Description

My Cinergy S2 HD USB receiver randomly fails to tune some QPSK transponders. It's almost always the same transponders but not all the time. This generated a lot of "No signal" errors.

I have had these problems since i first tried Tvheadend over a year ago.

I found out that it was when using S2API to tune the QPSK transponders. I have tried tuning the same transponders with szap and szap-s2 with the same results.

By using the attached patch I was able to completely eliminate my problem and Tvheadend now works flawlessly on my setup.

Some more information.

My Cinergy S2 HD USB is detected as Montage Technology DS3000/TS2020 in linux.
I run my setup on ArchLinux x86_64.

I've seen some forum posts with weird tuning errors with tuners based on the DS3000 chip. Hopefully this can help them too.
