<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For any one hanging out for an
answer....</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The problem was I was using a splitter from the
Satellite dish with one power pass channel, connected to the Technotrend.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I had assumed that the Technotrend power would
power the Nova-S also, that was not the case, as a volt meter suggests they only
power up when running.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The fix is to use a splitter with power pass on all
channels.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now to figure out why Satellite Radio does not seem
to record correctly, although it plays live fine.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a technotrend and Nova-s (and a PVR-150)
in a mythbuntu 8.10 box. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The 150 and the Technotrend have configured up
and are working, however I cannot get the Nova-s to Lock to scan its channel
set. </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>Setting it up it seems this scan is
required. (Or a channels.conf import?) I have tried scanning the
channels (that the technotrend has already done successfully) however I cannot
get a lock for this card nor scan the channels. I have tried both frequencies
- 12483000 and 12456000 </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It seems a second LNB config definition was also
required in the setup.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is a 2nd scan required when using two similar but
different model DVB-S cards in the same box?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any suggestions how I might proceed would be
welcomed please.</FONT></DIV>
