Hello, If anyone happens to have a Linkbox 500i, can you advise whether it supports Closed Captioning? Thank you. :)

Thanks Brian. Let me tell you a quick story about his customer service. I purchased an ASC1 from him earlier this year. When I received it, it did not output any voltage to the actuator. I called him and explained the problem. He immediately offered to come to my house to take a look at it...

Ok, so from y'all's responses, it looks like that if you manually enter the transponder information for a "Signal Finder" search, the search will automatically include DVB-S2X channels. The reason that I wasn't able to scan in the game last night may be that I didn't have enough signal...

Hi Brian, Here is the exchange between myself and a member on another forum: _________________ Quote: Originally Posted by Electrosat I have a good lock on this, but it will not scan in on my Edision OS mio. Is this the UCLA game? "121 W 3800 H 34285 is a ACM signal. It was DVB-S2X 32...

The main tuner for the Edision OS mio 4K s listed as including DVB-S2X with ACM. In OpenVix, when I do a "Signal Finder" scan by entering my own user defined transponder information, the choice for "System" is either DVB-S2 or DVB-S, with DVB-S2X not being an option. Likewise, the TNAP image...

Sure, it's pretty simple. I I loaded the OpenVix image in the second slot by flashing it from the original TNAP image. Then go find the IPTV streaming plugin (.ipk file) and download it. Next, FTP the plugin over to your temp folder var/volatile/tmp. Then: Menu > setup > VIX > pkg install...

Sorry, didn't mean to violate the forum rules. Just trying to be helpful. :usa2

Ok, thanks again. If anyone has an image and plug-in combination that worked for IPTV to experiment with, I would like to try it.

Thanks Brian, yes I'm interested in IPTV for the unit as a matter of experimentation and to explore its possibilities. I have Rokus, etc. What would be cool is an integrated EPG that covered sats, IPTV and OTA I have read that the current EPG is more for Europe. I guess we will see what...

I'm loving the Edison OS mio, but I have a newbie question. On the spec sheet for the Edison OS mio it lists "Free Internet Streaming TV and Radio". Does this mean that the OS mio can act like a Roku? If so, how is this implemented on the TNAP image that is preloaded on the unit? Is there a...

I did absolutely nothing to my 920. No procedures, not anything. It works exactly like it did a six months ago. I still have all of the same satellites showing up that I had before. The only subscription I have (and have had ) for some time is the W-5 pick 10. I never moved to G-1 to get the...

A little off-topic, but what I want is a DBS HD c/ku receiver that will directly control both a big c-band dish including skew, polarity, etc. and a small ku dish with a lnbf, without having to use a V-Box. Then, I won't need to use my 920 as a dish mover (I can live without the free DCII...

I had the same question as OP. I'm thinking about using 7 conductor 18 gauge sprinkler wire and running two wires in parallel for each motor lead and two wires for the sensor. That still leaves me with one wire for a "drain" to ground on the motor side and leave unconnected at the receiver end.

Wow, I'm really interested in this solution! If you use the spacers (stand-offs) between the KU and the C-band, what about using weather-proof tape to wrap around the gap? I know that Home Depot sells these spacers in the drawers over in the Hardware Department. Maybe not elegant, but it...

Can anyone comment on the increase in usable reception on this 1.8m dish versus a 1.2m dish for C-Band? Specifically, I currently get a lot of c-band channels on my 1.2m, but I have a very hard time getting feeds like the ESPN C-band college football feeds. If I would be able to get at least...
