Satellite feeds 1.5

[simonog]

I am struggling. I tried searching for this and similar and failed to find any matches.

our box works fine and records any 2 channels we want with none greyed out. Yet I get complaints from the remote scheduling package if two programmes overlap, even though they both record fine.

the R/S settings shows 1.5 satellite feeds, whatever that means. How do I make sure it knows it has and works with both the feeds please?

I take it that by “R/S settings shows 1.5” you mean the Remote Scheduling plugin? If so you can change the number of LNB feeds in the Remote Scheduling settings
1 = Single cable from LNB to LNB 1 connector
1.5 = Single cable from LNB with loop through from middle connector to LNB 2 connector
2 = Two separate cables from LNB to LNB 1 & LNB 2 connectors

Have you read the WebIf Documentation for Remote Scheduling it’s all explained in there?

I did read the documentation. My two LNBs are correctly connected. What I had missed was that in the Web Interface Settings it said Two for the number of feeds, but I also discovered I have to set the number of feeds in the Remote Scheduling section of the plugin.

thank you for the pointer which made me look deeper..

Have you now changed the Remote Scheduling plugin settings through the WebIf.

 

[simonog]

I have and that fixed it. My post just before yours was meant to make it clear that I’d done it. Just odd to have the data in 2 independent places.

An unfortunate but not unexpected side effect of having been developed for the HDR-FOX and ported for the Foxsat CF.

A really minor niggle - I should have been able to deal with this without troubling people. It’s such a good set of software I am enormously grateful others put time and effort into creating it at all.

That's what the forum is for. I admit to getting a bit irritated if the same basic question comes up over and over again, but I don't recall this one ever having been asked and it is a pointer for next time (especially as I don't have a Foxsat).
