With the above configuration, I'm not able to scan any transponders on Astra 19.2e after transponder 11739000. This also seems the case with other other satelites (Hotbird 13.0e, Astra 23.5e and Astra 28.2e) using a Diseqc 1.0 configuration. Other DVB-type software don't have any issues with this configuration, scanning and tuning works without any problems.

I tried several versions of Mediaportal 1.0 (RC1 and RC2 with different SVN releases) as well as different drivers for my Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-HD-S2. It's the exact same problem as described in topic but the proposed patch doesn't work with my Diseqc configuration (only primary diseqc connection works).

That's the main reason why I post it in a new topic: I'm using a diseqc 1.0 configuration (AA till BB) and the problem occures on every satelite I try to scan. According to that topic it might be related to a diseqc 'bug'.

Have you tried using different Disecq positions on the same transponder list? I know my satellite manual tells met that my second LNB is located at B/A, whereas MP scans it on A/B... Very strange, but workable.

Yes I did But BB is allways Astra 28.2e. And on those I have multiple transponders with no signal. And I went back to SVN 19158, which worked without problems on a XP SP2 system a while back (June 2008) using a TT S2-3200. But even with this version I can't get it to run correctly with my Hauppauge.

And I did test it with other software (GBPVR and ProgDVBB), no problems with diseqc switching or with transponders. Only ProgDVB is not very user-friendly as a HTPC (understatement of the year) and GBPVR has problems with H264 channels. So I thought to go for Mediaportal, but the problem I have makes it unworkable.
