Problems with diseqc - The Return - Part 1

Hi, Prog,

Did some testing with version 6.80 of the diseqc state.
Will divide this in parts, its something long and confusing.

1- First, did a test without the new options "Lock turner" and "Send diseqc" as picture
Image
and found it will send diseqc messages only when changing satellites, both in channel lists or in "Diseqc 1.2 Positioner" tab. Thats seems Ok!

2- Did a test with this option
Image
and found it works as the previous, only send messages when changing satellites, it is useless. Seems Not Ok!

3 - Did a test with this options
Image
and found it sends diseqc message every channel or satellite change, and too in every frequency change in "Diseqc 1.2 Positioner" tab.
This seems strange, because the "send diseqc every..." is not choosed.

4 - Did a test with this selection
Image
and found it works as above, sends messages all cases.
Is this ok? No, the latest option do the same... So this becomes useless.

Concluding, it works, but cant clearly understand use of cases 2, 3 and mainly 4 :wink:

Hi, Prog,
These are related, but something different issues. Hope people help with new insights every case.

I would suggest the options above should be "standard", always on.
So we dont loose time trying to understand how and when they work.
