I have spent hours trying to scan the channels for 119/110/91/82.

No matter what i pick in the diseqc setup i alway get the wrong channels normally from 119.

Nova-s-plus
emp centauri diseqc 4x1
Standard direct tv lnb


No problems with my stb or mytheatre but since i would like to see 82 hd channels i tried dream and its been a nightmare...lol

Help what am i missing

Try scanning each one without the switch installed.

I had lots of issues like this with my old switch, but I picked up a couple of Cheita 4x1 and no so much anymore.

It would seem dvbdream has serious failing when it comes to diseqc .

Three different fta can deal with them no problem and MT works fine with them.
That and it seems it not very stable when dealing with alot of codecs which makes it prone to crashing.

But its free so a few rough edges are to be expected.

Ended up running a lone line from another sat for it.

download the new dba driver from the hotfix patch forum and replace the default from the install, I have a nova-s-plus and diceqc works fine with the new driver.

Thanks for the heads up.
