DiSEqC support???

[markbowen]

I've read other posts that MP 0.2.2 (and older) does not make the switch between LNBs when using DiSEqC, at least in some setups, and I did not find any solution. I have the same problem. Using a Twinhan/Skystar1, no CAM, BDA drivers. LNB1 is set to Astra 1 and LNB2 to Hotbird, but MP only successfully scans on LNB1. When the program goes to LNB2 it seems not to make the switch, so I get no signal on LNB2 (and obviously, none of the Hotbird channels).

In TV3, the default setup works flawlessly and scans across both satellites, but I can't seem to get it to work in TV2. Has anyone managed to do this successfully in TV2?

If TV3 works...... why not use it?

Good question. Perhaps I was not clear enough in my post. TV3 does work as far as implementing DiSEqC, but is still buggy in many, many other respects, and will obviously need more time to develop. TV2 is fairly solid in most other areas for me except this one. Hence, it makes more sense to me to try to sort out my few issues with TV2 now, and hope for the best in the continued development of TV3.

So, my question stands: Has anyone managed to get DiSEqC to work successfully in TV2, ideally with a similar setup?

does anyone know who to talk to about unofficial mdapi / softcam support? I guess some guys added support for this unofficially? Thanks for any info!
