hello everybody
i gotta 90 cm dish, twinhan vp 1020, progdvb 4.26, s2emu 1.06 and yankse 1.31 plug-ins.
the problem: when I scan hotbird not a single sky italia channel is found,
I manually updated my transponder list , but it was not helpful
I live in Meadle East (Iran), I don't know actually what's wrong with my system, is it my location? PC card? Progdvb? Plug-in? or something else.
Do you think I should change hotbird properties in Diseqc menu in progdvb(LOF1,LOF2,switch)?there are default values now.
should I use new versions of progDVB( though with newer versions the quality of screen picture decreases dramatically)? should I use another software and if so , other than MyTheatre what other software can i use with twinhan PC card?

Can you receive any other channels from Hotbird?

What sort of signal strength do you get?

channels like multivision,bbc prime,cine box,polsat ... are ok with 30% quality
but all sky italia channels and all tps channels like tps star,etc.( i think freq. 10911) have 60% level but 0% quality .

Sorry, while I was looking at the footprint you posted, if you can get the wide beam, you should be able to receive the superwide, have you tried tweaking the dish slightly when scanning the Sky Italia frequencies?

same with TPS channel, i cannot recieve them also.maybe the problem is our location.but if the footprint is accurate we should be able to recieve those channels.its very frustrating because s*ky &TPS is showing not so old movies according to some of our m8 here.
