Many thanks Alan

iz3zlu,

Forgot to add that when subscribed,
VIIRS-EDR appears on Basic channel E1B-TPL-1, (previously NPP-1 before channel renaming)
VIIRS-EARS appears on HVS-1 channel E1H-RDS-1

Cheers,
Alan

iz3zlu,

Glad you've got it working. Day-night band images are part of VIIRS data so you need to subscribe to 

GDS-SNPP/NOAA-20: VIIRS EDR
RDS-EARS: VIIRS

To display the images I use EUMETCastView from here

Many thanks to all.

On the systems here, I set up a separate instance of the MSG Data Manager for Himawari. This avoids a single instance asking for a larger amount of memory, and allows the OS to manage memory better. This also prevents getting too much data in a single directory - a common directory is not required.

So I have - Zero degree, IODC, Rapid Scan, and Himawari - four instances.

Recommended!

Cheers,
David

many Thanks Alan.
Now works fine!!!

However, I had to select the bas / default folder otherwise I would not receive the images as that folder is selected on the MSG data manager. Now I will make a new instance with the path of the new folder.
I would like to ask if I can how to receive dnb images - day night band. I saw that it shows the illuminated cities. Thanks for the invaluable help.

!

For MSG Data Manager to see it, the Himawari-8 data needs to be in Eumetsat_Data_Channel_4, (the original Foreign Satellite Data channel) so in your 'cast-client-channels_hvs-1.ini' file you need to have an entry something like this

Excuse me, for detail 1 I solved.  Visible LUT on none ....
