DVB-S only finds 2 new channels but 200+ updated (1 Viewer)

I've been trying to install a DVB-S USB box with Mediaportal. It's one of the cheap ones off eBay. It works fine with BlazeDTV and finds all the Freesat channels.

When I try it with MeadiaPortal it doesn't find any channels if I leave the LNB frequencies on default but if I set it to LOF1 9750 LOF2 10600 as they are in Blaze it seems to find them but says they are updated rather than new so they don't get added to the channel list.

I'm not sure what LNB Switch frequency should be? I don't think I have one? I've just got a standard sky digital lnb.

If anyone can help that would be great. I'm running XP and the USB jobbie's driver is called "DVB-S LME BDA"

Did you select 28.2E astra in the config ( last box ) and tick lnb 1 on the config page?

edit : sorry I see from your pics you did, not sure you need to tick the override defaults box tho'

Thanks for your reply. If I don't check the override defaults box it doesn't find any channels at all. Which is strange as I'm sure the values I'm using are the defaults....

What LNB band do you use?

Is it possible to add DVB-S channels manually? Then if the problem is only with the tuning I could still use the card.
