NA dvb-s support!!! Come on guys!!! (1 Viewer)

[debennett2]

Let me start by explaining my setup:

Dish500 satellite dish with a dishpro quad lnb where two coax feed into a DPP44 switch and then feed one of those ports to my FireDTV. The DPP44 is needed as I actually have an additional Dish500 I would like to start using and I also want more FireDTV's running on the other end of that switch once I get a working basic system.

This setup works well in MyTheatre using modified ini files and their DishPro settings.

I can scan channels (most of them but not all by any means) using the TVServer and the custom ini's and have tried every variation of diseqc and dish type and lof1 and lof2 setting (reverting back to the tried and true of 11250 mostly), HOWEVER, I am only able to tune in LNB1. There is something wrong with the code that will not allow me to either use the DishPro quad or, more likely the DPP44 or the combination of the two.

Can someone with some knowledge at MP get in touch with me so I can help make MP work with this type of equipment? This has been an outsatnding issue with MP (among MANY other things) for a very long time. I have hope for MP and that is why I am here but come on guys!!!

All I would say is see this post.

what does this have to do with hardware support for fta channels? I don't get that at all.

sorry, I'm only one of the 80 visitors looking in this thread, because i couldnt imagine, what help is needed here - maybe the 6 "!" in your title title is too "meaningful"? And no system posted? And the only hit was "dvb-s"...

No system posted? What does that mean? My system config has little bearing on actually providing support for my sat equiment itself. I have posted all information needed in order to get help. My title says exactly what is going on...I have tried everyting that I can think of to get my NA dvb-s to work and nothing seems to work and it seems that this is possibly a software issue that still remains unresolved.

If you have nothing to contribute then don't post when someone is asking for help. There are enough people like you in the world as it is.

 

[Rudi99]

Yes indeed, there are enough people like you, talking about "crap...swallow...bumping...quick...guys..." and forgetting the difference between pay-for-support and OpenSource like MP... and don't tell me to shut up, because that's the admin's job. And don't answer me, as i won't read ur threads again. bye.

The problem is not enough NA developers that have the experience needed to look into this problem!

 

[debennett2]

well I would certianly volunteer any testing time I can offer but I am not a developer. If you need data collected, however, I am certainly your man.

Any luck getting this set up? I have a Dish500 lnb behind a DiseqC switch, and will need a way to make it work with MediaPortal once my HTPC is set up.

Thanks
