Hi guys, quick question. What Android app do you use to stream 4:2:2 video from an Osmio4K (or other rcvr) to your TV? On my PC I can use VLC and that works OK. I'd like to stream from my Android phone or tablet to my TV. On the PC I go to the Mio's web page and can stream from there. I...

Hi guys, for the Edision OS Mio+ 4K would you please review how to use the different firmware slots? Is there any documentation on this subject? I would like to try the new TNAP 5 version. My overall goal is to not mess up anything. If I put version 5 in an open slot, will all my satellite...

Hi guys I'm naive in this area. Why can't our Linux based receivers decode and display 4:2:2 content like ABC and CBS feeds? I can watch them using VLC on my PC. Why can't this functionality be embedded into TNAP firmware? For that matter what does 4:2:2 represent? A CODEC? A modulation...

Hi all I would like to add the 135W C Band satellite to my existing Edision OS Mio+ 4K receiver. There is a menu entry called TS-Satellite Editor that I have never used. Before I messup something I wanted to ask here first. It wants to create an /etc/enigma/satellites.xml file I think. This...

Hi all, my C band system was working fine until a couple weeks ago, when I started seeing major interference on many C band satellites. I attributed this issue to the recent activation of 5G phone service. The problem appeared as pixelation on many satellites. Sometimes minor, and sometimes...

Is the Android Sat Guys app still supported? I get a license error when running it. I prefer to use it over the web page. Thanks! Al Rovner

Hi guys, I'm trying to stream ABC 4:2:2 feeds on G16 with no luck. Do you have any suggestions? My setup is as follows: Receiver: OS MIO+ 4K with TNAP 4 firmware Signal strength for ABC feeds on G16 = 11.6 dB I have tried all these devices with no luck, however all devices do stream 4:2:0...

Hi all, my Osmio 4K clock keeps going back to Jan 1, 1970. Does this receiver have an internal battery that needs to be replaced? I use NTP to set the correct time but it keeps reverting to 1970. (I was a freshman in high school on Jan 1, 1970....brings back memories...but that's another...

Hi all is something wrong with CTV on Anik F1? The audio is out of sync and the video is moving in slow motion. The signal is loud at 15 dB on my Edision mio+ 4k. Thanks for any info Rgds, Al Rovner Sent from my Pixel 3a using the SatelliteGuys app!

Hi all, in the Setup - Auto Backup menu, you can schedule a daily backup of your system. Apparently it doesn't use a USB stick, but backs up to the /media folder. The only way to see what happened is to telnet to the receiver's IP address, login as root, and cd to the /media directory. The...

Hi guys, question for you. I'm using Dreambox Edit to change the channel content on my Edision OS Mio+ 4K. I download the channel list, edit some items, and write it back to the box. Then my changes appear as expected next time I switch to various satellites. OK so far. I come back later...

Hi all what's your opinion about using a Sonotube for a C Band pole? Good idea or not? Thanks, Al, K7AR Sent from my Lenovo TB-8504F using the SatelliteGuys app!

Hi all I saw references to 65W Ku band in another post and discovered it's not listed in my existing list. I've never added a completely new satellite before. I think there is an XML file but don't know the location or format of the values. I'm running a VU+ Zero 4K with OpenPLi software...

How do I backup then restore my satellite list when upgrading from OpenPLi 6 to 7? I should know this but not sure which file to backup. Thanks, Al, k7ar Sent from my Lenovo TB-8504F using the SatelliteGuys app!

I currently run OpenPLi on the VU box. Can I test other OS distributions without overwriting OpenPLi by multibooting? Thanks, Al, K7AR Sent from my moto x4 using the SatelliteGuys app!

Hi all it's really easy to update the Open PLi version through the main menu, but what about updating Plugins? Specifically the Blind Scan plugin. I appreciate any pointers. Al, K7AR Sent from my moto x4 using the SatelliteGuys app!

Hi all, I have a VU+ Zero 4K and so far have been very satisfied with it. A few questions...... Why do I have to run circular polarity on Ku band? I have the standard Geosat 90 LNBF. Does blind scan work on Ku band? It produces odd results such as not seeing channels I have manually...

On my Mini HD SE rcvr, the Decades channel is stuck in stretched widescreen mode no matter how I set the aspect ratio in the menu. And the H&I channel bounces really quickly between 4:3 and 16:9 settings before settling in the 16:9 mode. Any idea what's going on? Does my Sharp TV share any...

I recently installed a Tek2000 C Band 8' solid dish, and thought the forum might benefit from a review. I'll divide my comments into separate categories. Cost I thought the cost was reasonable, $349 for the dish, and $130 for shipping from Toronto to Washington State. Ordering After placing...

Hi all I'm aligning a new C band dish, and saving positions into an ASC1. I've worked my way from 137W down to 97W and then had an issue with the A3. The A3 seems to boot normally (video looks ok) but after bootup I have a black screen. Any ideas? I probably shouldn't do a factory reset...

I've tried DTV Now on the Fire Stick and Roku 3. I can only move through the guide one channel at a time using the up or down arrows. I've tried some other key presses but cannot get the guide to scroll a page at a time. Am I missing something? Thanks, Alan Sent from my Nexus 5X using the...

Hi guys, I have an old KTI dish I'm trying to restore and get back on the air. The documentation is very limited and has really tiny diagrams of where to adjust elevation and declination offset/zenith. Please look at the attached photos and let me know if this is where to measure angles. The...

Hi all any C Band gurus in the Portland, OR area that can help me align a C band dish? It's installed, just needs to be aligned. It's an old KTI 10' dish. I'm not clear where to set or even measure the declination offset adjustment. Well I know where the bolt is, but the documentation isn't...

Hi all sometime back I downloaded an installation manual for a KTI dish but can't find the manual, my error. Would one of you please send a link to it? Thanks, Alan Sent from my Nexus 5X using the SatelliteGuys app!

Hi all I'm finally getting around to reassembling the old 10' KTI dish I bought last spring. The mesh panels have been refurbished and look good. I need a 24" arm and want to support dealers you recommend. I have seen messages here about general purpose actuators but is that what i want? I...
