I think I have the same problem. I have a Digibit R1 running satipaxe firmware with a quad-triple-LNB (read as; three integrated LNB's for three different positions with 4 'normal' tuner outputs acting like a DiSEqC switch) - connected to the tuners (each port one port on the LNB).

Tuning to Astra 1 (position 1) goes very well, but tuning on Astra 2 or 3 (the other two positions) fails epically (sometimes it works, sometimes it fails, scans never complete properly, etc). I've configured TVHeadend correctly with three positions (and yes, they are correct - verified with satfinder tool and on my LG TV, which works for all positions without issues). Whatever I try to do, the astra 2 and 3 positions can never complete their scans properly and signal quality is all over the place, as if they are interfering with each other.

How should I get minisatip to just use the 4 tuner inputs as separate inputs, and have them send DiSEqC commands to select the proper position (the src requested by TVHeadend?). It seems really trivial and a 'default' config, but apparently it is not.

Thanks in advance!

@lars18th maybe you can help? I don't have any Diseqc equipment personally

Sure!

Please @mich2200 , can you create a DIAGRAM with the routes? I'm not sure if you're using the switches in a daisy-chain mode or in another form. And please can you comment with which hardware you're driving your infrastructure? We need to know if it actually works or not with other devices.

Regards.
