I'm running a DVBSky S960 on a netbook with Windows 8. I have a 16 LNB multisat set up, which was working perfectly with my VU+ receiver. I've set the S 960 up on ProgDVB with two switches, a diseqc 16:1 cascading into a 4:1 but cannot get it to switch from the first LNB (Port 1 Input 1). I've tried swapping the switches round in the software but with no difference.

On the VU+ I had to order the commands thus : diseqc 1.1, diseqc 1.0, toneburst. However, I cannot find any dialog for adding extended commands in ProgDVB. Any help would be appreciated...

What commend you need? You can try seup diseq 1.1 + 1.0 in TV sources but not all devices (DVB cards) support that.

According to it's specifications the DVBSky S960 does support diseqc, up to 1.2 and USALS.

I can only give you the commands that worked in my VU+ receiver, diseqc 1.1, diseqc 1.0, toneburst (in that order and no repeats)

Update :

All sorted now. Wasn't a switching problem after all, but a confusion between the way my VU+ set out the LNBs and how ProgDVB did it..Scanning in my satellites now...Thanks
