Well well well, the death knell has been tolled :( We knew it was coming but we kept ducking-and-a-diving but they finally pulled the plug. Of course, I didn't know cos I didn't check Programming Center site, so when I got home yesterday, missus tells me the TV has gone off. We've a few boxes...

Tried to renew a couple of rcvrs just now, but "Add Services" is missing :(

Thanks for the explanation - I'm not going crazy! All good with X4 got setup okay now. Thanks again!

hey waylew - thanks for the details - I read the link you sent me (for the 10th time!) and if I understand what I'm reading (????) - 1040 IS the EMM provider for the receiver from factory. I did a "soft conversion" to use HITS so did not do a EMM Provider Reset. I think that's why it still...

how wrong can you be ??? Under Options 6,7,7,8,1 the EMM is 4160 not 4096 - so I've NO idea what the heck that is on Diag A or how to read it!

Thanks! Found it, realised i was being a but dumb! The EMM provider number is split into 2 parts on Diag A like this" 1040 96" - read as 4096 Cheers!

Hi guys, I'm looking for the Provider ID for HITS on W5/AMC18 I checked my subbed DSR922 Diag A and it shows it as '1040' but reading elsewhere I'm lead to believe it is '4160' Can someone confirm/enlighten me please? Thanks!

Have you tried online streaming sources? (not sure if that's blasphemy around here :D ) Just a thought!

I found specs for the 3 different LNBs here: http://www.satcomresources.com/Norsat-8530I-C-Band-DRO-LNB http://www.satcomresources.com/Norsat-8225R-C-Band-DRO-LNB http://www.satcomresources.com/Norsat-8215-DRO-LNB The main obvious difference is frequency range - each have a different range -...

ouch :( Glad I'm not at that stage...yet! Confirmed the ID is good and the sub is still working. Ordered a bunch of 16v 10uF caps today.

Thanks for the tips and hints guys - will go back and check over everything again - hope it's not the battery !

I have a 4DTV unit subbed by Programming Center still using the X4 tile on c-band According to the instructions here (non-brick method): http://www.programming-center.net/csteps2.htm you need to tune to X4-216 - this comes up on mine as "Pgm-8 Style" - that might help ensure you're on the...

I had hoped it was that - but the another 410 on the same feed is fine. I've been searching and reading, there's a lot of references to a now defunct "Alan Judd" site - best I can tell I'm looking to replace all 16v 10uf caps. Cheers

Thanks will do

I have a couple of DSR410 units subbed to HITS on W5. All of a sudden 2 days ago one kept dropping the satellite lock, flashing red/green on the front panel. I've swapped cables between the 2 receivers but the problem persists on only one of them. Both polarities are affected. I'm presuming...
