Channel Scanning Help

[EAMO 2]

Try using flashfxp you get the option to chmod/attributes in that.

Try via Rem. control, go to var/bin, hi lite file (e.g.Mgcam)
Hit 1 on REM; scroll 3 lines & OK to green

I am tempted to go back to the Andromeda image, as not getting any joy here at all!

as stated above you can use tuxbox commander but in the com 11 image the files need to be in the /var/bin/emu.....see below

tc1.jpg

highlight the cam you want to edit and press 1 for the rights

tc3.jpg

highlight the 1 you want to change and press ok to get green

TC2.jpg

3 greens, ok, save and exit

cheers

[tattiemasher]

All 3 files are green, no change.

All 3 files are green, no change.

Silly question. But did you save on exit-if you did I would get all the main details/files etc. And start over it would be quicker

[tattiemasher]

Yeah I did save the changes, turned it off and on, re-checked they were green, but nothing.

Never tried another image, but have worked a lot with commando 11. Try the Commando 11 the end image. Go to a blank screen and press the blue button twice, select your location and save. Next press dbox button, services, scan for services. Have your setting set at :

Save settings now
Scan for services (tv/radio/all)
Bouquet (update/erase all// make new vm set/leav current)
Cable provider (CableUK/DVB-C Ireland/DVB-T Ireland)
Scan Mode (Fast Scan/UK Brutforce)
Network ID
Frequency
Symbol rate (6952/6887)
Auto scan (off/on)
Start scan

Remember to click save before you start the scan. The network id and frequency should be allocated automatically. The symbol rate may be automatically selected, otherwise just try both. Once complete you should get FTA channels.

If this doesnt work then you may want to check to see that the cable works. I had a lot of trouble because VM didnt connect up a cable correctly at a connection point in my house. So test it if this fails.

Thanks for the advice, though I actually get the FTA channels. The TV box in the front room works, and the broadband in this room works, not to mention the FTA channels are perfect.

Tried the scan again on your advice just now in any case, but no difference afterwards!

what cam r u using evocamd? if it's the uncompressed 1 (250kb) it didn't work for me, mgcamd worked or the compressed evo (130kb)

I think fate has just made things worse...power went out for a second while the box was flashing another image...box won't even try to boot now! I don't have a null modem cable just now, am I buggered until I do?

ifa works with network cable alone, well it always has for me

[Dreamer]

poor tattiemasher

I recomend you get yourself a rabbits foot. a lucky charm, a four leaf clover and a null modem cable. Your not having a lot of luck but don't get downheartened you will get there in the end.

Or you could follow metmans suggestion

[tattiemasher]

So even an absolute bog-standard boot from the program will work with normal network cable?

This thread could get global recognition, it's going on longer than the
Iraq war. I can see the headlines; BATTLE OF D-BOX.
When the Yanks saw no end to Japanese war they NUKED 'em.
We need a similiar approach here to keep the body-bag count down.
Use Hallenberg IFA to flash (COMM 11) image
FTP files to correct folders & make sure they are correct.
Make sure you have up to date KEYS
Commando will give scan for your area, it won't find any chls. thats OK
because it will have your Prov.ID & SYM.rate on service scan. Go to
Service & start search (quick-scan)
I will check back at 12.30 You have to nail this TODAY
Just take your time, You WILL get there

[tattiemasher]

I am starting the process, but so far nothing much is happening on IFA...waiting for dbox start after 5 minutes. DBOX is on, but the front display is just garbled letters/numbers, and nothing else.
