[QUOTE="thekiwi, post: 1191371, member: 30129"] So just a little further with this. Been too busy to really fault find, so have been watching via streaming. HOwever, gave it some time last week and thought I had found the problem. Disconnected the cards from the 2 x leads from the splitter ... and fed the aerial directly into one of the cards. Boom .... got a signal straight away. Plugged it into the other card ... all good and able to stream. So presumed it was the splitter .. which at the time I found strange, but apparently they can fail. So ordered a new one. Expectantly set it up yesterday thinking it would be all good .... nope ... "no signal". So unplugged again and fed the aerial direct into each card ... and all good again. SO what now? :) The splitter sits under the stairs so its not weather contamination. Ive checked the LNB and there is no water ingress (and its actually only a couple of months old after the cover on the previous perished in the light). Brushed off a few cobwebs etc. Could it still be the LNB, ie signal is too week for some reason? Signal appears really good in TV Server config as well as when viewing ... and the weather isnt all that flash at the moment. Both times the loss of signal was associated with pretty crappy weather ... but the dish and LNB look fine. [/QUOTE]
