server could be down, I alternate between satmate & rytec, both should ba in your epg options

i had trouble yesterday, its working now have just downloaded the next 7 days so may have been server issues. do a reboot before you download sometimes that works for me

Hi am having the same problems. Neither Satmate or Rytec are working for me . Am running dm 800 hd clone with blackhole v12 on it. Servers must be down. Anybody else having same issuses.

I must be doing something wrong. still cant download satmate or rytec. was working fine till 2 days ago. just tried it again now and still same problem. box crashes.are you storing the epg on usb ? and is it crashing with a green screen ?, if it is, take out the usb, reformat, mount it and try again

[jordansboy]

No am storing it to an internal hdd. have a black screen every time it crashes. its driving me nuts lol. should I put something into the media file on the hdd etc

[reddevil157]

I have been advised not to store epg and picons on hdd, as the drive is said to spin constantly, ppl have advised to store them both on usb ( 2gb ), both the epg and picons take up very little space on usb stick. Works fine for me.

I have epg & picons stored on internal hard drive, the only time the drive spins is on boot up and then goes into standby which I have set at 1 min. no issues at all.
Cheers,
