glitching

[chadd48]

HI All

Is everyone suffering form glitching on mscam or could it be my gear that is the cause.

[chadd48]

iptv does freeze as well but not as bad as the mscam

if you are on vm check speed about 7.30 pm

[chadd48]

Thanks Will check speed as I am on cm but glitching happens all day not just night when demand high

[chadd48]

That should state vm not cm bloody predictive text

[c31]

my box is freezing all the time every few seconds on mscam and cccam put same cccam lines in my spiderbox works perfect so does mscam

Thanks.

2.2.01 date 2017 01 20

[jacko01]

Hi Tinto, it's version 2.2.01, dated 2017.01.20,it didn't improve things for me at first so I downloaded it again and saw a huge improvement for a couple of hours,don't get too excited though it's been breaking up pretty badly for the last hour on 28e.

Also I have Tried a cline but that is also unwatchable at the moment

[tinto de verano]

Hi jack01,

Thanks for the quick repluy.

I keep trying... but I cannot see that new 2.2.01 version.

???

I even unplugged the box and tried again... still 2.1.97 only.

I hope it appears soon, somehow , on HTTP upgrade.

Thanks for the info.

If by "glitching" you mean breaking up, I've found that switching to another channel for a few seconds and back again cures the problem for a while. Have only noticed this on HD channels. Nothing lost by giving it a try.

Hi Philips,yes breaking up,tried switching channels and as you say it does improve but in my case for only a short time maybe 2-3 mins, my problem is also on sd channels on sat

Hi,

I have been using that trick (HS to SD to HD to SD...) for the last few days... it works, but quite annoying.

Still on 2.1.97, but I have to say that I watched some footy without a single glitch on 19.2... and it has been almost perfectly stable since the end of the match.

I will try again to see if I can get the latest 2.2.01 version... Have they fixed the "IP address lost" issue, by the way?
or Fixed the Favs issue?
or Fixed the second IPTV missing option?

Anything new?

Thanks.

tinto,
Favs not working properly or me with 2.2.01. As others have said favs are there but are blank other than "All"

Spiderbox has been doing the same thing using 1K$, HD channels seem the worst affected, I swapped the power supply but it made no difference, some channels are worse than others.

In the last week TV3 Portugal has gone from being rock steady to pixelating badly with a good strong signal.

I had some problems with 2.1.97. Eventually my solution was to do a factory reset and then load,from a USB, the last patch 2.1.82 below in the download's section. When I done that, the latest Http patch appeared in the upgrade section of the box and I was able to download it from there.
Dont forget to save your Channel list first to a USB, it'll have to be re-installed.
You may have to re-enter your Mscam code and any other lines that you were using, aswell.

[Tano]

Hi,sw 2.1.91 on cccam and iptv work's perfect for me, i don't have any issue

[tinto de verano]

Hi.

Thanks to everyone for their replies.

@lonewolfe: thanks for sharing your issues and how you fixed. Maybe not tonight, not much time, I will try the factory reset, downgrade and upgrade to the latest version... if it hopefully shows up.

Thanks.

Jacko

I just upgraded to the 2.2.01 firmware and my favourite lists are still there. The list looks blank, but if you scroll down, the blank below All is Fav List 1 and one below that is List 2 etc. Maybe that's what you meant though?

[tinto de verano]

Hi Weston Calling,

Yes that is the issue with the FAVS I was referring to.

[tinto de verano]

I just want to say again thanks to lonewolfe,

I followed your advice, downgraded to 2.1.82... and HTTP showed the latest firmware 2.2.01, plus 2 other ones.

To start with, there are no missing icons now in the 2 interface pages (I had one missing).

Let me check the rest of the stuff...

THANKS!

Hi: Could you tell me exactly where to find the http firmare downloads?

Thanks

[tinto de verano]

If I remember correctly:

Backup and upgrade (or maybe Upgrade and backup), HTTP upgrade, red button.

Something like that. Not at home now, sorry.

If you read the Hitech firmware updates section you would have seen this info:


Online Upgrade :
Upgrade and backup - HTTP Upgrade - red button (Default server) - green button (Download & Upgrade)

Point taken Aldo. I did read blackdevil's post, however, ("How to upgrade your Box") and when he referred to (under "upgrade by US")
the identification of the file, the location of the file didn't appear obvious. Thanks for your input.

Hi
If you mean upgrade via USB the upgrades are where they have always been in the Files/Firmware section

[tinto de verano]

New 2.2.02 available on HTTP upgrade by the way.

[jacko01]

Latest 2.2.02 worked fine for me last night,slight gliching early on then settled down very well.
Vast improvement as far as I am concerned.

Thanks to all concerned.

Jacko

[c31]

must say new software works the best my box has ever worked

[jacko01]

Hi Folks,after a good couple of days I am now having problems again with picture breaking up again,anybody else having problems or is it just at my end?

Thanks, Jacko

[c31]

mine is still fine may glitch once or twice in evening but not bad

[jacko01]

mine is still fine may glitch once or twice in evening but not bad

Thanks c31,mine was quite bad last night sometimes freezing completely,but is also breaking up to a lesser extent today,I have reloaded latest firmware so will see how it goes today,

Thanks for your prompt reply

[c31]

mine was unwatchable until I put in new software if its any help I done a factory restore didn't save anything rescanned redone favs works perfect I have had it on for a few hours today no glitching at all

[mikej05]

Thank you for the update the new software seems better. One thing I noticed was the when i pressed to record before it would not work unless i turned off STB and back on again then press record and it would work.
This seems to work ok now.

My only question is about the EMU keys section, it seems that BISS keys section has now gone? Or is it me?

Great to see the FAV button to download keys from internet is back in this software version!

thanks for all the support!

Hi all,

By the way, I think it should be important to mention which satellite we are using when reporting if channels work seamlessly or if there is glitching or if they do not work at all.

A couple of nights ago, it did not work on 19.2, but it was perfect on 28.2.

Last night it was almost perfect on 19.2, although I did not check on 28.2.

I have a feeling, from previous checks, that 28.2 and other sats tend to be more stable/work better than 19.2.

In fact, in the past, I mentioned the issues with 19.2, and Blackdevil said they were working on it... and they fixed it.

Thanks.
