Hi,
I have Wisi OR 27 (DVB-S/T PVR) and it's grateful receiver, but I have found two issues - one bug, one bad feature
I have the last firmware available from Astra 19,2°

The bug is about recording
When I start record some TV channel, other channels that uses the same tuner, but other frequency dissapeare. That's normal, of course. But when I switch from TV mode to radio mode and then back all channels are available. Switching to some of them that was hidden cause drop-out and failure in the recorded stream.

The bad feature is about timer
When I unplug the power all timer settings are lost. I don't know why, when all other receiver and channel settings aren't.

The last thing is noise in audio when I plug the receiver to my Panasonic TV via VCR SCART, but connecting via TV SCART is OK. Also VCR SCART connected with Panasonic DVD or Tesla TV is OK. So this is not a problem, I only write it as a notice.

Any other issues I didn't find. It's fantastic receiver with full Czech language support, that I appreciate. It could have bigger HDD than 80GB, but it's not a problem for me, the HDD performs as a smart usable cache before I download the streams to the HTPC.

Thanks and good luck!

since there have been many modifications to the channel switching in the current Beta firmware (0.167), you may want to check, whether the bug remains with this release...
It runs without any (visible) problems on my Twin DVB-S/S receiver, but it should be fine for you S/T receiver, too.

But if you don't want to test, I could run a test on my S/S after configuring only 1 connected LNB this evening...

This is, unfortunately, very well known...

Could you futher describe, which "noise" you are hearing? (I could check this on my TX-32 PS11D then...)
Did you use the same Scart on TV, maybe there is one faulty on the TV?
