7027 -two tuners

[leshin]

Hi, i am about to install a dual lnb (ie two cables coming from the same sat dish) on my new 7025, one cable on Tuner 1 and the other on Tuner 2.

My question is, after i scan both Tuners, how will the channels appear on my dreambox??? Will the appear in double?

You see, i intent to watch one channel while recording another...(both channels from the same transponder/satellite).

Am sure a lot of you have done this before so please advise!!!!

Thanks!!!!

PS. Using Gemini 1.6

You don't need to scan both tuners.
Set the second tuner to "equal to A" and do a scan only to the first tuner.
All channels will be ones at your box and you don't have to worry for anything.

Second tuner "equal to A" or "loopthrough to A"?

equal to A.

After that enigma2 will handle everything itself, meaning it will use the second tuner if it has to

If you have a single NLB and you connect the output of the first tuner to the second then you must select loop through to A.
if you have Twin NLB and you have 2 cables from the roof then select equal to A.

If have twin NLB you can record a program and watch another regardless the transporters. But there is a possible failure if you use a subscriber card an the DM can’t read the keys for the second channel. (Ex if you use a CI)
