Go into tuner setup and make sure the second tuner is the same setting as the first setting, press ok to exit out of menu.
19.2 what's that pointing @ m8 ?

the fact that the channels are encrypted would not make a difference otherwise you would not be able to do the same via 28.2 east.

if you only have a fixed dish pointing towards 19.2 east set both tuners to simple / single. also you say you have two feeds are these two separate feeds ? ie two feeds from a dual or quad lnb ?.

ok then try setting both feeds as

simple / single / satellite astra 1H/1KR/1L/1M (19.2E)/ send DiSEqC no.

see how you get on with that.

rite thats your problem, that revision cam can not handle multiple channels at the same time. it can decode 1 channel at a time and no more.

your best bet for a viaccess cam is ebay but stay away from the older red and black cams. go for one of the newer ones
