Hi There,
Has anyone else with a Satellite multiswitch tried to use NPVR?
I am having issues getting the config screen to work with NPVR - in that it doesnt appear to swap between the inputs.
Under GBPVR i could set up capture sources with LNB Frequency LO , switch frequency (generally 22000 or 0), and the the polarisation would be in the satellite frequency file.
As a couple of the KU Satellites receivable in NZ are only on one polarity - the H pol on one imput would be diff sat to the V pol.
Its an 8 input multiswitch - which is treated as A and B - each with 22khz on/off , and then V and H from there (which technically is meant for 4 dual pol KU imputs).
My Optus D1 input is A / 22khz off - and NPVR gets to that. I cannot however get it to change to any of the other inputs.
Also as i could have 2 satellites off one grouping (i.e. one on H and one on V) - I suspect that means i would have to combine the 2 satellites input files into one, as its no longer possible to create a capture source per satellite... rather you have the input method (diseq A / 22khz on) to an input file, so both the frequencies for H and V would need to be present (irrelevant of which satellite they actually are).
Sorry if this speil does not make any sense.
Is anyone else with any type diseq switch (not just multiswitch) having any issues? if not - how did you config npvr to work?
Given that the signalling works perfectly under GBPVR - im curious what im doing wrong?
Any tips or ideas?
