You can only split signal from unicable lnb. Pretty sure you can't use the unicable lnb on diseqc switches (you can use the legacy port).

Best to run another cable and use another diseqc switch.

EDIT:

Your setup will then look like this (diagram only shows two LNBs but principle is teh same for three/four

Display More

My dish looks like this

out of which I get one unicable(?) into the living room, cant I place a

to be able to utilize LNB2 on the Solo4K ?
I noticed that the Mhz is different on this one,and the one I previously tried and which lead me to make this thread. Could that be the issue ? Sorry if this is pretty obvious to you guys

You mean the Splitter that came with the Solo4K that is primarily for use with a Unicable/SCR LNB and not standard LNB's which you probably have on the end of your Dish

It didn't come with the Solo4K, I have an identical thing as this one http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/150733606016-0-1/s-l1000.jpg

If I am getting it right, that's just a single LNB splitter, but I will need one which splits the signal of Unicable ? or is that going to do the same thing and not work

But... what is the splitter for then ? :/

Sorry for the big no-no btw...didn't know T_T

Hello, so I'm not a pro...In case I am making a blatant mistake sorry for that.

I have 4 "heads" on my dish ending into our living room to one cable, I plugged this directly into the solo 4k, tuner A - A/B/C/D... All good.
Installed a HDD and reckoned time to put the second tuner to use... bought a satellite signal splitter. Placed two cables from that and into the respective slots on the dual tuner on the solo 4k.

Tuner A...all good....Tuner B which I set up with the same positions as A...Not so much :/

Tuner A has
A:0.8W
B:28.2E
C:19.2E
D:13E

If i put the same to tuner B...and start recording something, It lets me switch,but no picture, and from what I can see, no signal... Hope I made myself understood and that someone is able to help me out here

The picon folder on root will be oktus`s picons from the ipk. Delete that picon folder in root.
Delete the picons you sent to usr/share/enigma2/piconlcd/picon, that`s not the correct location.
The picon folder should be in root or usr/share/enigma2/ or /media/hdd or /media/usb.
Now try one or the other, not both.. The ipk or FTP the picon folder to the correct directory..

- - - Updated - - -

It seems like the picons put themselves in multiple locations... I cant figure out why though, found another batch,not mine in /media/usb/picon mind you, there is no usb attached to the box...making it even stranger

O_O it was that simple huh...and yes,it worked

EvO`s Front panel Picons doesn`t actually install any picons, so you must have tried to add different picon packs as well ?

Which picons did you install and where are they located ?

I just tested EvO`s download with oktus picons in the root of the image (not inside any other folder) and its using them on the LCD screen..

Technically I haven't seen oktus's picons as I used the IPKs, so it could be those which it is currently using. I placed picons in usr/share/enigma2/piconlcd/picon

I did notice a picon folder on root, but they have unique names like "1_0_16_1523_455_1_C00000_0_0_0.png" not sure if placing the ones I want to use will work. but what do I know... Whats your take master ?

edit: I obviously meant I'm using image 3.0.2...no idea why I said 4.0.3 in the first post

good morning it is backup image ? have you try to disable DHCP and put manual ip ? if work with 192.xxxxxxx try to put back DHCP enable don't forget to do full reboot each time .

No, it was a fresh image, for now I will manage with filezilla, I'm new to this so I'm sure there is plenty I need to learn before messing around with DHCP etc

Thank you for that master G, picons popped up just as promised, but not the ones I added... any insight into what I can do about that ? If is ask really nicely and say pretty please ?

I have tried every little thing I think that I have come across, in the process I now have channel picons in boquet and on the info bar...but nothing except the standard "channel name" "show name" and "progess" bar :(
I placed the picons in /usr/share/enigma2/piconlcd/picon
they are correctly formatted and in png format.
I installed oktus's ipks
placed a picon folder in root... on HDD,installed ...something4LCD... No go :(

What am I doing wrong T_T

edit: Oh BH 4.0.3 I believe the image ver is

Yeah, that's what I was using from before, reckoned I'd try it out. Ah well not the biggest loss.

Tried connecting, but all I'm getting is ip adress is incorrect, open webif gets in though... not sure what the problem is here, only thing is, as I mentioned in title, that the ip adress is 10.x.x.x and not a 192 starter.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
