quickly 8)

I could see the new checkbox for external power supply in the setup dialogue, and it does something with the external antenna power, but unfortunately it is not yet very reliable.

I managed once to watch TV with external antenna power on, but that was after I enabled the power with the technotrend application, exited from technotrend app and started MP afterwards.

For the next test I did not enable power via technotrend app. When starting MP, the external power was on for 1-2 seconds (my antenna has a power LED) but then went off again. It did not turn on when entering the TV viewer.

At then next test cycle, the TV viewer totally hung and I had to log off and log on again to get the process killed.

I have also seen that the external power went on once when entering the setup utility, but also went off again.

So, you are tweaking the right settings, but unfortunately this is not very reliable yet.

Let me know if I should run more tests and send you some logs etc.

Many thanks and cheers,

donmiguel
