Limit on no of Channels and Transponders???

[Tarzan]

Last week I had scanned all the satellites available from my location between 39E and 30W except 23.5E after updating all the transponders on all the satellites from *********.com using the channel editor.

Today morning I decided to scan 23.5E and I noticed that it skipped a few transponders for which I rebooted receiver and tried again.

This time it scanned all the transponders and I saved it. but when I went to the channel list, 23.5E was showing only one channel (NED1 HD).

I deleted the sat and tried scanning again and this time once again it just saved the above channel.

I switched off the reciever and went to work. In the evening when I powered up the receiver, there was a message on the screen "no channel list available" or some thing like that.

When I went to the Satellite scanning in the settings option, I noticed that all my Satellite / Channel list had reset itself to factory defaults...

I have lost all my changes... :18:

Is there a limit set on the reciever?

No.

It happened to me, too. Over time the OS is corrupted.

Reinstall everything from scratch. 'Will be fine.

Mine started with losing HRT2, btw...

Suddenly - blank...

Here you have them from info posted on all_channel.dat format:


#define MAX_CHANNEL 15000
#define MAX_PROMO_CHANNEL 10
#define MAX_TV_CHANNEL 10000
#define MAX_RADIO_CHANNEL 5000
#define MAX_FAV_NUM 200
#define MAX_FAV 50
//------------------ group -------------------------------
#define MAX_PROVIDER 500
#define MAX_GENRE 100
#define MAX_COUNTRY 300

Yeah but who gets to that many? With 8 sat tv positions I'm stuck at 4385...

When I lost HRT2 - very soon it was "An error occurred, please reboot" and then very soon it couldn't get out of it, so I had to reinstall...

I bet it's that, rather than anything else! ;)

#define MAX_CHANNEL 15000
#define MAX_PROMO_CHANNEL 10
#define MAX_TV_CHANNEL 10000
#define MAX_RADIO_CHANNEL 5000

#define MAX_FAV 50
//------------------ group -------------------------------
#define MAX_PROVIDER 500
#define MAX_GENRE 100
#define MAX_COUNTRY 300


So whats default then, these lines are in-active due to the # in front.

Yeah but who gets to that many?

I think if we hit one of the limits then it gets corrupt and I am begining to think it's one of the following two.


#define MAX_PROVIDER 500
#define MAX_GENRE 100

I see. It may well be the case, come to think of it. I need to pay attention to it and see... I suppose...:respect-051:
