KWORLD DVBS100: horizontal - vertical
Posted: Sun Jun 12, 2011 8:20 pm
Hello,
i have a "new" Kworld DVBS 100 pci card and with ProgDVB i can ONLY see "horizontal" stations, vertical stay black.
The strange thing is, if i delete the value in the LNB switch field (11700Mhz), i can watch (ONLY!) the vertical stations. If i write the value back - vert. stations are black and horiz. ok again.
A tv with a digital receiver box on the same cable works great and shows all stations.
I've read much about 14V/18V switching, high an low band - but didn't really understand the whole thing.
So my questions are:
1. What does this "switch field" do, and why can i see the vertical sations if it's empty (and only them)?
2. Is it - even i can see both sations, hor. and ver (under the described circumstances) - possible the card is broken and can't switch from hor. to vert. anymore?
