TNAP-5.1 Image Discussion

[cyberham]

Something occurred to me after sleeping on it. Maybe I am configuring my system incorrectly.

I have a total of 5 LNBs configured:
Tuner A: LNB1, LNB2, LNB3
Tuner B: LNB1, LNB2

I've always wondered if I should be configuring these instead as follows:
Tuner A: LNB1, LNB2, LNB3
Tuner B: LNB4, LNB5

Also, Tuner B/LNB2 is funky since it's a Shaw Direct LNB. Its LO frequency is 10075 MHz with a scan range of 11025 to 12225 MHz. It's designed to cover lower Ku and upper Ku. Maybe this and the above configurations are causing problems. I will reprogram using unique LNB numbers for the whole system.

I understand your point about carrying forward old files. In general in past, I haven't done this for the concern you mention. However, in transitioning from TNAP5 to TNAP5.1, I did carry forward using the "lazy way". I think for the transition from TNAP4.2 to TNAP5, I didn't carry forward but allowed the system to create new files.

I understand more. I will go away and probably reflash fresh and reconfigure. It's all fun & games.

TS Sat Editor appears to make a decent satellites.xml file. The header is proper as shown below. This should run without errors, but I have not tested it.

If you use the TS-Satellite editor to make updates and save then the format is changed. Never had an issue with that format though.
