[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 760360, member: 82144"] Hi Andrew I have to say that I'm *really* confused after reading your post. Let me try and get this straight: You have three LNBs on 2 dishes for access to Optus D1, Optus D2, and IS5. D1 LNB LOF = 10750 MHz D2 LNB LOF = 10750 MHz IS5 LNB LOF = 5150 MHz Dish 1 = D1 Dish 2 = D2 + IS5 Nova S Plus -> dish 1 HVR 3000 -> dish 2 Is that right? Assuming it is, let me try and answer your questions. Just a note: be careful that you turn off *everything* connected to your LNBs before you change cables around. You risk damage to your tuners. Okay, I have absolutely no idea what you mean by "addressed", but I think you're referring to the LNB LOF settings. If you *don't* use the override frequencies then the settings are independent. If you *do* use the override frequencies then the override frequency settings are applied to *all* tuners. This is a problem that I hope to resolve in MP 1.3.0. In your case, you should try using the "Ku-Circular" band setting for Optus D1 and D2, and the "C-band" setting for IS5. That should give you independent LNB access. If it doesn't work then let me know - there is a work-around. Well, there *is* code for supporting DiSEqC with Hauppauge cards. I would have to concur that my Hauppauge Nova S Plus is not able to switch with 22k or DiSEqC... but it doesn't work in *any* software, including WinTV! I think Hauppauge may have issues with switch compatibility. I'm in contact with them about this. It would be helpful to know if DiSEqC/22k switching works in other software for you... Huh? The driver name has absolutely no bearing on the LNB settings. Tuners can always be given separate settings. The problem you're hitting is a TV Server code limitation as explained above. It is easy to work around. :) Yes, exactly - the LNB LOF overrides apply globally. You shouldn't use them unless you absolutely have to. Try the other "band" settings as suggested. Note that the other settings (frequency, symbol rate etc.) only affect the single scan. mm [/QUOTE]
