Problems with scanning Eutelsat W4 (36.0E)

[MrMJ]

Good afternoon,

I have 4 LNBs via DiseQ 1.x switch (ABCD): 9E,13E,28.2E,36E. LNB for 36E is Ku-Circular and I can't scan channels. Maybe I have to put different LOF1, LOF Switch, LOF2 for 36E?
I can scan and watch channels via other software, so everything works fine, but I want to use XBMC for sat channels via NextPVR.
And also I have a question concerning adding transponders to ini files - I have at the moment:

Code:

1=11727,L,27500,34,S2;8PSK
2=11766,L,27500,34,S2;8PSK
3=11785,R,27500,34
4=11804,L,27500,34,S2;8PSK
5=11823,R,27500,34,S2;8PSK
6=11862,R,27500,34
7=11881,L,27500,34
8=11900,R,27500,34
9=11938,R,27500,34
10=11977,R,27500,34
11=11996,L,27500,34
12=12015,R,27500,34
13=12073,L,27500,34,S2;8PSK
14=12092,R,27500,34
15=12111,L,27500,34
16=12130,R,27500,34,S2;8PSK
17=12149,L,27500,34,S2;8PSK
18=12190,L,20000,34
19=12226,L,27500,34
20=12245,R,27500,34
21=12265,L,27500,34
22=12284,R,27500,34
23=12303,L,27500,34
24=12322,R,27500,34
25=12380,L,27500,34
26=12399,R,27500,34
27=12437,R,27500,34
28=12456,L,27500,34
29=12476,R,27500,34

Will it work with NextPVR?

What capture device are you using?

NextPVR only supports diseqc with Hauppauge, FireDTV and TwinHan devices.

[MrMJ]

Prof Revolution DVB-S2 7301 (BDA drivers) and it looks like it can even find some channels! At least I have some transponders@36E scanned and can watch some channels without any problems.
Can you tell me concerning rules for adding transponders to ini files for NextPVR? It's a little bit diffent if I compare it to what I have.

Unfortunately diseqc isn't going to work with that device.

For the most part the .ini transponder format is the same as other apps. There is a bit of variation between apps when it comes to DVB-S2 transponders. NextPVR uses the same scheme as DVBViewer. Described here: http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...ion-in-INI

These extra numbers on the end of the line wont do anything on your device though. They're only there for devices that cant detect the DVB-S2 Pilot/RollOff, and have a known proprietary API for supplying (like the Hauppauge HVR-4000). Other devices like the TBS devices that autodetect these DVB-S2 tuning parameters don't use them. I'm not sure if your Prof Revolution DVB-S2 7301 auto detects these or not.

OK, but if I switch it to 36E via third party app and then use only 36E with NextPVR - will it work normal? And what about LOF1,LOF2, LOF switch? Should I change it to be able to scan Ku-circular transponders@36E?

I don't know. Maybe.

And what about LOF1,LOF2, LOF switch?

It depends on your LNB. These are the frequencies of the oscillator hardware on your LNB. Usually they're on the sticker on the LNB.

Should I change it to be able to scan Ku-circular transponders@36E?

Yes, I cant see why not.

I'm having problems with transponders scanning... Can't get all channels I think I'm using wrong LOF1,LOF2
