    Amiko Mini HD Combo Tutorial
    This is a guide on how to set up the amiko mini combo box

    I am assuming you already know we need a live VM feed in order
    to use the cable side and a sat dish for the sat side.

    First you will need an F to Ariel connector



    and a splitter if you only have a single cable coming into the house.

    Connect up the box, usual manner, hdmi, ethernet, ect.

    For cable screw the F to Ariel connector onto your VM feed and push into the RF in, sat feed into LNB in.

    Download the firmware,

    Unzip it, put it on a USB stick, put the stick in the box.

    On your Remote

    Menu - System - Upgrade by USB



    Flash the firmware, Upgrade Mode is ALL SW + Bootloader (Right button to scroll through)



    Next scan for channels

    Menu - Installation - Satellite Installation

    Right button to pick up Astra 28.2, either Green Button TP Scan or White Button Blind Scan will do



    Menu - Installation - Cable Installation

    Insert the first 4 digits of your net id into the frequency, so 50268 would become 502.6

    Insert your symbol rate

    flick through the QAM settings (Right button) until you get a green and yellow signal
    across the bottom of the screen, either Green Button Scan or White Button Blind Scan will do

                      I'm trying to enter the details of an FTP server and HTTP site
                      But I want to be able to add the details from my pen drive like the way I do it with the hsdata.cfg file

                      Do you know the format I need or a sample one

                      Thanks
