    No Channels on my Dreambox clone, Help!

    Alrite guys.

    I've flashed my box with the latest Pli image but when i scan i get no channels whatsoever - was hoping to get FTA ones for now.

    My box is a Openmedia 500 c/s and the switch is set to Sat

    Any ideas?

      Reflash it and put Sgtflipflops Enigma 1 bouquets on it.
      Personally i like Pli for the Dreambox 500s.

                    Bump!

                    I went out and bought a cheap but working official Sky+ box and connected it up and then i get this



                    It must be a Dish/LNB or possibly the coaxial cable which had been cut and left hanging for a year or two is the problem.

                        It would help to know how you got it sorted and bring a conclusion to the thread.

                              Oops! forgot to mention that duh!!

                              Elric is correct, replaced the cable with some good quality type and that solved it.
