Thanks guys. Looks like I dont need to worry! I'd not come accross this phenomena before. It may have been NHK World.

Scrolling thru early morning Euro News Channels today I saw the brief ending of a report. It showed a diagram of the Sun beamed to a Satellite and a Cone from there to the Earth. Could this be a warning? Is it possible that my sat reception can be lost when the sun is directly in line with my...

There was a procedure, with pictures, on this very topic in a recent Wotsat mag. Can't tell you which month. I scroll thru the pages in Smiths. It may be in wotsat.techradar.com

Just as an aside. The lnb's fit on an bar secured to the arm. Make sure that arm is sturdy or it will wave around in the wind, such as we have today. Mine is light alu and I've had to fix tensioned wire guys from the arm to the brickwork. Something else for my wife to complain about!

Still thinking about this. It sounds very practical. It would give me two diseqc cables, to the PC and the small TV, and two diseqc cables round the house to the Humax. I was worried about the extra weight on the T arm, there is 0.6grams difference between my Twin LNB and the Quad LNB, 3 times...

Correction. I watch more Freesat but tend to record more Non Freesat. Does that complicate matters?

I've got 85cm dish with 3 twin Lnb's 13/19/28E. The 3 inners to a 4x1 diseqc and the cable thru the wall to DVBDream on the PC. The 3 outers to a 4x1 diseqc and that cable round the house to LNB1IN in the Foxat-HDR in the back room downstairs, with a loop to LNB2IN. I view either upstairs or...

PS I neglected to say I have V1.4i - B2C2 Direct - on Driver v4.5.1

No responses yet. Does the error message mean something to anybody? Would it help for me to re download and re install DVBDream? I'm reluctant to do that yet as its so complicated for me.

I'm one step further, I got an error message saying 'No disc space enough on the record drive'. The video, say a 1hour TV prog, goes to a MY Video folder on my F Drive which has 112GB or 75% free space and that folder is correctly named in Options/Preferences/Record. Is there a printed protocol...

I've lost the recording ability. This is the first time I've needed it since I did a reinstall of v1.4i in October. Please advise the simplest way to recover this function, I'm not PC skilled. In C/Program Files there is a folder in DVBDream called Record but this is empty.

Thanks Gordon. I knew what you meant. I had a problem scanning 19 and 13 because, dopey me, I'd named each sat to Diseqc A in error, forgetting that each LNB was setup A B or C. Anyway it worked and I'm very pleased with the Humax and the new LG TV.

This opens on PC Startup but I don't want it on startup. I only want it available when I switch on DVBViewer TE, if its needed. How do I achieve that please? I'm not PC minded, I dont need to know what this is but it sounds like its needed for the remote which I have but dont use. I've found...
