Have to say my GT Media V8UHD box has a life of its own LOL, today it reset the power standby, front panel brightness, and reset the all channels order. It didn't clear my favourites as previously.
Have checked if it has updated the firmware its self and still dated the 7th July, and I cant see anywhere in settings to stop the channel list auto updating.
MAD ! LOL

On the viarks you can turn that setting off. A lot of people suddenly found there dishs moving without their consent.
I think that's the same as the one I have (even though mine doesn't say "master and slave" it only works correctly when only one box is powered on at one time. I really would like one that wouldn't mind if both boxes were on at the same time? Is this where Unicable LNB is required?

I was thinking motorised dish ok for one person but no good for different persons in home

Use a twin lnb on the end of the dish, one feed to the motor and then to feist box and the 2nd feed direct to 2nd box.
but how does that work if dish moves both are still pointing at the same satellite

Yes that's right if you want different satellites then it's either a 2nd dish or fixed dish with multiple lnbs on an arm.

That's the one I have. It allows both my Vu+Solo2 & Viark 4K to each move the dish. I never unplug either of the boxes to achieve this.

I'll try later on , so both powered on and it doesn't mess either box up , you can view both the same time different rooms , obviously same channel

I can check when I get home, but I'm pretty sure the Vu+Solo2 (which I don't often use) is connected to slave, and the Viark4K is connected to master. Both boxes are always powered up(though the Vu+Solo2 would usually be on standby. I can use the Viark to move to 16e for instance, turn that one off and start using the Solo2 and move dish to 19.2e. All works fine. Both remain plugged in with power all the time. (Though whichever box I'm not using would be on standby). I've never tried watching in 2 different rooms. Both boxes are in my lounge.

Ah yeah that's how mine works it's fine at moving to different sats whilst one is in stand by. But it doesn't allow you to view on both at the same time. I only use the GT atm the Vu and xtrend are in the bedrooms.

Ah ok. Never given that any thought. Sorry if I got your hopes up
Yeah and the sh1t games miss out not an ice breaker
There are many tv operators worldwide who broadcast all Serie A games but none of them offer a simulcast of matches kicking off at the same time.
Zona Dazn offer a quick action multicast with commentary from each match.
It goes from stadium to stadium with quick "flips" to matches as goals are scored.

I was going to ask is it possible to manually make a favourite bouquet list for say just sports (footy) that inc's all the relevant sats for the forth coming season
