Team,

 

with the latest available image, whether using the wizard or not, openPLI cannot find anything on port B of the tuner (PortA find Hotbird, which is correct).

I know for sure my DM800HDse works fine, as well as the dish, as when I install Dream Media original image, port B finds Astra and everything is fine.

 

I couldn't find any related post in the forum, and wonder how to go round the problem.

Any workaround / suggestions welcomed...

Yes, original DM800HDse with single tuner, installed and PLI image.

In tuner config, when setting both ports (A and B) to "automatic", only port A is then return populated with Hotbird, nothing is found on port B.

When setting manually port A with Hotbird and port B with Astra... only Hotbird channels are found during searches.

It looks like port B of the tuner has no active driver...

I think that you are referring to DiseqC configuration when you speak of port A / port B.

 

How is exactly your setup, is it a single block LNB that can received both Astra and Hotbird with one cable that come down to your STB.

Is it 2 separated LNBs with an external DiseqC and then 1 cable that come to your STB?

 

If the DiseqC cannot commute to port B it is probably because you wrongly put your F plug on the cable and you create a shortcut (between the external shield and the main coper cable) this "shortcut" will prevent DiseqC from commuting, so you will only be able to received the default satellite, which is in your case Hotbird.
