    Tuner configuration to read 15.8 east

    I have a dreambox 800se (genuine!) and am using open pli image. I use sgt flipflops bouquets but he has one set of sports channels for 15.8 east. My tuner configuration does not have this satellite position - only has 16 east. Because of this I cannot see any of sgt flip flop's channels for this satellite.(greyed out)
    The question is do I :
    a. Add a new satellite position of 15.8 east or
    b. change all the bouquet settings to 16 east
    I am unsure as to how to do either so any help would be appreciated

    Normally, greyed out channels are due to the fact that the satellite has not been configured in your tuner set up.
    16 is the same as 15.8 in tuner config, channels should then show white and be selectable.

      I have 16 E where all the programmes are ok but 16E is not 15.8E therefore all sgt flip flops are greyed out

        Lots of things you can do, maybe easiest for you is to find a set of bouquets that include 16e, or another option. Go to menu>setup>system>service searching>manual scan> scroll down to type of scan--single satellite>scroll down to satellite and change to 16e, leave the rest as is, press OK to start the scan.

            This is what I have done 00360362878 but I thought there might be a simple way of creating a new satellite position but obviously not.
            Thanks for the input

              Open the channel listings in an editor like Dreamset and change the Satellite from 16 to 15.8 or vice versa, then save and load.

                Cannot make that work lincsat - changing the title does nothing - all the individual channels are still at 15.8e Cant see how to change them

                  Change the location not just the title, ie change the position from 158 to 160. You may also have to change the Satellites.xml to match the change if your editor doesn't do it.

                    I dont know what happened but after updating enigma 2 and installing a new sgt flip flop boquet II found that 16E had disappeared and 15.8E was available to be tuned. So now everything works. ( These boxes are still a mystery to me at times)
