It even looks like diablo is supported...

(but as I can't be arsed to update mine at the moment, I cant confirm 100%)

But its certainly responding in the diablo menu, and not locking out the fta channels as it did before.

Thanks a lot mate for the update. I am just keeping my figers crossed and waiting for my replaced Azbox to be delivered to me so then I can try it and Mgcamd.

Just badly missing my azbox, it seems i've really fallen in love with it

I did an upgrade and it went fine... Then it rebooted with 5 options and chose "format application area"..

After that it failed to boot with some update failed error...I am updated it once again...

Fingers crossed...

AJR

and chose "format application area"..

Maybe not a good choice..

Its not the option I would of selected, I would of removed the usb drive and just done a plain old boot.

Not quite sure what your long explanation means?

Diseqc doesn't work with the VBox when changing satellites...

And when you try to find tune the dish left or right the key strokes are not very consistent...

Too many keystores are sent to the receiver... Also the RGB mode cannot be selected anymore...

I think he means that it got leaked (in order to appease the masses of beta testers :D)

What version is the current official version??

Tarzan
26-03-2009, 05:51 PM
I am using HDMI btw...There is no way you can change the option...

Currently Diseqc is not working for me with the VBox and it is a bit annoying for me...

I tried selecting the top menu in the channel list (All , Satellite, Favourite etc) but I can't select that option...

I might go back to the previous firmware and check if it is broken in this version...

An update: Diseqc works very well with the VBox...

The receiver is slow to respond to the commands from the remote... I end up pressing the keys one too many times...

Now the next step is to learn how to clear something...

Btw I could only scan 90 channels on 23.5 but with my Vantage 7100S I get about 260+...

Am going to deploy the new patch and try again...

Where can I download a database with the upto date frequency list?

EDIT: The receiver get a bit warm though...

EDIT: Updated with the latest firmware and now I can get about 270 channels on 23.5 and emu works fine...

How do you fine tune a sat which you have alread saved?... If I try to move the dish left or right, it takes the dish back to the saved position...

bobi
26-03-2009, 09:13 PM
well , as i said before im not intrested in the Usals
i have other boxes here that do not support the usals , and this is the reason i want diseqc 1.2 to work, as then i can settup the Azbox HD with my disired motor number and then use it

this way i can use the same motor with diferent receivers

i have not tetsed the last software 1605 tht is being discusted now
but will do that later today as soon as i get home


cheers

Diablo cam is indeed recognised, but I'm darned if I can get it to clear anything.

A previously recorded programme that played ok yesterday.. now causes the box to lock up.

The new ftp client wont remember its last used connection details.

Ho hum.. aint life grand

Some good news,

I have 5 lnbs being seen now by the Azbox using the first four set to diseqc 1.0 and the 5th being set to 1.1 lnb 1.
I could only see 4 on previous firmware.
I am using 1605, I will be adding more lnbs this weekend and playing so we will see if it is now supporting more than it used to.

for DiSEqC 1.2 is ok it works
but a new bug:
in the first version the satellite nilesat 7 ° w been sat in the list, and the 1473 version there is no, but I added the satellite and it works well.
1605 in this version you can not add a satellite he created lots of problem and reboot.
but this version makes everything much, I had a ringing in my screen when I met with hdmi mode menu I had imagined that this was the cause, but it after that last update it has disappeared

I have not understood, it is not a scan but the name of the satellite is Nilesat

7°W has disappeared, and when you want to add it adds nothing but bug and

sometimes you must reboot. .

I found the same thing myself....

Btw does anybody have a full database with all sats (visible in europe) and the active transponders?? Or how can I update the list automatically?

goran
27-03-2009, 12:21 PM
Do you have 4.8 and 5'E separately? I mean, have you tried scanning on 8'W for 7'W as well? Maybe for stronger transponders which are not directed at Egypt but the wide beam? I can't get it, as I am way too far up North...

It used to mess up all else for me, as it could only see Astra 2 on the 5th LNB... Now, it can't see no. 5 but it does see a transponder from Sirius on no. 6. Strange but true. The rest [Astra 2, Astra1, Euro on 126'E and HB] are on DiSEqC 1.0, from 1 - 4.

It is scanning and seeing just Sirius channels, as I write this... We'll see how it ends...:drool5:

goran
27-03-2009, 01:11 PM
Couldn't get it to see Thor or any other subsequent position.

And as I suspected, it messed up the 1.0 LNB's 1 - 4, so no signal there, after the scan on Sirius for LNB 6 in v. 1.1.

Had to put the Sirius LNB to OFF after that and then I got the signal back on the first 4.

Back to square 1...

Yep after some playing today I am in the same boat mat...

when updating over the net...finished 100% download.....my box just hangs on UPGRADE....screen is black with no signal.....turn the power off on the back and everything back to the old firmware 1473.....will try it manually

Same problem I had... in my case this was because incubuscamd was still running... so it hang. Good rule for future STOP all emus before upgrade.

I`ve done it manually and it worked.....with this version incubusCamd still stops after 30 sec. while recording......its a big BUG to me....no stable recordings yet.
Will try the 1.2 diseq motor later and see if that works
