Trouble with MPEG4 channels

**Jimbo** · 11-22-2007 08:23 PM

Anyone having trouble with the MPEG 4 channels ?
Right now, I get NONE, SS for 103(b) show:
95 0 95 0 95 0 94 0
95 89 95 92 96 95 na na
98 na na na na 97 na na

I cannot get the NFL Network , Sci Fi , Smithsonian, AE ect.

Why am I getting the 0's and I am presuming these are the locations of these channels on the 0's I have.
Earlier in the day they worked fine, I have noticed this happening every so often , but usually around midnight and it only last for a few minutes then it comes back and everything is fine.

This time it's not coming back.
I just replaced the # 1 tuner BBC and that did NOT help.

edit : This started around 7:50 tonight and NOW it just came back in and all are working fine....

Any thoughts on what may be going on ?

Wonder if this is the black screen problem?

Not sure, I'm confused because it will go out and come back shortly after and I cannot get it to duplicate the problem so having a tech come out would do no good.

Every transponder on 103 is NA. Is that correct?

i just checked both tuners on 103(b) and i pegged 90's already across the transponders. maybe, its just you jimbo?

Could be , I guess, but when it does work , which is most of the time, my SS on the HD channels is 90-100 on ALL of them.

I just started having the same problem as the original post. All of my HD channels are out. message says "searching for signal on satellite In (771)
I tried re-setting the receiver.... nothing. I checked 103b and it shows no signal. I watched tv around noon today and all was good. Now nothing... ANy help would be appreciated.

Thank you Greg,
Nothing personal, but I'm glad your having problems, I now kniow it's not just me.
When this origianlly started happening to me it was a few weeks ago and approx midnight, so I wrote it off as possibly D* tweaking things at that time.
I am also doing the "CE's" I wrote it up to being a CE issue as well, which it may have been, the last CE was not that good for MY rec. hopefully this one today will correct those problems.

Are you doing the "CE's" ?

We're not doing the CEs and now we're having the same problem. Can't get HistHD or our distant network HDNBC. The 382 NBC comes in fine. Last night HD Theater was out.
