You can cascade the two multiswitches, but only if the 4X4 switch will pass the 22kHz signal required for switching the LNBs for SAT B & SAT C. ... now wired...

I don't think you'll do better than a Spaun multiswitch. They're reported to be the best available. If the 4X4 multiswitch is in addition to the built-in...

DirecTV doesn't broadcast 1920x1080i. It's 1280x1080i. Also, the correct name for the software is TyTool....
