Hi there
I have an original DM500HD with a motorised dish that has been working fine for over a year now but yesterday seemed to develop this weird problem.
This problem seems to be on the Astra 28.2 channels. Channels which I have previously had no problems watching now come up with the "no tune" message. It mostly seems to be all the Sly HD movies and HD sports channels. The weird thing is that every now and then the picture comes up for a few seconds then breaks up and freezes again.
I thought that maybe my image "Gemini" had become corrupted or it was a drivers problem so I installed the latest OpenPli stable image. I also set up my sat positions again and rescanned 28.2 east but I'm still having the same problems.
As the picture does clear occasionly I'm guessing the tuner is fine and of course half the channels (some of the HD channels too) still work on Astra 28.2.
It makes me think this a software problem more that a hardware problem.
Does anyone have any idea what this might be or have come across this before?
Thanks
