skybox m3 - channell browsing...odd

[mikeadams1985]

Wonder if any one can help me here.


just bought a skybox m3 and set it all up. Now, for example if i am on music channell scuzz (in the list the next channell is vintage tv)
but if im on the channell scuzz and click next channell its a diffrent channell all together.

is there a way to have it so when im on a music channell and press next channell its another music channell (untill at end of list)
hope this makes sense

You're seeing your channels from favourites list, the channels are probably not using the same numbering as Sky, when you skip up or down a channel you're not actually going up and down in the favourites list but instead going up and down in the whole channel list... When people scan the satellite the channels are not found and then put in same numbering order as Sky automatically.. You'll need to find a channel list that has had the channels arranged the same as Sky's channel numbers... Most channel lists people make are just with the Favourites in a similar order to Sky, the numbering is usually left the same as it was when they scanned the satellite, it takes some time to put them all in Skys number order...

use the up and down buttons that are round the OK button, it will then change channels in the order you are expecting. When i first got mine i was using the Program up and down buttons with the same problem as you are getting, after 3 or 4 days of trying settings etc trying to fix it the wife suddenly says " use those other buttons " !!
