the box has not had (by me) , or does not have any sd card attached, other than the one I tried to update with, does this still mean I need to do as you suggest?. Also what are the "ts streams"?. sorry to be so dense , but I know nothing about this box, except what you are teaching me. Does the front panel always read "good"

did what you advised anyway, the panel now shows the channel no when on dtv, and it appears to be ok
