hi,
i want to use astra and hotbird, but i don't know how. what is the easiest way? at the moment i have a quad-lnb for astra and two dvb-s cards. i wanted to by a additional lnb for hotbird and put it together on the satellite dish. but how do i have to connect it to the computer?
Use one diseqc per receiver (DVB-S card).
and if i have a third card. does vdr know which card can use diseqc and which not. is it possible to configure this?
The easiest way to have full support for multiple sat positions and multiple DVB cards is to use a multiswitch.
yes, but i want to save money. i need hotbird only for 1 or 2 channels and only very seldom. a multiswitch is very expensive and need powersupply.
thanks
