[QUOTE="Chipsa, post: 204405, member: 55886"] Hi, ok, I understand that MP supports dish rotation using Diseqc, the card I would like to use is FloppyDTV S2. But my point was if I have to switch the satelite somewhere in the menu of mediaportal by my self or if I select a channel the MP automatically redirects the dish to the given satelite / LNB. The thing is I want to have the HTPC as user friendly as possible and I dont want to go through tons of menu options before I switch to another satelite. The WAF (wife acceptance factor) plays also a role :D I was also thinking about having 2 LNBs on 1 dish and use a diseqc switch, which is faster. But one of the main reasons I'm getting the S2 version of FloppyDTV is that it can recieve HD channels. And I'm not sure that having 2 LNBs on 1 dish can ensure the signal to be strong enough for HD reception. Do you have any experience with that? The two sats im considering are 19.2E and 23.5E ... :thx: [/QUOTE]
