    problems with chs on 101w

    What are good receivers to watch these with? I have scanned them in a few times but never watched them long enough to experience the issue.

    where to find channel with working epg

    I forget where but I know there was recently a channel that had a working epg. I am trying to test recording on a couple of receivers. Was it france24 or something? The ones on 97w are gone I think.

    Inexpensive HD FTA receivers from Far East on e-bay

    I tested a similar receiver last year and it has the msd-7816 configuration. Similar menu screens and the performance was similar to the openbox s9 or s10.

    I just jumped into FTA. Digiwave (HD-9003PVR)

    mrpeter are you still using this receiver? Do you have any screenshots of the menus on it? I think I have a similar receiver. I made a satellite list for mine. The motor controls don't really work. Were you able to find new firmware?

    Openbox X5 receiver

    The 7/24 firmware has been very stable for me. The iptv functions have been working well along with the satellite functions.

    Openbox X5?

    I have been running the X5 receiver for several months now. It is pretty fast for blind scanning and fairly sensitive. Not the best tuner but far from the worst. The 7/24 firmware has been pretty stable for me. The iptv works well on it. I think for the money it is worth it even if you don't...

    Openbox X5 receiver

    I was able to recover my X5 receiver by using a high quality CF card with a cf card reader and a certain version of the firmware.

    Contest: What would you do... 4:2:2?

    Seriously, most of the posts in this thread should be broken off into another thread. (my post included) There should only be contest entries and discussions of the prizes and entries not politics and drama.

    Openbox X5 receiver

    This box has some great internet functions for the price. The FTA performance is OK. The blind scan is very fast but not the best. It doesn't seem to get 16apsk or very low symbol rate (under 2000) channels. If there was a way to refine some of the fta functions this box would be much better. I...

    Amiko Alien2 Reviews?

    I have a Golden Media Triplex which I hear is very similar. It is probably my favorite receiver overall. The channel menus are the most user friendly I have used. I also recently got the android app which turns my phone into a remote control. Works great.

    TheCOOLTV Gone from 97W?

    Thats a bummer. It kind of reminded me of MTV or VH1 back when they mostly played videos.

    Ya it fixed mine too. I ordered one on Ebay a month or so ago and soldered it in and the box has not had a hiccup since!

    Golden Media Spark Triplex receiver

    Well I picked one of these receivers up and its pretty nice. Similar to the Amiko Alien 2 with the Spark operating system. A few features that I like are WebTV, the Spark Portal, and Webserver TV. WebTV allows you to watch live internet streams by entering the URL into the menu. I have found...

    Openbox X5 receiver

    scobuy has them for about 80 shipped but there are several other names for this receiver. It seems that many are cloning it or coming up with their own version with the same hardware. The specs are impressive.

    Openbox S10 radio channel edit firmware

    I am looking for some better firmware for my S10. I found S12 firmware that got rid of freezing channels on 83w. Has anyone used newer firmware for this that allows you to edit radio channels? This firmware I have: 11-12-10 also lets me record 2 channels in transponder while watching the 3rd. I...

    Receiver Blind scan speed

    So does that mean that my Eagle Aspens will only scan from 3700-4200? That is a drag. I will probably put my DMX242 on the 10 footer tomorrow and do a scan test of 91w.

    Receiver Blind scan speed

    Brian are standard and wideband LNB actual settings on a receiver? I am not sure what a wideband LNB is. I have a DMX741 on my 7.5 and a Eagle Aspen Bandstacked on my 10' dish.
