    hi


    Just an enquiry regarding catchup.

    I know you answered before about catchup being dependent on provider.


    I am on V4.19. Open ATV 7.3


    Catchup only goes back just short of 2 days on Xstreamity.


    I know my providers catchup goes back more on the channel I am trying. if I use Tivimate on firestick I can go back 5 days on the selected channel.


    Will latest version of Xstreamity handle catchup differently


    Cheers

    Lululla Sorry been busy not had a chance to reply

    I’m now on same server as my mate now and 3.0 works just fine.


    I’m presuming previous server was port 80 as there was no port number after address

    My previous post I was using 2.9

    I’ve tried 3.0 and it logs in to provider even shows expiry date but get the same msg

    No data or playlist not compatible when clicking on live or VOD

    2.9 worked with my mates provider. Strange as both providers use the same playlist format

    haven’t tried 2.8

    tried his plugin with my mates provider and works fine.

    Tried it with mine and just shows provider name and “No Info”

    Clicked on help button and status shows as not authorised.


    I though you only need authorised when using MAC as you are using user/pass on this plugin

    Shame as it seems to be a pretty good plugin

    Mine wouldn't have had any problems if the motorised dish was able to pick up 28.2
    If I had used Tuner A for motorised and B for Fixed I would still have had the same problem which has now been solved

    set a timer to zap one minute before the recording is due to start, not ideal, but will solve the problem


    nice one mate
    there is an option within the timer screen to set what timer type. Had not noticed that before.
    will now set timer type to zap and record


    not tried it yet but looks promising



    Edit..... Tested and works fine


    it's always a little thing that fixes stuff

    I have a little annoyance which I have just lived with for a while
    I will explain the problem


    I have a Solo2 running openPLi 4
    I have 2 Sat Dishes
    1 is fixed at 28.2
    1 is motorised (Line of sight is only between 19.2 and 3 )


    Tuner A Fixed 28.2
    Tuner B Motor


    The annoyance comes when recording using timer on 28.2. If I dont leave it on the channel to be recorded on 28.2 ( If its on foreign Sat channel its ok) the motorised dish will then move to 28.2 to try and record. Due to my line of sight issue the dish cant pick it up.
    Is there a way to force tuner A to zap to the channel to be recorded. Or ignore Tuner B for 28.2
    There is of course no issues with timer recordings from foreign Sat Channels


    Mike

    motor can only be controlled by one cable via tuner A in your twin stb.


    If that was the case, then I wouldn't be able to get the motor to move to the satellites stated in my first post.



    UPDATE


    Installed BH image and was able to get the dish to move to all the west channels and 4.8E through SATFINDER in setup


    Was unable to do that in OpenPli SATFINDER


    I am however unable to pick up 0.8W The signal gets blocked by my extension on the side of my house :26_002:


    Such a shame as it manages 3E. arrghh if only i could get that extra 4 degrees to the west



    Thanks anyway folks for your input on this


    Mike

    Here is tuner config


    Tuner A


    config mode simple
    mode single
    Sat sly uk
    Send Diseqc no


    Tuner B


    Config Mode Simple
    mode positioner
    Long My Longtitude
    west
    Lat My latitude
    North


    Tuning step size 0.360
    memry positions 040
    Horizontal turn speed 2.3
    Vert turn speed 1.7


    There is obviously a setting, and/or file not set up correctly
    As said above strange that I cant get dish to go to 4.8E by using channel selection in bouquet but can get 3E and 7E no problem


    If it was only West satellites then I would think perhaps motor not set up correctly but its also 4.8E

    Hi folks


    Hope you can help


    I recently had an 80cm Motorised Dish installed


    Lets see if I can explain what the problem is


    Using Catseye Bouquet I am able to select channels from 3E 7E 9E 10E 13E 19E 20E 23.5E 26E 28.2E and others going East
    The Dish will then move to the position for ALL these satellites. Obviously some wont receive a signal e.g BADR


    I am unable to select ANY from a WEST position and 4.8E as the channel lists are greyed out. Looking to get Thor 5/6 0.8W
    Strange how I can get dish to move to 7E and 3E but not 4.8E which is in the middle so to speak. I know I wont pick up anything from 4.8E but surely dish should move there?


    I have updated my Satellite.xml file using the link on here but to no avail.


    I have VU SOLO2 running OpenPli 4 Beta


    Any help much appreciated
