Hi,
If I understand you correctly, you can see astra channels on a hotbird bouquet? That tells me that you are scanning the wrong satellite. Your diseqc switch has to correspond to the settings in th receiver. Assume you have a diseqc switch and Astra 19.2 is on diseqc switch port1 and Hotbird is on port 2. Then you have to set in the dreambox expert setup to diseqc 1.0 and (again assuming you have diseqc1.0) port AA to astra and port AB to Hotbird.
You may have toneburst switches or minidiseqc or a rotor, so it strongly depends on what configuration you have. Let us know the switch type and which port is connected to which sat, then we can help in more detail.
