&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;I want my dstv channels to be as separate channels in my media center live tv environment so that I only have to use the mce remote to change the channels of the dstv so that I dont have to use the dstv remote. I tried using all the different codes under the lists of UEC, Multichoice and DSTV but none of them worked.
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;Oh wait - you want to use the actual remote to point at the decoder and change channels? 
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Or are you using one of those IR eyes that sticks onto the decoder?

&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;So I take it you can cortrol your decoder with your mce remote.
&lt;br /&gt;
I'll give all the options a try and see.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Thanx.

&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;Keep trying various ones - you'll find one that works &lt;img src=&quot;http://techies.co.za/phpBB2/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif&quot; alt=&quot;Smile&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt; 
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Try under multichoice and UEC.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I had the same problem with my Dual View - eventually got it working using the above method - not ideal - but gets the job done.

&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;Electrocomp is great, dealt with them for many years before I moved to NZ, my biggest complaint about NZ is there is no one like electrocomp! give Paul my regards....
&lt;br /&gt;
  If you really want to get ahead with PIC's, do a course with Bruce Galbraith in Pinetown, best PIC programmer in the business and runs courses.

&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;The alignment parameters for receiving our signal from Sirius 4:
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Address: durban, south africa
&lt;br /&gt;
Latitude: -29.8570°
&lt;br /&gt;
Longitude: 31.0248°
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Satellite: 4.8E Sirius 3, 4
&lt;br /&gt;
Elevation: 44.9°
&lt;br /&gt;
Azimuth (true): 315.3°
&lt;br /&gt;
Azimuth (magn.): 340.1°
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Our decoder should tune automatically to the “home” signal after power-on or a reset, but if required here are the tuning parameters:
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Satellite frequency: 12 525 MHz, vertical
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Modulation: 8PSK, DVB-S2 (just about all standard DSTV decoders will no be compatible) with 0.2 roll-off factor
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Symbol rate: 30 MSps
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
FEC: 2/3
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please remember to check your LNB setting, using the remote press Menu, select Settings, select System seup, enter the PIN (“0000”) press Enter, select Installation setup, select Satellite setup, scroll down to the LNB High LO and change 10 600 to your 10 700, if necessary

&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;Hi Guys,
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I am newbie here...
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I was so pleased to find this forum!  We work with customers who are involved in Product Development and by implication create technical documentation.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I have heard quite a few comments lately that technical writers are scarce and and is considered a dying breed in SA.  Thank goodness for this forum and community.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Our software solutions are pretty useless without someone to drive them, so this is quite a relief.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Well done, keep up the good work.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Duan

&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;MVDH,
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I agree... DITA is very flexible and can be used where any topic based information is more suitable.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I have however found that most people feel that it requires a mind shift which can sometimes be a bit of a challenge if you are trying to convince a team of writers to convert from what they know to DITA.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
One of the most compelling reasons to go to DITA is content re-use.  Therefore I would also consider implementing a suitable CMS that is capable of managing DITA information.
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Regards,
&lt;br /&gt;
Duan
