    Need Help On Digiwave Receiver

    Without knowing what the channels are it is hard to say. It could be that the channels are broadcast in 422 which will give tiling or no pictures at all. It is also possible that you may have to enter the video pids manually. Some channels are audio only. Check Lyngsat for details.
