OpenATV image manual scan not finding anything

[deepspace221]

Oh. I understand now. I've checked it and it was like you said.
I didn't realized I was sabotaging myself. It was only a test not real world scenario.
After you scanned a satellite and it finds channels you expect them to just work immediately and see what you got.
Thank you for explaining it very clearly.

It would be useful if VIX could add SMART choices based on signal values to the algorithm, that way if one dish gets knocked off or something you'll have a backup and can resume viewing instantly. It should not stay on a DEAD tuner if there is one with a live signal and it is a free resource.

Is there a quick fix, a way I can force the receiver to use the tuner I want right then and there, instead of going all the way through the settings, if it's not on the preferred tuner? Maybe a plugin of the sorts?
What you described with the big and smaller motorized dishes is about my situation, and I would like a way to quickly force the tuner I want to use, if the situation arise. There may be some duplicates with the satellites (I understood the solution you described).
Do I need to configure a remote macro to do this?

I kinda found out by chance what was causing the 0 results in manual scan.
The dish it is connected to is a toroidal dish (just installed it), and I'm not sure how, but what seemed to have happened is that all the polarization values are somehow reversed now... That is way it only found channels in blind scan.
After reversing the polarization values in satellite.xml manually, it is now finding them all.
Maybe you could tell me what I did wrong there... and how this could have happened...
Is it normal for this type of dish?

Thank God I found out what was wrong. It was driving me nuts.

The only issue now that remains is that in "automatic scan" I've only listed 2 tuners (A and B) and not tuner C.

Thank you so much for your help thus far.
