The next version of neumoDVB and the neumo drivers will also support unicable-2 (JESS, scr...) to some degree:
-tuning (including blind)
-only unicable 2 (due to lack of devices for testing)
-no spectrum scan
Here is an example of 6 channels from different muxes running over a single cable from the lnb to a tbs-6909X.
And here is how it uses tuners and frontends:
On this card, 8 muxes are possible with this software, but on each mux, it is also possible to
watch or stream multiple services simultaneously. On the tbs6916, up to 16 muxes could be used.
To configure a unicable LNB, the user needs to add a unicable channel list to the lnb definition according to the values
supported by the lnb. My LNB supports 32 user bands, but I configured only 8,
It is also possible to disable unicable on some of the LNB connections. For example, my LNB only has unicable on
3 of its ports. The other port behaves like a standard universal LNB. In the screenshot below, the unversal lnb output
is connected to port 1 of the tbs6916, and the missing check mark in the unicable column informs neumoDVB of this.
One unicable lnb output is connected to the 6909x card, and the two remaining ones to the 6916. Although it is against
the unicable-2 protocol, the unicable lnb is behind a diseqc switch, and that works fine as well.
The software will be released soon. Driver updates are needed as well.
