Zgemma 2s OpenAtv 5.2 Backup Image with Improved $ky Skin

[martin035]

is this the same box as zgemma star s2?

Yes, most forum references to the Zgemma 2s drop the 'star' part from the name and it's a 2s not a s2, hope that helps.

It's successor is official known as a Zgemma star H2S

If I leave my box switched on all night I always get an error message:

AutoBouqetsMaker
Timeout For Tuner Lock

Anyone know what this is?

Also, I don't have channel 5 for some reason. I rescanned my channels and the only difference it made was to remove the name of the channel. I still don't receive anything. Not sure if this is anything to do with this image, I've never had a zgemma before so still learning.

Ok, make sure that both your satellite feed cables are attached to the correct ports on the Zgemma, see picture below;

It might be worth you re-downloading (post #1) and installing the backup image again as I've just updated it, once you've done this do:

Menu-setup-service searching- ABM-Start Scan
Menu-Setup-Crossepg-Download Now and let the epg update

Thanks. I'll try reinstalling the backup image again.

Not sure if this matters but I only have one feed cable attached to Tuner A.

That matters big time and is the source of all your problems as the image expects twin feeds, but this is easy to fix, first ensure you only connect to the tuner A port on the back of the box then;

menu-system-service searching-tuner configuration and select 'Tuner B' scroll with the right arrow key to 'Not Config' save and exit.

ABM and Crossepg will run without problems then, but manually test them by carrying out the instructions in post#81

Aha! Cheers Martin I'll do that.

Is there a way I can then update to your latest image without losing my current/fixed setup?

You can do an over the air update (you might get a warning, due to elapsed time between updates but it is safe to update) this will update your system. The only thing it won't update is Slky HD skin to V3, if you wish to update this you will have to search for the skin.ipk and install manually.

Thanks Martin. ABM and EPG are sorted now. I'll do an OTA update in a bit, I've done a couple since I got the box and first flashed it with your image. With regards the skin, how do I do a manual search? Do you mean via the box or the web?

Via the web, can't link to it as it's hosted on a similar content forum (forum rules)

Thanks, all installed and updated now.

One thing I've just noticed though, and I need to ensure I don't break the rules here, is that now the channels are all ordered with the HD versions at the top, which I don't think they were previously. This can be problematic if you have to scroll down for the SD version because the HD won't work, iykwim.

Menu-setup-service searching-ABM-Providers to the following;
? Sky UK Area- Scroll right to get ‘your area’ custom ie mine’s Scottish East Custom this will replace all none working HD channels with their working SD conterparts
? Menu-setup-service searching- ABM-Start Scan, this will add all the relevant channels for your area

Thanks Martin. All sorted bar channel 5. Is there no SD equivalent?
