hopeing someone can help my ultimo was setup and working ok running Blackhole 1.6.6. i downloaded a couple of scripts and rebooted and the picture went off sand i got a error "service unavailable check tuner"

i have removed both scripts but same problem exsists.

on tuner config it says

Configuration mode-simple
mode-single
satellite- nothing connected
send diseqc no


i have tryed a factory reset and setting up setup again but it still get tuner unavalible error. i have tryed connecting sat feed from the sky dish into a & b tuners on ultimo.

only think i have not tryed is a reflash of blackhole however unsure how you reflash it.

anyone have any ideas please.

a reflash should get you back but go slow, this is the way BUT check the dummies guide on here as well and read a bit.

Sounds like 1 of the scripts tried to update the channel list / satellite.xml file and has made it incompatable.

I have had this myself in the past.

Just upload a fresh channel list, and setup your tuners again should be enough to fix it.

If not, as above reflash your box and then after setting it up do a fresh channel scan and you should be fine.

Just for info, BH 1.6.6 is an old image now, 1.7.5 has just been released and there are alot of improvements.

Depends which package(s) you want.

Catseye settings are popular, but I tend to just do manual scan's of each satellite I receive.

You can download catseye settings from the addon server, the updated settings were added today.
