Invacom QPH-031 Specifications

LNB setting not available for a local oscillator frequency of 10750.

Transponder frequency range 11700 to 12200.

Is it possible to add a user definable custom range?

No. The changes should be done at libdvbv5 instead, at lib/libdvbv5/dvb-sat.c. The rationale is that we want to be able to support all used LNBf types with not only Kaffeine, but also with text-mode utils and other apps that rely on libdvbv5.

I just added support for it at libdvbv5 (on both development and 1.12 stable branches):

https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/commit/?id=44da55aa2af3254fc0e3a904a78c518361ab34f1

While this is not backported, you'll need to get v4l-utils from its source, though.

Fixed by adding support for the Invacom QPH-031 LNBf at libdvbv5.
