Hi
yes I did find cable scan as an option but did not sacn any channels for me .
I think I have a signal issue . strange because subbed modem/router for broadband is ok but the modded box I have from a long time ago does not give me any free channels and shows no signal
I have to find my subbed original cable box and see if I get any channels on that
the Autobouquets_C2 plugin will come in handy when I can get a start .
when I tried an old cable box that I had it would not play the free channels bbc1 etc. I booted into the box via holding the up and down arrow keys while powering.
here the signal show as poor
I tried the n.tl cable directly into the box, via a splitter and still no signal yet when I put the same cable into my subbed router it works fine
I was assuming that it was not a signal problem from this am I wrong ....
maybe this new router detects a lower/different signal that that required for the cable box..
I have had a modem/router for internet for years but do not have a cable tv box
could this be the issue as regards signal strength
can you give me a link to PLi-4 gjstroom patched sim-2 image
Thanks
I have noticed in sat finder that signal is 0 ie SNR and AGC
the cable should be fine as the cable modem is locking and work fine with same cable
tuner .tuner c trial DVB-c

If I go to cable scan
I have changed network id to 41051
I do not know what the frequency and symbol rates should be
frequency seems to be only 3 digits
symbol rate seems to be 4 digits
I have found this Watford - Herts NTL/C&W, 41051 666750 6952
I tried and chaned symbol rate to 6952
but do not know how to enter frequency as I only have 3 digits space to enter 666750 ............. I have tried 750 but no luck
thanks for replying
if I replaced to a cable tuner . could I than use any image and just modify the sat.xml file
i have found the trial tuner drivers for my box and installed . i now get in tuner configuration 3 tuner listings .
i have disabled the T and the S parts and enabled the cable part ...
the only thing i have chaned here was the network id to 41051 (my are)
when you come out of the this options are automatic scan .. this gives error
manual scan default frequency is 466 which i left alone symbol rate is 06900 again left as is but no channels found . tried single transponder and complete scan
cable scan this has default frequency of 323 and a symbol rate of 6875 both i left as standard.. failed scan
i have simply disconnected my cable router input cable and inserted via f type connector to my dm800se ..
at the moment i just want to tune the cable channels and if successful can get a splitter to use router as well as box
when you say modified satellite.xml file i do not know the frequencies to modify to . is there a link to a modified file i could transfere to the box
sorry for all the questions but new to cable setup. If i cannot get trail tuner to work i will buy a cable tuner and start again but would like to give tuner a go because the driver are installed . it must be the scan settings
Hi
I have a dm800se clone box. its the one with the mini flash up button on the back
I have always used this for satellite use and would like to try uk cable.
can someone post a link to current cable image.
this box is the one that requires a trial tuner driver (3 in one)
any help will be appreciated. Thanks
Hi,
Just installed ubuntu for the first time . desktop version
is there a version of dreambox connect that works with this .
using browse network/ i can see my boxes ie dm800se and vusolo2 but the default user root and password dreambox does not work
any ideas?
hi,
I hope this is not a silly question but where do you get the username and password?
Do you need to register with a paysite?
I have installed the above plugin on a dm800se box
going to plugin shows favourite (0)
live (237)
how do I play this
menu gives a login screen .. is there a default user and password
using opkg install python-argparse has fixed the error message
when the plugin starts going to menu and selecting adult pin etc is still there but no option to turn adult on and off unless this is
activate grauzone which does not work as it crashes (green screen)
I am having trouble updating or installing latest media portal. I get the following error message
" no module named argparse"
I have tried opkg update but no luck
the image I am using is OE-exp-dm800se-2015-04-15-16-52 . it comes up with alimac on booting
Hi
thanks for replying again.
I found the solution to my problem . I have in menu/setup/system/ HDMI-CEC Setup
I disabled this and all is ok now
THanks
The tv is a Samsung 9 series.
I cannot find any standy setting on the tv
I don't think it is the tv because previous images on the dm800se did not do this with the same tv
it must be a setting on this particular image that is set differently but I can not find it
I am having problem with my receiver going to standby . I want to record something overnight .I wake up to find the box is on standby and has only recorded part of the program.
I have changed menu/setup/system/harddisk/ hard disk setup /hard disk standby after/ to No standby
where else can I change to keep box on without going to standby mode
Hi
where can I get the latest channel list for the v8s
does this box need its own list or should I be looking at a different open box number/version . Thanks
I do not get signal on some channels eg colours
Checked frequency etc which seems fine (low snr)
Strange because colours is a FTA channel
Any ideas
THis is the best image I have tried so far. up till now open pli was what I have been using.
ON software update everything update fine but after rebooting the box gets stuck in a loop on the open atv and the spinner screen.
But if you avoid the update its great.. you can install plugins like media portal without trying to add any dependancies ...
Thanks
ok sorted librtmp0 error by loading from ts panel/addons/tunisiasat addons/ts media library
where can I find python-mechanize.. can some one upload . Thanks
Hi
Sorry for late reply
Tried to install via tspannel media portal 5.0.6
but get python-mechanize librtmp0 error
how do I fix this .. Thanks
