    German HD Transponders not receiving signal

    Hi

    Gigablue UHD UE 4K (Universal LNB) Openvix 6.4.010 here, While searching for some German channels, I found that some German Transponders on Astra 19° (11494H, 11361H, 11302H, 10832H, 11464H and 12544H) that many channels on those transponders were not showing, (I don't mean that the coded ones were not clearing) and the channels names would fade. My other box (Zgemma h7. openvix 6.4.010) doesn't have this problem. Most of the other HD channels (H or V) seem OK. Do you think its an LNB fault? Any help please?

    Note transponder details on working box and recheck on non working box are they the same as channel movement does happen.

    Are your channel details upto date when checking Kingofsats for changes.

    Have you tried swapping boxes over to see if the fault goes with it and might narrow down the issue.

    No movement on recent channels i noticed.

    Swapped cables between tuners on Gigablue, disconnected cable between splitter and Gigablue. Connected cable directly from Diseq to Gigablue, swapped cable between boxes, Gigablue always keeps the same problem. I'm going to try tweaking LNB tomorrow!

    Are the signals of the missing stations all horizontal (H)?
    How are your tuner settings (set voltage and 22KHz,send disEqC only on satellite change...)?

    It does seem that the affected channels are "H", however lots of other "H" channels are coming in.
    And when the Gigbblue box runs OpenATV the channels come, plus my other boxes are working fine.

    Update 20:00 hrs.

    Flashed box image Openvix 6.4.009, (6.3.003 had Jedi Maker Xtream acting up) All channels appear to work correctly. I remembered today I had downloaded the one of plugins "ciefpe" a couple of weeks ago, maybe this caused my problems?

    Many thanks to catikid and nekrub2 for their help!

    Might depend if your bouquets automatically update when changes happen.

    I used to use Vhannibals and the odd time there was an update to run.

    No, I use Jedi and Xtreamity and update manually when get prompted. And update the bouquets by Echannelizer. Thanks again (Our internet has been acting up today as well)
