You can try this in ProgDVB setup
Diseq None
Change the position of the dish to Hot Bird 13E using TM and from the setup menu
Add LNB (you may need to delete the Astra 19E)
Choose Hot Bird 13E and scan
You will then see the Astra 19E and Hot Bird 13E channels list at the bottom and you can select which satellite as you move the dish with TM
Perhaps there is a better way, but I remember that when I tried to define Amos 4W and then Hot Bird 13E, the Amos channels list was still there, even though I changed the coaxial cable to HB.
Let us know if this works for you.

Did it work for you then?
BTW: I liked your idea to move the dish using the TM.
But isn't this possible with ProgDVB?

yes it did,have set two receivers up to use same v box to position dish before but in this case for the amount i will use it,the technomate is easier and better

hi there

why not move the dish with progdvb it has a positioner in it.
ad the positioner to it and one of the swithes a two ports or 16ports .
if u click on a empty then ad positioner next empty click for adding a switch then click on a empty to ad the sat.
next click on the sat u adding to it and click the list button mark the aliasbox of the satellite u adding then yust beside the box u can change the sat position u may double click and move the mouse a wee bit to get the number box open to put a sat number in..

i run my motorished dish with progdvb from 57.E to 33.0.W if i click on a channel it will move to it yust to let you now how somone else has it done.

regards muilbroeder:)
