    Need Help with DVB-S, Card ADS Tech

    Well as for the Twinhan 102g I still have it. I realized that when I got a channel on Galaxy !0R it is an HD channel and my Twinhan is only a DVB-S card. So, I just gotta get back out there and try some other Sats. But I think my splitters might be causing some of my problem so I am going to...

    Splitters; What Exactly do I need?

    :) Yeah, I get that too. Is Monster Cable a good brand for splitters? I mean they've been around for what? 15 years? And think they were primarily car audio when they started. So, I guess I'm kinda leery that they have and know about Satellite/cable/FTA. Later. Pepse.

    Splitters; What Exactly do I need?

    As for your first reply, thanks that is understandable. As for your second reply, I have a GI 4DTV receiver NOT a DVB receiver, so I should only need the 1X2 High Freq splitters. Later. Pepse.

    Splitters; What Exactly do I need?

    Need Help with DVB-S, Card ADS Tech

    This ADS Tech card seems to be a POC as Progdvb doesn't recognioze the PCI card. It's there as Linux sees it. So, I decided to order me a Twinhan 102g DVB card in hopes that it works. But in the meantime I will try to find some other sites similar to Progdvb and see if any of them will see my...

    Sorry it's been a while. What I did was I tried to make a folder and put that text into it but that wouldn't work. But I found that text in Kate (Klipboard) and it created a text file (folder?) on my desktop so I went to a Konsole and I changed directory to "Desktop" and had it scan? that...

    Well, that didn't work. I created a File called Galaxy 19 and with the use of Kate I pasted your command into the File. Here is the answer: scan -o zap -l 10750 Galaxy19 scanning Galaxy19 using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' ERROR: cannot open 'Galaxy19': 2 No...

    Need Help with DVB-S, Card ADS Tech

    Uh, do I copy & paste or????? Sorry, but I am pretty green with FTA, and hopefully you can keep helping me. I am going to Ebay and get a Diseqc switch and a couple splitters so I can try some C-Band sats. Maybe they will be a little easier to get than the KU sats. Later. Pepse.

    Need Help with DVB-S, Card ADS Tech

    Sorry, I forgot. In fact I like it that I can use command line for this as it might be a better crap shoot than trying to scan with a GUI program. I gotta switch to my Kunbuntu hdd and see what happens. Later. Pepse.

    Need Help with DVB-S, Card ADS Tech

    Every now and then my mind slips a gear or 2:). Anyway what about using a splitter that I mentioned? As for Kubuntu, I have that on another hard drive and dvb-apps works there. But I am still trying to figure out the commands for it to scan a satellite. "Right, I thought you said in your...

    Need Help with DVB-S, Card ADS Tech

    colbec, A 6db KU LNB should be modern enough for what I am trying to do. gillham, I realized a few hours ago that I probably should be aiming my dish to the KU Sats; or doesn't it matter? Now as for being able to tweak any Sat for reception I have a small dilema; I would have to...
