2x DVB-C + 2x Providers - Help.

There are 94 replies in this Thread which was already clicked 7,069 times. The last Post () by jenseneverest.

    What and how it works (OpenPLi 7.2):


    1. Tuner B - the first cable provider ( few programs in Favorites list)


    2. Tuner C -the second cable provider ( many programs in Favorites list)


    3. Install enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-slowzap_0.8_all.ipk 1.0.0 and restart receiver

    File
    enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-slowzap_0.8_all.ipk
    Allows to assign service priority to tuners.

    4. On Menu\System\Customize use:

    a. Preferred tuner: Tuner C

    b. Preferred tuner DVB-C: Tuner C

    5. Manual scan Tuner B


    6. Add programs to Favorites


    7. On Menu\Setup\ Softcam/Ci\ Slow zap for CI:

    a. Activate slow zap: on

    b. Use alternative priority tuner: Tuner B

    e. Find your channels (one by one in my case from Favorites) and press Ok

    f. Press OK to save in Service list setup

    g. exit


    8. Manual scan Tuner C


    9. Add programs to Favorites (from last scanned/Tuner C )



    Now it works:

    What doesn't work:

    Remote channel stream converter cannot run channel from Tuner B ( remember that I set Tuner C as Preferred tuner DVB-C. See 4.a and 4.b).



    Next step:


    I am waiting for combiner. I will combine cables ( combined but not mixed) and split to both tuners.

    I luv happy-endings... :crying1::eye-tongue::P:party-time::thumbup:


    My guess with splitter/combiner is you have 2 ways of trying it out and you will need a few of those pieces to get a successful outcome...:rasta2bigsmoke0gf1:

    How are you using RCSC? It is for importing channels from another receiver. Maybe you are not doing things the best way.


    You were meant to use one receiver with Provider A signal wire. Another receiver with provider B signal wire. Each receiver works fine on its own provider using the physical tuners. When you import Bouquets from other receiver (do on both), you will use tuner on the correct signal wire for the provider.

    I use another receiver DM800SE with no Provider signal Wire but connected to the same network as my zgemma H7C. I imported from H7C the Favorites to DM800SE.

    On DM800SE I can see any channel from only one tuner ( tuner C in my case, Preferred tuner). It doesn't open channels from tuner B.


    I will try different settings on Customize ( Preferred tuner & Preferred tuner DVB-C).

    That's about it. The limit... If it (800HD SE) imports the Favs which you made (on H7C) of both providers and if it can't play from both tuners/providers...


    Unless you can combine it (2 cable coaxes) successfully with HW (combiner) to a single (H7C) tuner and get it all to stream (via LAN) to the other receiver (800HD SE)...


    I think... ;)

    So you are not doing what I suggested but said you are doing so.


    An option for you until you get the combiner. Start afresh remove all bouquets and lamedb and the other plugin.


    Hardware

    Connect provider 1 signal wire to Dreambox.

    Connect provider 2 signal wire to ALL Zgemma tuners using splitter


    So, each box only has physical access to signal from one DVB-C provider. You won't get Tune failed messages.


    Bouquets on box for hooked up signal

    Create bouquet for provider 1 on DM. Use distinct name

    Create bouquets for provider 2 On Zgemma. Use distinct name


    Bouquets for remote bouquets. Ie what box does not physically have

    Install RCSC on both boxes

    On Zgemma, import bouquets from DM

    On DM, import bouquets from Zgemma if you will be physically watching from this box. If you will not be watching from HDMI of this box, leave it to one sid


    Result on Zgemma should be:

    Select DVB-C provider 2 -> Will use the tuners on Zgemma box

    Select DVB_C Provider 1-> Will stream from DM. View using Zgemma


    Any other receiver in house

    Install RCSC

    Import Provider 1 from DM

    Import Provider 2 from Zgemma

    Abu, isn't DM800SE only Sat TV STB?

    OK, I re-read the thread and it seems there is another solution to this story...


    OP has 5 boxes.


    3 DB800HD SE (only Sat TV, I think).


    1 H7C (2 x DVB-C/T2 and 1 x DVB-S2X)


    1 H7S (2 x DVB-S2X and 1 x DVB-C/T2)


    He also has 2 x cable provider at his property and


    1 satellite dish (we don't know if LNB(s) is(are) single, duo, quad or octa?


    So, my solution is:


    1) your satellite dish can feed DVB-S2X tuner(s) in H7S and


    1a) one cable provider to the DVB-C/T2 tuner.


    2) the other Cable provider can go to the H7C STB


    2a) if you have terrestrial cable/aerial, you can feed it to the other DVB-C/T2 tuner.


    3) Depending on LNB(s) you can feed more than one tuner with the satellite signal...


    4) Stream via LAN to your DB800HD SE boxes as you please... ;)

    Ok. My DMs have triple tuner (DVBS, DVBC, DVBT) . LNB quad ( only 3 can be used). I dont use DVBT at all

    My configuration (connection) is :

    1. DM800- 1xDVBS + 1xDVBC (Digi) + import DVBC (orange) from H7C

    2. Zgemma H7S - 1xDVBS + 1xDVBC (Digi) + import DVBC (orange) from H7C

    3. Zgemma H7c - 1xDVBS + 1xDVBC (Digi) + 1xDVBC (orange)

    4. DM800 - Import DVBS + DVBC (Digi) + DVBC (orange) from H7C

    5. DM800- free. I dont want to use it.


    So , regarding no.4: I can put DVBC(Digi) on tuner , Import DVBC (orange) from H7C, and import DVBS from H7c, H7S and DM from N0.1.


    BUT to import DVBC (Orange) from H7C to all others receivers, I have to put it as preferred Tuner DVBC.



    @abu baniaz: I got your point.

    Why can't you use the forth port in Quad LNB? I have 12 of them installed (I used to have 16) and all work fine, all 4 "outs"...
