Let me know next time you have one to toss.. I'm only an hour or so away..

OK I've verified that this the problem with this stream is the missing Access Unit Delimiter NAL units. I injected a NAL Access Unit Delimiter (00 00 00 01 09 10) before the Supplemental Enhancement Information NAL unit on that stream, shifted the PES header back 6 bytes and low and behold...

Just stumbled across this thread, but I am 99.9% sure that the reason the PBS "TELARITY ENCODED" transponder won't record for you is the AZBox is expecting an Access Unit Delimiter NAL unit in the H264 data. I have been troubleshooting this mux for a while now and they are missing from the h264...

My question doesn't concern visibility to the arc. I have a 1m dish in nearly the same spot. It was placed using a compass and an inclinometer to find the best spot in my yard. Sadly there is NO spot that I can get anything east of 60W or so.. I know my location satellite visibility wise is a...

Hey guys.. Been involved in FTA for a good long while now.. Lurked from time to time, but only recently decided to join.. Think I started with FTA sometime in 2002 (Might be 2003 can't recall).. I got a 90cm dish from Sadoun w/ a SG2100 motor and a Fortec Lifetime.. (Maybe that will help you...

Oh duh.. Helps to read.. :)

Are you looking at the right sat? I am watching it now in 125W (Galaxy12) 12104 V 4340 Pretty sure that's what "The List" says as well

The transponder those channels are on are QPSK not 8PSK (So if QPSK is an option use that) The -3/4 Should be the FEC (Forward Error Correction) for that transponder. Frequency: 11734 Polarity: H Symbol Rate: 4400 The Numbers after the channels are the PIDs for the Video/Audio TuffTV -...

Here is a better diagram that is to scale if this helps any. I re-measured everything including the shed & fence height and eave overhang.. My angles were off a little bit before. I am fairly certain that the actuator won't be a problem given there is 20 inches under the eave. I am thinking I...

I am confused. Is part of the dish blocked? If you look at the diagram that I drew putting a mount pole 6 feet from the structure would be within an inch or two of the fence. Can you post any photos or reference me to some?

Yes i'm shooting under a large (30-40 foot) white pine from that location. I can't go up for numerous reasons. I can't afford to take any branches off the white pine as the other side gets hacked away every few years by the power company so it really needs those limbs for survival. I...

Interesting reading about your Fortec 90cm dish.. Your mounting bracket assembly doesn't look like mine, and I wonder if your instructions were for my style of mounting bracket (see attached photo). When did you get yours? I really have no idea when I got mine now but I think it was sometime...

The magnetic offset is between 8 and 9 degrees.. Can't recall off the top of my head but my property line (and shed/house) are pretty much true.. Maybe off by a degree or so.. When I remounted my 90cm dish the other day the motor assembly ended up being maybe 1 degree or so out of perpendicular...

Yes the better the FEC the more bits it takes up total of the downlink.. FEC has to do with how many bits are used for data redundancy (I.E. they can be corrected when received incorrectly the first time) vs. how many bits are used for the content (video/audio).. More bits for FEC allows for...

How do I measure the focal length distance? I know moving the LNB in or out didn't seem to make any differences when aiming, but now I am curious.. Fortec Star Satellites Fortec Star's website says "focus length" is 510mm ~= 20.1 inches.. I just very roughly measured from the end of the LNB...
