    skybox f5s problem

    hi people
    had loads of the f5 boxes just got 2 of the f5s
    is there no channel list of this yet
    when i click on favourites its giving me the channels eg entainment but under the heading of JSC
    sports is under sky italia
    must be a easier way of dumping the favourite list on with the correct names
    ive tried to download the one posted on here but the rar is coming up unexpected end of archive
    can anyone dump there image and channel list
    thx

      you will need to rename the favs yourself, only way you can get one with the favs already done is if you took a full system dump from one box with all favs named and placed it onto a different box. you only need to rename the favs once then update the same (ie aj's) channel list whenever you need to, the favs will stay the same, but if you choose a different channel list made by someone else there favs may be in a different order so you would have to rename again.. if that makes sense
      If it isn't broke, don't try fixin it..!!!

        will try AJ's or Sattv5's

          I think (but don't quote me on this) that both AJs and Sattv5's list, the favourites should should be named as they indicate because I'm sure sattv5 sorted the problem.

              The way to get The favourites under the correct headings is to load the default Database:

              On the remote select Menu > Factory Settings > Select Yes > Then Press Blue (Dont press anything other than blue)
              The screen will flash black for a second and you will be back at the menu. If you check your favourites now they should all be in the correct order

                  Add the channel list first. Make sure your presents are safely stored then follow the tut. Just in case you cant find it Factory Settings is in the Tools Menu.

                  One rebooted you will have all the favourites named and the channel names correct.

                      Not my idea either, to many bricked F5 and F5s. It has been said that the F3 had ceased production but they are thankfully appearing again in China.
