I had the same problem with the Hispasat 30W, but i think i find the solution.

In the Antenna Configuration when you select the HISPASAT satellite there are some parameters that are not ok by default:
"LNB Power": 18V
"DisEQC1.0": LNB2
"22KHz": off
If i do my Automatic or Blind search with these parameters it scan only 50-60 channel.

The solution for my side was change to these parameters:
"LNB Power": 13V/18V
"DisEQC1.0": None (in my case)
"22KHz": Auto
With these parameters if scan more than 300 channels in Automatic or Blind search.

Check this guys and let us know if it fix the issue in your side too

Oh, dear Kegnkiwi, we are in the same boat.

Good to know that the problem is not with my unit in particular, but general and then more closely to be fixed (cross-fingers...).
But sad to realize that you lost your backup. It's always a pain to, after scanning, sort the channels on that Geant Channel Editor (or even worse with the remote). 😖

Since I have multiple lnbs connected with a diseqc, I always have to set everything up and I could swear that I have double-checked every parameter (voltage, diseqc port, etc although I'm not completely sure about the 22KHz), but with the Dual we never know... stranger things happens all time!

I will give a try tomorrow and then let you know! Many thanks, by the way!

I have had a little time to play this evening after my box would not upload a channel list to it. I told the box do download a channel list from the online option. After it had said success i tried going back into the channel list and the receiver came up as saying no channels available. After this i went back into the back up & load screen and went through the process of loading a channel list i had saved and this time i got success. All back to normal now including my serial number being available.

However, after uploading the backup, you can look for the exactly same individual tp's, do a blind scan and then, miraculously, it finds all channels.
Others have already noticed that the lists contain not only channel data, but also many other settings, Coordinates, motor, LNB sub, etc.

The way I "solved" the problem for now was uploading my channels backup. Curiously, after having my backup installed, making a new search (blind or not) will bring the usual +350 Hispasat channels, not only the 50-60 with the raw installation of 1.11. 🤷‍♂️
These parameters should of worked on your switch

LNB Power”: change to “13V/18V”
Diseqc1.0”: “None’ (in our case)
22KHz: change to “Auto”

SUCCSESS! Thank you all!

I had changed the settings of the LNB Power and Diseqc in accordance with my setup, but I neglected the 22KHz. With the firm 1.11 it came selected as "OFF" when "AUTO" should have been my selected option. I was having glimpses from the buggy firm 1.7 (if I'm not mistaken) when we were able to pull in more channels with a normal search then with a blindscan... 😵‍💫 You know, Dual's owner trauma 😅

In this picture it's shown the messed up settings that came selected from the factory with the 1.11

Seems like the dual is moving forward in its development
Yeah, that's unarguably true. (No more random boot loops its a bless). However, the overall experience still unsatisfactory. For eg., the most essencial thing is to open channels as quick as possible. But if you compare the Dual with a Viark 4K, you will be overwhelmed with the difference in terms of time needed to clear one given channel, or channels clearing in the Viark but not in the Dual. I did that experience myself and that is shameful (Dual and V4k in Hispasat).

There is something between the device and the server that needs to be improved, because some channels take ages to clear (or not even clear) in the Dual in comparison with the other Viarks.

If you haven't already, start afresh with the new factory firmware v6.00 then go straight to v1.11 for me channels mostly open within 5 seconds now

Humm, are you telling me that there is some kind of improvement in starting afresh with the 6.0 and then straight to 1.11 in comparison with the previous procedure? My current installation started with a factory reset, then 5.0, reset, special firm, reset, 1.11, reset.

Since I do not have much to lose, I think I will give it a chance :unsure:

Yes it looks like some of the improvements are in the factory 6.00 firmware.
I loaded factory 6.00 using the recovery method and factory reset after both 6.00 and 1.11
And I didn't load any database backups I rescanned my sats

Channel switching on Sly de has been reduced by 4 seconds.
These used to take 6-8 seconds due to double coding. I haven't experienced any other changes during a few hours of mixed use.

Thx guys! I did as you suggested, factory reseting and then 6.0, reset, 1.11, reset, and I can afirm that the overall experience in terms of how quick it clears channels has improved a little bit. I surfed for a while during the weekend from 30W to 28.2E and the outcome was very satisfactory, better that before certainly. However, my beloved Portuguese channels remain more or less the same, with some sports and movies channels not clearing at all. But who cares about Portuguese channels? :ROFLMAO: I'm more than happy with what we have!!

The only thing that intrigues me is that, for eg, if the device can clears the channels of a given package of sports of movies, let's say, the channels 1, 2, 4 and 6, why it does not clear the 3 and the 5? Anyway as I said, I'm more than happy with what we have! Do not misinterpret me!

I also have tried that new official 6 and then went to 1.11. All seems ok at the moment.

The unpleasant thing about using it is that it doesn't send a diseqc command when it starts up, it doesn't lock onto the satellite, e.g. if it was on another satellite on the previous E2.
In this case, you have to choose another channel, on another satellite, because the neighboring zap doesn't move it, it thinks it's already there.
If it is in Preferences - display - Auto mode, it sometimes chooses incorrectly depending on the source and I get a very bad color error.
PAL mode works well.

Hi guys, please
I needed a list with 4 satellites which are 30ºw, 13, 19.2 and 28.0 E. Because I have a small problem when changing satellites I no longer have access to channels on the new satellite.
Also, my list is almost a year old.
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.
