    Problem with most of the Movies Channels

    Hi guys!

    I?ve got a list of channels that I downloaded from here and the last version of it, the one sorted as the Sky numbers. On Sunday when we were watching a film, I lost signal, I thought it was some kind of bird over my dish or something, I had a look into it and everything was cool, just the movies channel (SD and HD).

    Does anyone know if they?ve changed frequencies?

    Cheers!

    would help if you said what box and how your getting your channels, as if of a server they may of gone down

    lost signal is not a norm, if it said scrambled, thats the problem

      Sorry for not explaining myself properly.
      It says "No Signal", and am using an Openbox s10. The rest of channels work great with good signal and quality.
      The transponder is 12168/V/29500.
      The signal intensity is 42% and quality 10%. That's for the movies channels I can't watch, but for example the 007 channel I can watch properly in other transponder though, that's why I thought the have changed the frequencies.
      I hope it all makes sense.
      Cheers!

          Hi again,
          I have tried the latest list of channels and still not working. It seems to be some kind of problem with the transponder. Nothing has changed with the installation of the dish or box though, and everything happened while I was watching a channel normally.
          Has anybody got a clue on how to sort it out?
          Cheers!

              Hi, the only settings I can see in the box for the LNB are, power and it is ON, if I set it off then I can't see any channel...

                Hi again,
                I checked and my LNB is set as 9750 10600. Tried to change it and nothing, signal the same and intensity as well.
                No idea what can be wrong...

                  Ok, that settings fine... So I guess all you can really do is to try a totally different channel list on your box.. Or scan for channels yourself..

                    Hi again guys,

                    I?ve tried everything you recommended and still haven?t got the "light". Am a bit stressed and really don't know how to sort it out, basically when it was working before and then all of a sudden it stop working. The transponders that aren't working are 12012 V 29500, 11836 H 27500... any new ideas? Will it be sorted if I change the LNB for a better/different/newer one?

                    Any help will be really appretiated!

                    Cheers!

                      I had NO Signal! and it was the wrong transponder settings. I manually changed them to 9750 10600 and the signal went from 0% to 80%.

                      Have you checked the line into the box and made sure its in the top and not the loop connection? Is the cable in and the F connector sound?

                      You should be getting a signal of at least 75% and a 90& intensity.

                      The 9750 10600 sounds right as thats what mines is working on.

                        Hi Frogger,

                        I don't know if I understand exactly what you mean. About the wires, everything in the right place and haven't changed anything since stopped working.

                        About 9759 10600, how can I change that and where?

                        Thanks!

                          I've sorted my issue out!

                          It was something wrong with the LNB! The HD movies channels are not strong though, but that's ok because of my dish and location...

                          Thanks everyone for your help!

                          Cheers
