    Openbox s9 Firmware

    To make it clear - my unit is cold outside. I discovered it has thermal problems because blowing air in the openings of the cover is extending significantly time between reboots or freezes. Also when I run the receiver 1-2 hours without cooling and ignoring all the problems it eventually locks...

    Openbox s9 Firmware

    I am using motorized dish with one switch. The switch is necessary to let me select linear and circular part of the LNBF. The dish is set up perfectly so I use only USALS. This setup works perfectly on my AZbox Elite. I just turned power off on both receivers and manually connected dish...

    Openbox s9 Firmware

    Jim, The freezing is not caused by signal degradation. I am using 1m dish and it works without problems with my AZbox Elite. The receiver is freezing and becomes inaccessible until I turn the power off or from time to time it reboots on its own. It happens only on the HD channels including...

    Openbox s9 Firmware

    I just got OpenBox S9. It is easy to use and overall nice receiver. The only problem not allowing me to use it is freezing on HD channels. I tried few versions of the firmware including firmware provided above and it is freezing on HD all the time. Good example of the channel causing...

    AMC 21 is a true fta option

    I am the avid PBS FTA viewer from Southern Ontario. Thanks for all the clarifications and advices. This is one of the reasons why it is valuable to be a member of the SatelliteGuys. PBS is the only station claiming to function based on public support and broadcasting many channels in the...

    AMC 21 is a true fta option

    For me the PBS HD/SD channels are really invaluable. I am spending about 75% of my TV time watching PBS HD feeds or PBS World, Create and Montana. It would be fantastic if as SatelliteGuys community we can somehow show special appreciation to the PBS station and let them know how popular...

    Second Tuner for AZBox

    I am not sure if you can use two DVB-S2 tuners in one box. Better make sure if it is supported by current software. On one of European not English forums was a conclusion - only one DVB tuner can be present in the system (different tuner types can be mixed). I was disappointed, and I was...

    AzBox Elite and 12V switch

    Thank you for response. I will backup satellite and channel info, upgrade firmware to your version of firmware, and try it again. With the 0.9.2371 firmware in my box the output voltage is always 0V. I was not upgrading to newer version of firmware because 2371 firmware - channel editor...

    AzBox Elite and 12V switch

    I am attempting to use 12V switch with AzBox Elite receiver. I am disappointed because 12V output does not provide the voltage necessary for the switch operation. The 12V output is not providing any voltage regardless of the antenna setup. Is it my hardware malfunctioning or is it software...

    12V switch

    Thanks for response. I just got AZbox HD Elite and it is my first receiver with 12V output and 12V option in the dish menu. When I modify my setup I am going to use the switch as A/B switch to select remote motorized dish or nearby stationary dish farm. I was not sure if the 12V switch I...
