Hi stores,
check the audio pids, by adding 1 to the APIDS on Hotbird you were able to get the English soundtrack, even on the channels that didn't seem to carry an English soundtrack, but when I tried manually altering the APIDS on my receiver, Echo 3600, I just ended p with a blank screen, I had to delete the channel and do a re-scan, to get a picture back.

Hi stores,
the only other thing I can think of is that your receiver is patched and this is intefering with the Dragon, but I can't see why this is happening on only certain channels in the package. Is there any similarity between the problem channels, polarity, frequency range etc, and does it occur on any FTA channels......

Hi stores,
you could try re-programming the Dragon first and then if that fails then try restoring your receiver to factory default.

Hi stores,
have you access to another receiver, to check if there's anything wrong with the LNB? I can't understand the problem as it's not targeting specific frequencies, polarity or transponders. Hopefully when you find the solution you can help out others who experience this problem.
Good luck
Mickha
