How to manually add a channel?

5 December 2015 - 19:30

Hello all,

 

Since this afternoon, I have a problem with my DM8000. My setup uses Diseqc with Astra and Hotbird and I cannot access any channels on HB

 

When I try to check my signal (bargraph), I get an error that it cannot scan.

 

I don't know if the problem comes from the tuner(s), the diseqc controler or my LNB which points to HB. It is evening and there's a strong fog, so I can't verify by bypassing my diseqc and testing LNBs individually; I'll do that tomorrow when I can see what I'm doing.

 

In the mean time, I would like to manually add a channel that I normally watch on HB but from Astra. This channel is unfortunately not in my All channels list. I think I have all the necessary information (SID, VPID, Audio, ...) but cannot find a menu option to manually enter my channel.

 

I saved my configuration using iDreamX and thought I could simply add this channel and import it back but it seems the saved configuration of my favourites shows a reference to the position of the channels from the All channels list and since I don't have that channel there, it seems there isn't much I can do.

 

Any idea how I could achieve this?
