[QUOTE="Mew, post: 230098, member: 29012"] Hi wladko I am afraid I do not have any experience of using DiSEqC on multi LNBs. When I was using DVB-S with a Quad LNB set-up, it was a physical single LNB unit with one feedhorn but 4 outputs which could be controlled independently. I used two of these with one connected to each of my HVR-4000s. While I was tuned to 2 different satellites on each card they were very close together (at 28.5E and 28.8E) so TV Server only needed to use one LNB for each card to scan. I think there are issues with the HVR-4000 as has been posted on the Hauppage forums ([URL="http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/board/showthread.php?t=14207"]http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/board/showthread.php?t=14207[/URL]) by chemelli (who is also posts on these forums). Another thread is here [URL="http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/board/showthread.php?t=13647"]http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/board/showthread.php?t=13647[/URL] This is possibly what is causing the problem, if I understand the posts correctly, as you say you are experiencing it in all software, not just MediaPortal. I am still using v3.4b of the drivers. I didn't switch to v4.0 because it said they didn't support HD. That said, from what I understand, the older drivers didn't support DVB-S2 properly as there were parameters missing. This was mentioned on these forums and I don't know if it has been fixed. I am not sure if Hauppauge's not about the drivers being "Standard Definition only" is because they are Media Center of Vista drivers and Media Center and Vista do not support non-USA HD (only Vista supports USA HD). I probably could switch to 4.0 (or 4.1 that seemed to change quickly from being the current driver to pre-release) as I am currently only using DVB-T and it is working fine for me. I have put up my new satellite dish but can not get any signal. It may be due to some trees that I did not think were in the line of sight of the satellite but may be. I may have to resort to calling in a professional installer when I get round to it. I am sorry I couldn't be any more help. Mew [/QUOTE]
