Hi, Can you explain how you select those 4 positions ? DiSEqC commands or tone/voltage changes ? Also can you determine the input type of those positions (Hi/Low, H/V, etc) ? A scenario to see when and why that happens, would be more useful. P. van Gaans wrote: > Hi, > > I've got a Technotrend S-1500 (if it matters: I use it with Kaffeine > 0.8.3).
