its shameful this has not been addressed yet, these ppl need sorting kv team, shame on you.

[faflefevre]

got to agree theres something not right in this area (tamworth litchfield stafford) regarding the kv.
i no of 3 kv users in litchfield all having the same issue strangley one of them bought a phoenix and had no problems with it..
hopefully someone from this area will confirm if they have a working 780

Wonder if one of the older firmwares would get them back then upgrade to decode ?.
Or if 850firmware would work for a channel search ..clutching at straws a bit.
Its a shame because with the channels before I deleted them..it was working ok on some

[faflefevre]

maybe worth pressing menu user preference then go into sat/tp edit.
should list former providers ntl c&w tw chorus etc is there any data in the options to the right of this transponder symbol rate qam etc

[cactikid]

providers box says 15 and is ntl ,anybody with an 850 in that area can they note the first frequency box finds channels on and stick them on a post.

[monkeyb0yuk]

The 8tps are all ntl .. 6887...qam64- these were the original working ones.
I tried creating an extra with 6952 and another with 6887 and qam 256
But still finding nothing.
Might keep trting to add some tps this way. Im wondering if this qam has gone to 256.

[faflefevre]

the fta channels have moved to 256 at least in the teeside area they have your box will find 8 tps without the signal connected to the box dont no why but it does
theres hardly any now using a qam rate of 64

[monkeyb0yuk]

Its a good point. I might replicate all 8 with 256 and see if it finds any

[faflefevre]

you should have a mixture of former providers ie some data from each provider if that makes any senseour area is a former ntl area but most channels are now using the tw data.
when scanning a phoenix in our area we select tw and its never been a former tw area

[monkeyb0yuk]

Went into tivo settings and tried some of them frequencies 610.250. 256qam. Still no good. And all 8original tps with 256. No good
The tivo is confirming 256 as well.
Ill try tw settings. Years ago I always thought the sr was 6952 at least on the eurovox.
My memory is sketchy thou.
Thanks for help thou bud...ill keep trying and if I even get fta channels..that will be a breakthrough.

[faflefevre]

ok m8 on the older eurovox starview if you were in a tw area you selected the symbol rate of 6.952 and all your channels were on that rate if you were a former ntl area you selected symbol rate 6.887 and all your channels were there. and the qam rate was 64 only..
however this is changing now as hd channels need compressing so the higher symbol rate works better when dealing with more content....and these changes are having a big effect on the kv box as the tuner now needs to be more sensitive..
its these same changes that finnished the a790t and these changes required the mod on the 850...
i cannot help but think maybe the 780 tuner isnt upto the job or borderline in your area but might be wrong and maybe shouldnt post it without confirmation but there does seem to be a problem in your area regarding the 780 and recent changes i do no a channel data file from one kv in your area should work on your box if you do a box to box transer

[monkeyb0yuk]

Not good but unfortunately sounds more than plausible. I can only hope there can be a fix or someone comes through with a favour and lets me box to box thier channels.
Or sell it to someone in a working area and invest the money in an upgrade. But I dont want to rip someone off if it becomes national.
Ill wait a few weeks and see what happens.
Thanks again.
