Lof1, LofSW, Lof2 in TVServer ? (2 Viewers)

[Rhys.Goodwin]

but why is the switch parameter specified for each channel as well

 

[Frodo]

Well as explained the lof1/lof2/lnb switch are need to tune to a specific transponder
A transponder can hold multi radio/tv channels
All channels in the transponder have the same lof1/lof2/lnb switch settings

However if we look at tv3. TV3 stores all tuning information for a channel in the database. So for a channel it stores frequency, fec rate, pids and the lof1/lof2/lnb switch
Offcourse all channels of the transponder have the same lof1/lof2/lnb switch settings, but tv3 doesnt care about that

I can scan channels in with the TV server (110 and 119 birds) but can't seem to find the proper settins in order to come even close to getting them all. Anyone have special ini settings and lof settings they use that work for them with the 110 and 119 birds using DishPro? I am at whits end almost. Thanks!

debennett2,

You need to convert your ini files to work with the dishpro. To do that, just subtract 25600 from all of the H frequencies to turn them into V. For example, TP2 on Echostar7 is 12239 H. ABS (12239-25600) = 13661 V. Do that for all the H frequencies and you should be ok. Also, you need to override LOF settings and use LOF1: 11250, LOF2: 14350 LOFSW: 0.

These two steps generally will work great although it never was perfect. I finally gave up on getting good DishPro issues resolved and trashed the LNB and picked up 2 x single legacy lnb's.

Good luck,

CG

Edit: P.S. Remember that you will not get signal on all the TP's and thats normal due to spot beams, 8PSK TP's etc. Use Lyngsat to verify which TP's you should be getting signal on. Sorry if you know all of this already but hopefully it will help someone.

Here a quick idea, why not store the Disecq, LOF1, LOF2, LOFSW setting in each of the satellite.ini files that we use!

9in 4out EMP switch

I have an EMP switch 9 In 4 out. These are the settings I used in mytheatre, and they worked perfectly.

SW: 12200000 <-- 22KHz ON
SW: 12700000 <-- 22KHz OFF

Nimiq 1 - Commited LNB 1 LOF = 11250000 SW= 12200000 LOF2 = 11250000

Nimiq 2 - Commited LNB 1 LOF = 11250000 SW= 12700000 LOF2 = 11250000

Echostar 7 - Commited LNB 2 LOF = 11250000 SW= 12200000 LOF2 = 11250000

Echostar 6,8 - Commited LNB 2 LOF = 11250000 SW= 12700000 LOF2 = 11250000

I cant seem to get any kind of signal whatso ever with TVServer with these settings. I am running just normal/standard LNBs. Does TVServer support 22 KHz switching?

I disconnected the switch completely and ran the line direct to the LNB. Same result, no signal at all. I am using a twinhan 1020 DVB-S card with the BDA drivers. I just cant seem to get the settings right.

As for the EMP switch, its a combination of 22KHz swithcing and Diseqc Switching. That said even if I used a 4-1 diseqc switch, what would the port selection be? I dont understand Level 1 AB AA BA BB...are these supposed to be port numbers?

Any help with any of this would be much appreiciated. Continuing to test....ergg...

North American Sattelite scan problem

Hello,

I have a problem with my MP tvserver3 and North america satellite scan. My MP and TVServer are correctly installed and seems to work.

My scan result look lie this :
1tp : **** * **** , 14 new, update 0
2tp : **** * **** , 0 new, update 14
3tp : **** * **** , 0 new, update 14
