Skystar2 and V-Box II

**olisun** · 21-10-2006

Hi,

Did anybody manage to get Skystar 2 working with V-Box II?

I tried all the tutorials, drivers etc but I can't seem to control the V-Box via SS2...

Using the tutorial in the forum results in a Skystar2 init error, when I try to move my dish

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Regards

Have moved this olisun, as it is most likely to be a Skystar software/driver problem.

I tried all the different drivers combination etc... but still it doesn't work

:-(

Hi Olisun,

Probably not what you want to hear, and I know it doesn't answer your question, but have you tried just using the vbox as a positioner?

That's how I use mine, and yes, I know it's a cop out, but it's so eeeeeeeasy.......

I want to view Hotbird, I press 13..........
I want to view Hispasat, I press 30 etc etc....

I use it that way if I am in front of the receiver... but I sometimes watch tv from upstairs using my laptop and it's easier to be able to control the dish from Progdvb
