Hi,

I have a Formuler F1 running the latest OpenViX image. I have a small issue that maybe someone can help me with. I live in an apartment which has a Sky fibre distribution system, satellite and Saorview. I am fed from a Global Fibre MDU Virtual Quad which is powered by my satellite box (LNB). My issue is that when I change from the satellite channels to my Saorview channels the LNB power is turned off and the MDU stops working, as a result I lose the Saorview signal.

If I am recording a satellite channel and go to a Saorview channel the LNB power stays on and the MDU continues to work allowing me to view the Saorview channels.

Any suggestions as to how I can keep the LNB power on in all cases? I believe there is a ForceLNBPower setting available on some boxes, this can be set to ensure the LNB power is not turned off when the DVB-S receiver is idle, is this field changeable on the Formuler F1, I can't find it in the standard menus?

Thanks

Get an injection power supply.
