Look like a switch problem configuration.
You scan for 110 and 119. Il the switch did not work for your channel B, it will see channels for your channel A (again). That why it shows channel twice. Check how you config your DIESqC section or verify DISEqC string send.
Good luck !

What DVB-S card are you using? I had the same issue in the past but we need a little more information as to what you are using to get the signal.

and he could write that information to his signature. so nobody would have to ask same thing again and again.

Nrmf,
Did you try another application software (ProgDVB,MT) to verify that your switch is not defective ?
Does it do the same problem with older version of DD (example: DD 0.8.9b) or DD 1.1a.
It seems that your are trying to beam on 110 and 119 for D#SH Network. Am I right ?

seems i am an idiot if i change the disqec setting under 22khz to off then rescan all seems well double channels go away i had left it at default on this new system in bedroom where it was controlled, now all seems better.. i think i have a signature now so rel keep pumping out the updates...thanks

heh, you have a 22 khz tone switch probably (might be built-in on LNBs) or it is somehow interfering the diseqc switch/LNBs when it is "controlled by LNB". glad to hear you fixed it

well i know i dont have a switch maybe i didnt write the right option under disqec for you but if i understand you correctly is it possible to use the dual lnbs that have a built in sw21 and just turn it off, if thats the case look out 82 and 91 here i come

You must ask it to experienced NA users. i'm not very familiar with NA switch and LNB systems. my knowledge about them is just what I have heard/read so far.
DD supports following switching systems:
- 22khz on/of
- Tone burst on/off (Mini Diseqc)
- Diseqc 1.2 (this is only switch type used in Europe)
