[QUOTE="Tunes0710, post: 1071553, member: 413670"] Being new to this - I was trying to figure out what is actually going on. Having an old sky dish, it looks like I have a quad lnb rather than a quattro lnb (which is what I thought I had). [ATTACH type="full"]124410[/ATTACH] As such, I'm assuming I should get all four bands down each cable? 2 are going in to another room, connected to a sky box and 2 are coming in to my area and currently connected to input 0 and input 2. However it looks like I'm only able to get the low-frequency noise channels.. which is why I thought it may actually be a quattro lnb, but looking at the LNB itself it says it's a Sky J4L and so should be a standard quad lnb? Doing a scan through dvbdream shows that when it gets to the high-frequency noise listings, it's not receiving anything. I'm just trying to figure out if it's a problem with the dish, or with the card, or with something I'm doing The reason I'm doing this, is that I want to be able to pick up TV in any of the rooms I'm in, so I am running J-River on boxes in each room, which act as a client and as a server on this box which has the TBS card in it. The only thing I haven't tried (yet) is moving this box in to the room that has the other sky box in, and using those feeds from the LNB to see if my output is the same, or if for some reason those allow me to access the channels on the high-frequency bands.
