You don't need a forum: you'd need a wizard to get an answer with such a poor set of information.
Be much more detailed to have chances to get any help, please.

If you mean that you have signal quality, but can't scan in any channels, it might be that your dish is pointed at the wrong satellite, or you have the tuner set up incorrectly, or the signal quality level isn't high enough to scan in any channels.
It might be best if you post in your own language, and then use google translate, to change it into English, and post both your own language, and English. Hopefully this will help members understand your problem.

Forget the clock, that should be an easy fix, later.
Does 13E scan in correctly?
Does 3E scan in correctly?
I would try setting A to Astra 1 19.2E and everything else to not connected, then try a blind scan, and see what channels, if anything, you get, check names, and frequencies, against lyngsat, or kingofsat.
Then se A to not connected, and B to Astra 1 19.2E, and try scanning again, then just with C set to19.2E, and then just D set to 19.2E, and see if any of them pick up the correct channels, for 19.2E.
A lot of satellites are discontinuing DVB-S, in favour of DVB-S2, and future 4K channels.

If you're getting channels, from other satellites, then it's working, and is just a setting, or software problem, if not then it could be hardware.
The first test is to try connecting a cable directly from the LNB, to the receiver, bypassing the Diseqc switch, and see if you get any channels scan in.
Alternatively you could connect the receiver to a different dish, friends, or family member, to check it.

There is also another fact: as clearly posted by the coders, is not a good idea to use BH 309 in flash in old decoders.
You should install a light image like OBH in flash and then BH in omb (by the plugin openmultiboot).
This is advisable in general, even if your problem did not depend on the facto you use BH in flash.
So, it's worth a try to install in omb.

It is possible that your satellite isn't pointed at 19E, or 13E, as you also had 3E listed in your images.
How are you scanning for channels? Have you tried a blind scan?
Did you set the tuner up as Simple, single satellite?
Are you certain your dish hasn't moved and your picking up a different satellite, like 23.5E, or 16E, or other?

I had missed your pictures with the multiple satellites. You must absolutely simplify your settings! Otherwise becomes very difficult to catch where the problem is.
1) Connect only one cable directly to the box (NO DiSEqC SWITCH!!!). Are you sure about each cable which satellite it corresponds? I hope so.
Otherwise, check them one by one using the same setup that must be this:
2) SIMPLE / Single, that means only one satellite (for instance 13E)
Now you can start the test: perform a manual scan (single satellite, of course) from 13E.
If the fist cable doesn't get any channel, probably it's not really 13E. So test the second cable and so on.
If you don't have easily access to your DiSEqC switch, it may be a problem, because maybe your VU+ is OK, your LNBs are OK, your dish(es) are correctly pointing at the satellites but it's just the switch that's faulty.
If you can get to the switch and this is near the LNB (not near the VU+) connect the first cable directly to the LNB and try.
In case, you'll be swapping cables directly near the dish, instead that near the VU+.
But, above all, one change at the time! otherwise you won't be sure where the problem is.

Actually, if you know how to flash images, my advice is also to try OpenBlackHole because, when it runs the initial wizard setup, immediately after the install, it also got the AUTOMATIC detection of satellites connected to each of the DiSEqC ports. And this means testing either the switch or... the correspondence between cables and satellites

??? In the interest of the whole forum, is a good practice to explain what exactly you did to solve your issue, thanks.
here it says in detail how we can fix it
