Nobody is using Unicable/Single Cable Distribution/CSS CENELEC EN50494?

Alexander Tetzlav

Hi all,

i'm using a TV server with 4 DVB-S2 tuner (DD Cine S2 v6.0 with expansion module) for use with XBMC-PVR etc. as frontend. To get rid of cables i bought a Inverto Unicable LNB, so i can connect this LNB with ONE instead of FOUR wires.

This setup works fine with vdr, but i'm not 100% happy with the integration of XMBC-PVR and VDR-WebIF. Now i installed and want try to test tvheadend and was wondering that it doesnt support Unicable/SCR/EN50494. Really nobody is using this system? I thought its very common in Europe?

I searched in this forum and found not so much about this topic.

The SCR-kernel-patch is also no good solution.

Any plans to implement Unicable/SCR?

Hi,
im also a User with an Unicable Setup.
I patched my Kernel with the Kernel Patch you mentioned but i doesnt work, cant get any Channels.

But im using Kernel 3.2, not 3.1 maybe thats the fault?!

Did you try the Patch? Does it work?

Wir können uns aber auch gerne mal auf deutsch austauschen ;)
