I tried to add the new channel list last night but my f3 box won't pick up the files on the usb stick. I even tried a different usb but when I try to 'select and upgrade' the file it only gives me the options of the files I backed up (dumped) onto the previous stick even though the old stick isn't even in the machine. I even tried turning the box off at the back and leaving it overnight but still the same this morning. I ended up doing a blind scan and now have my channels all over the place but at least I can watch a few hours of the ashes before I go to work. May do a factory reset tonight and start again. Don't have these problems with my TM5402 in the bedroom.

Not sure if there's a problem with my mates box or the channel list. I deleted the old list and burned the new list. All the channels are there but in different groups. Has anyone else had this problem or have an idea why this has happened. Like having News channels in the Sports bouquet. Andy

While I had half an hour to spare I had a look at AJ's latest list and removed the dead channels and added some missing ones amongst other things.

Hopefully AJ wont mind that I've done this.

Hi, Had our F5 for a few weeks but there seems to be a few channel missing. I'm just about to load the list on here, I'm a bit scared as my hubby won't be happy if I lose everything . Backed up the original list to my PC and copied AJ's file to the root of my USB and will follow the instructions to upload. Fingers crossed it will work. If I break it, I hope someone will be kind enough to help me. Thanks to AJ for the list.

Don't want to say yay I've done it until I get the seal of approval from my other half in the morning, but feeling pretty relieved as I think it all went OK

Many thanks for helping AJ out sattv5!!!

Do you think it would be possible to put the SD sports channles in the list as well? reason being if sly start again changing frequences and that we can have the SD sports to fall back on ?

I'm not sure if it's just me or has the favourites gone from General, Sport, Movies etc to Fav Group 1, Fav Group 2, Fav Group 3 with these latest channel lists?

[andy91]

Ive put this list on two boxes recently with different results.
The first box i put it on it put channels into diffrent catorgaries but the other box it put it into fav1 fav2 etc so im guessing its a firmware problem on the box if that helps.

Has SS1 changed freq also SS2? both of those channels dont work in HD for me anymore yet SS3 and 4 does and they all work okay on SD...I wanna add them back in manually instead of channel list as I like the current list I have, how would u go about doing this with no hassle..?

[MonsterSquad]

Guys like andy91 says.....is there anyway of a manual scan for single channels. Cheers

Sky sports 2 hd is now called sky sports ashes hd temporarily and it looks like the frequency changed on the 5th of july... sky sports 4 hd however has not changed frequency since january by the looks of things so i,m not sure why thats not working on the list..you can get the frequencys from kingofsat and i would imagine you can edit the channels settings via the remote but i have not looked at that on this type of boxes..i,m also looking for the software used to edit the channel list itself if anyone can point me in the right direction..

Cheers
