Hi there,

I have Skybox F5s and i am using AJ's current channel list from his updated thread. However i am having an issue with Life OK channel. The channel has intermittent problem i.e comes on for a bit than goes back to "scrambled"(repeat). I don't know what is causing the issue because other channels are fine.

Ive checked my internet connection and it appears to be fine. I have tried the following but it didn't solve the issue:


Delete the channels
Reboot Box
Apply the Channel list
Reboot Box
Turn box off
Unplug main power cable from Box
Plug mains power cable into box
Turn it back on


My gift provider keeps saying check your setup but what should i be exactly checking when all the other channels work fine.

I will try updating the box with latest firmware if that makes any difference.

I would appreciate if you could provide me with other suggestions i can try.

Cheers,

I take it you mean Star Life OK.

I and many others have the same problem with this channel, sometimes it just will not unscramble.

When I selected it nearly a minute passed before it cleared. Leave it on for while without keep changing channels.

I have a good idea what the problem is but don't want to push the rules.
