Hi lilmale1
Most TV satellites are positioned in what is called geosynchronous (or geostationary) orbit over a fixed position on the equator. As you've realised, when you want to use a dish motor to access multiple satellites, you're going to need to move the dish from left to right (or east to west...) to follow the arc of the satellite "belt". Because most of us don't live directly on the equator, we also have to adjust the elevation ("look angle") of the dish. The further the satellite is to the east or west of your position, the closer to the horizon it appears. The closer to the horizon it is, the lower the elevation angle for the dish must be. You're possibly best to ask your questions on a satellite enthusiast forum... might get better answers than what I can offer.

4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

Hi.
I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database".
Anyway, I found a way to do this which was far from automated but relatively low effort. I found what looked like all the images (CD covers, DVD covers, backgrounds etc all lumped together in...
