Hi everyone.
We have two satellite dishes. One pointed at Sky, and one pointed at HotBird 13E. We had two sky boxes before, one got English TV (FTA channels) and the other, connected to HotBird satellite got Italian TV. However, the Sky box used for Italian TV broke.
I just bought an OpenBox and DiSEqC switch. I plugged the satellites into the switch (Sky in LNB1, Hotbird in LNB2) and connected it to the box.
I enabled DiSEqC, and both satellites show up on the satellite list. One says Sky, the other says HotBird.
However, when I do a satellite scan (and select HotBird only) it still finds English channels like Channel 4, and a couple channels like Arabic and Spanish TV.
So I edited the satellite list, and added the manual frequences I found online.
i.e. from here
Italy - List of free-to-air satellite television channels - Italia
10992 V, 27500
But when I save it, and search channels, it seems to ignore that frequency I added. Also some of the existing frequences say "Failed" while others say "OK"
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks
