[QUOTE="Bobnz, post: 1031212, member: 144144"] I am currently running MP 1.5.0 under Win 8 (had same problem under MP 1.4) My tuners are: [INDENT][LIST] [*]1x TBS6982 PCI-E DVB-S2 Dual Tuner TV card [*]3x Hauppauge PCI Nova-S+ [/LIST] - all with latest drivers[/INDENT] On my sat dish I have 2 types of LNB pointing to different satellites (with different symbol rates) [INDENT][LIST] [*]type A has a LOF of 10750MHz [*]type B has a LOF of 11300MHz [/LIST][/INDENT] This hardware combination worked well under Media Center but under MP the 2x LNB types do not co-exist. [INDENT]For example, if I use one tuner with its own cable to a LNB. I can scan; preview and watch it's channels. If I then tune another tuner with its own cable to the other LNB type, I can again scan; preview and watch channels. But the first tuner on the other LNB no longer gets its signal.[/INDENT] I get the same result regardless of which one I scan first and I have tried many combinations of the settings. I feel that because I enter a LOF for a particular card then it somehow makes other cards default to it; hence their signal loss. I note that when I go into the scanning page, select a card then 'advance tuning options' the LOF shown is not the one that should be associated to that card. I have searched the forum but could not find a solution - a recent thread had similar symptoms "tbs6985 tuner and MP TV no signal" but perhaps for different reasons. I suspect the few users would have a mix of LNB types. I attach a log in case it is of help. [INDENT]This test started at 11.30am - the 2x TBS cards were already pre-tuned to LNB A [INDENT]I checked for picture - success I ran a successful scan using a Hauppauge card to LNB B Checked for picture - success Rechecked picture for the TBS cards - now no signal[/INDENT][/INDENT] Because they are different satellites then maybe the different symbol rates are not remaining associated. Any ideas would be much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
