Im (desperatly) tring to set up my parents HTPC :)


Im trying to do a channel scan in MediaPortal on the DVB-S card.


My parents have Canal Digital Family, and use the Thor 2/3 satellite.


Using the predefined Thor 2/3 satellites i do find some channels, but its 10 out of hundreds that should be found.


I do know the correct frequences, V/H and symbol rates, and if i scan them in MyTheatre i find all the channels.


The CAM works fine i can watch scrambled channels(the one i have scanned anyway) in both MP and MyTheatre.


Im a bit unsure about their LNB setup. they do have dual LNBs but they only use the one(the other points to Astra but is not used). When scanning in MP i see plenty of signal strength so i think the correct LNB is being used.


I tried creating my own *.tpl file with the following contents:




I have checked on Canal Digitals home page and in MyTheatre that there should be at least a few channels on each of these transponders. but MP only finds a few channels.


Im a bit confused about many of the settings in the DVB-S autotune(Tone and Ku-band/C-band for example) and help would be much appreciated. In MyTheatre the Ku-Band frequences seems to be set to the same values as KuBand in MP. MyTheatre doesnt have any Tone setting so i have no idea about that.


Hmm.. Help, please :)
