Hi, In a WIN 7 HTPC I have 2 Hauppauge 2200 cards for terrestrial freeview, 1 Nova S Plus which I only use for the Opentv EPG, and a dual tuner Tevii 480s sat card for SBS. The Tevii is connected to a dedicated dish with single LNB. Using the application bundled with the Tevii tuner I can receive all the SBS channels, and EPGcollector can collect the SBS EPG, but Windows Media Center setup cannot find a signal from the Tevii tuners. I have installed Tunersalad to increase the tuner limit in WMC, and all tuners are available in setup, and I have tried all 3 LNB types wwith the same parameters (11300, 11300, 12600) as EPGCollector and the Tevii app but cant get a signal during WMC setup. I've tried Optus D1 (NZ) and Optus D1 (Au) but no go.
Any suggestions gratefully received ;-)
Steve

I have just set up SBS in my Media Center with a hauppauge card. This is what I did. In Media Center go to settings, tv, tv signal, satellite transponder scan, single transponder scan. Enter the following values:
Carrier Frequency: 12646
Symbol Rate: 12600
Polarization: Vertical
Do the scan - done.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply Traderstu - unfortunately I don't get the option to do a transponder scan - have you left out any steps?

Nope, just double checked. Below is a screengrab, and can confirm that they are off air at the moment.
