    Help with Diseqc Settings in Mio+4k

    that GeoSatPro switch is indeed a 1.1 switch. I have MIO4k and MIO+, ASC-1 a 1.1 GSP switch, and a 1.0 switch connected to port 1 of the 1.1 switch. I set the ports accordingly in the satellite setup, and set the order to 1.1, 1.0, tone. I also tried it with the 1.0 switch connected to other...

    Help with Diseqc Settings in Mio+4k

    ...to the other side of my yard. Added a 4 port LNBF. Added Diseqc 1.0 4 port switches. All is working great with my 2 Mio+ receivers and an Amiko SE. I use a 3rd Mio+ to control my C band dish(ASC 1 also). Here's my problem. This Mio is set to Diseqc 1.2 to send signals to move the C band...

    AMIKO Amiko

    Thanks for your response. For openers, the Amiko only allows one satellite to be downloaded. It has many other defects... and I am tired of explaining them to Amiko and the supplier. I asked Amiko for a manual for the 4k UHD and they sent me a manual of one of their their other models which did...

    Amiko 4K-Problems

    Received the Amiko 4K receiver on March 30, 2023. Installed on April 9, 2023 in place of my existing Amiko Mini HD SE, which is working fine. Had nothing but problems trying to load transponder and the unit would freeze and not accept comands from the remote, had to unplug several time and...

    AMIKO Amiko

    I only own the older Amiko Mini HD SE so have no knowledge about the 4K UHD model but what is happening with it specifically? Maybe someone here can figure out the problem.

    AMIKO amiko viper 4k combo help for a newbie please

    I had an Amiko Mini HD SE quite a few years ago. Using the it's DLNA function I figured out how to push files to the receiver (not from it) using Linux, GUPnP AV Control Point and rygel. Also, another member here wrote a program called Sat2IP that could play streams of your channels from the...

    Looking for a good magnifying glass with light for working with electronics

    Thanks for the excellent advice. Yes, got 3 additional smaller tips with the heat gun. I don't plan on re-balling BGA chips any time soon! I'm getting some solder 63/37 tin/lead 0.015". Should be small enough. I will practice a LOT with various devices.Things that still work or partially work...

    AMIKO Issue with renaming channels on the Amiko mini 4K

    I'm pretty sure my Amiko Mini HD SE (the model before the RE, HD265, etc) did this years ago as I remember a naming issue like that. It was kind of a pain but the receiver itself was rock solid so it never really bothered me. Must be a bug that Amiko has never addressed or they are unaware it...

    RTPi - No Signal

    That's understandable, especially when there are so many variables involved. I just pulled my old Amiko Mini HD SE out of storage and tested the voltage on the coax port. I get about 14VDC or 18VDC on the coax port with my meter depending on whether the polarity setting is horizontal or...

    Anyone having problem with Galaxy 3C?

    I think the Amiko Mini is out of the choices because it doesn't have any RF input/output. I know its a HD receiver with HDMI output, but my Drake reciever is like 15-20 feets away from my TV and I don't think running a HDMI cable that long would be advisable.

    AMIKO Amiko Mini HD SE organizing satellite transponders

    New to the device, I have been battling this all day.... let's see if I can adequately describe my problems: I am guessing when you do the transponder scan on a satellite, you want to be doing it from the Installation page, under satellite Installation. What I don't understand is why, when...

    AMIKO Amike Mini HD SE- How do you guys catalog your satellites & TP's

    I'm BAAAAAAAACK.... just under a new name (I forgot I was Bluebeard in another time).... Several years ago I took everything apart, and now (after I forgot how to do everything) I wanted to set it up again.... So same question.... but let me try to rephrase: I think I'd like to create groups...

    Titanium Satellite Setting up old ASC1

    I decommissioned my whole C Band satellite system a few years ago, and now I want to set it up again. I hooked up the ASC1 again to my ribbon cable and my Amiko Mini HD SE and turned it on and tried to move it to another satellite, but there is no evidence that the ASC1 is moving the dish. How...

    Used to have C/Ku setup and want to turn it back on again....

    If you have individual coax cables coming in for ku and c then I'm guessing you had a diseqc switch at one point to allow your receiver to select between the two. A lot has changed up there since 2014-2015 so you will probably need to do quite a bit of blind scanning to get up to date. ;)

    Used to have C/Ku setup and want to turn it back on again....

    Years ago I used to have a C Band set up and one day decided to shelve it and maybe get back into it again. Well, now 7 years later I want to turn it on again, but I don't remember how to hook everything up. I have a 10' horizon to horizon steel dish, a Titanium ASC1 and a Amiko Mini HD SE set...

    OTHER GTmedia V7Plus radio channels on 103w

    Some receivers let you enter channels manually. My Amiko Mini HD SE was one. Others require an editor to enter them. Someone else just asked about them tonight. That thread is here... :) https://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/muzak-channels-on-amc-1-ku.389975/

    Newbie Dish Alignment help

    Got my Amiko Mini HD SE much longer ago than two years. ;) With most connections being HDMI I guess it is understandable that they cut costs in that way. :)

    Newbie Dish Alignment help

    I have an Amiko Mini HD SE here. Breakout cable that works with it has video with stereo audio and four sections on the 1/8" plug. Assuming that Amiko uses the same pinouts on the breakout cable for all their receivers. I will check the cable I have to see which (yellow video, white audio and...

    Manual channel entry on an Amiko Mini HD265.

    If it is anything like my Amiko Mini HD SE there was a function (I believe under the transponder menu) called User Channel where you could manually create a channel if you knew the right settings.

    ABC 99w Network Feeds Transitioned to DVBS2 HEVC 4:2:2

    Thanks guys, I kinda thought that was the case but was hoping otherwise. :rolleyes:

    ABC 99w Network Feeds Transitioned to DVBS2 HEVC 4:2:2

    You will not be able to do it with that receiver. If you have the Amiko Mini HD265 you could, but not that one. Not only is this signal now 10-bit color (4:2:2). It also uses HEVC or H.265 compression. The Mini SE is only H.264.
