    No ITV channels

    Wonderful Reading on this Forum

    Was given this dm500c by friend who asked me to ''have a look at it'' so flashed it using Universal Dreamup v. 1.3.3.2 with DW v 2.1. 05.03.2008.Source: Digital Kaos http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f2/dm500c-28222/

    Flash was successful

    replaced services file

    Manually inserted k=ys

    My main prob atm is I HAVE NO ITV channels and signal breakup on some others.

    Any help appreciated.

      Sounds like a weak signal to me - usually ITV2 is bad on a weak signal.
      What are the signal readings ??
      Is it a genuine Dreambox - what tuner has it got ??

        Thanks for replies.

        Have done a few scans. Signal strength is c. 92

        What signs for genuine of clone? Tuner is Philips.

        Thanks again

              I read about the channels being shifted about recently and it may have something to do with the addition of the HD channels launching.....
              Here's for hoping!
              Sometimes a slow gradual approach does more good than a large gesture.

                I think I may have discovered what is happening here. I notice the signal has increased to 95 and all channels are up and running. I don't think we get all itv channels in dublin, just utv (I stand corrected on this!)

                Again thanks to everyone who helped.

                  mines is the same.. I always used to get 0 ber scanning UK6887 and now I have all weird signals and 20 ber

                  It still pulls the new freqs in anyway... i think its something to do with new chnls or changing chnls or something cos my trouble+1 changed to Living2+1 (which I never had before) and now theres no trouble+1 after scanning

                  I seen an ad for a new channel launching on the 17th or something.. maybe theyre moving things about for changes

                      Try to perform a manual scan but select the "network search" checkbox. This will use the PMT/PAT tables to search other MUX's for channels
