PLi - Scanning for services

[thered]

well good luck m8 im off to bed now

[westkill]

if your using a splitter do a scan of the main feed first then replace the splitter and see what channels work ok

[mercenary]

i keep scanning and get not one service. is there settings im missing? any tuner settings?

I would get rid of the booster altogather as I am sure too much signal is just as bad as too little signal. Have you tried copying the latest cables.xml file to var/etc folder and then doing a scan?

[mercenary]

i dont have a booster, i have the pli image , i have cables.xml in /var/etc which is linked to /var

where can i do a bruteforce scan?

what town area do you live in m8

ealing london

i have tried a manual scan, my box just doesnt like it

[westkill]

In the "service Scan" page it says ;

Tuner - Tuner A DVB-C
Type of Scan - Single Transponder
Frequency - xxx
Inversion - Auto
Symb Rate - 06952
Modulation - 64-QAM
FEC - Auto
Network Scan - Yes
Clear Before Scan - No
Only Free Scan - No

Frequency is first 3 digits of local "5-digit" frequency

When press "OK" it says ;

DVB-C QAM64 415000 / 6952 / AUTO

Returns no services found.

use whats here but make the frequency 642 or 642750 if the option avalible
might work

[mercenary]

no luck, its wierd my tuner only picks up via bruteforce and i cant do it. every now and then on certain images it allows me to use a cables.xml, but i want to use PLi

[mercenary]

its now working, i dunno how but im happy,

PLi Image

scanned 401 channels

thanx to everyone on the board
