mr3p that was a dead link. I ended up getting a refund from the seller.

There was a Montage VT6000 box that came out a while back. I used it for the 16apsk channels on 97w with pretty good performance. It's a dual tuner DVB-S2/DVB-T setup. The AC3 audio needs to be passed out of the coaxial port into a decoder. There is now an upgraded version of the same basic box...

I have a NA sat file for the skybox v6 which I believe uses the same processor so it may work. The V6 maxes out at 64 satellites.

I started a thread a while back about the Golden Media Triplex receiver which is very similar. At the time it was great a few years ago. However it is a bit dated imo. Many newer faster receivers can be had for less money. The later updates slowed my box down substantially.

I picked up a few coaxial audio cables when Radioshack closed up here. I haven't been able to test any of that yet but so far it seems no ac3 with the gk526 receiver.

Are you getting audio on most of the satellite channels? I have a similar box that came out a while back and I am not getting audio on a lot of the fta channels. Other than that the box works fairly well.

I am not sure if you will be able to receive them but try to get the 16apsk feeds on 95w cband. I have not been able to receive them with the X2. Openbox S10 picks them up fine amongst others.

Has anyone figured out how to get satellite lists to load again? I haven't had time to make a whole new list so I haven't been using the receiver. Since the update the out of order satellite list is more than I am willing to deal with to build a new channel list.

Josh, what kind of USALS motor are you using? I have been running an SG2100 motor for awhile and I have been happy with one of the older October firmware versions. I haven't had much time to test the newer versions.

The USALS and switching works fine for me and I am using the 10/25 firmware I think, so to answer your question Brian the USALS and diseqc switching issues were addressed to my satisfaction. There was a bug that wouldn't let you store the usals setting but I found a workaround that allows you to...

Still one hell of a deal now that most of the bugs are fixed. It would be nice if they could fix the low SR 16apsk reception.

Hi Pollux does the S16 show the signal type and FEC etc? My S9 and S10 only show the freq polarity, and symbol rate. Do you know if the S16 has manual pid entry? My s9 and s10 do not have that feature either.

I ran the firmware tonight and once I reset my diseqc settings it switched from my other port fixed dishes back to the sg2100 dish and also moved to the right spot. This was a big problem before. I am running a 4 to 1 diseqc switch with 3 22khz switches and a dmx741 lnb on the last port. So I am...

Kodaz I have a bandstacked cband lnb and the 5150-5750 setting works with them fine. However the blind scan was backwards for mine. It will give you 3240 instead of 3840 or 4440 instead of 3840. If you manually enter the transponders it works perfect. It acts the same way my coolsat 6000 does...

If you want youtube to work use the 10/11 firmware. The 10/30 firmware is more buggy. The only thing I could find that works better with the 10/30 release is the Weather function. Frige if you have a usb stick with the firmware on it go to: Setup Upgrade & Backup Upgrade by USB In this menu...

Ya the motor control is really screwy now. I can't even get the workaround to work. The diseqc switch seems to switch more consistently but I personally would stick with the 10/11 firmware if using a motor. Youtube also got broken with this release. It just freezes for me. The weather works...

I can safely say that the tuner on this receiver is more sensitive than my Openbox S9. I did some comparisons today and the S9 wouldn't lock a few weaker transponders that the X2 would. The X2 is decent at picking up lower SR tranponders so far. I won't be able to test the elusive mexican locals...

X2 HD gets audio and video fine. Openbox S9 only gets audio. Must be a pid or video format issue.

Ya I have a list with most sats from 61w-137w. just send me a pm and I will find a way to get it to you through email or whatever.

Im not sure. The signal meter would jump from 98ish to 0 intermittently on weaker transponders. Then the other afternoon after turning it on to watch TV it just stayed at zero so I triple checked all of my cable and switches but still couldn't get anything. I verified power to the LNB with my...

No my Openbox S10 is much worse. If you look below my panic post the box started working again. I figured I would give it one last try before returning it.

When it first quit receiving I loaded factory default and it still wouldn't scan. I tried it like 4 times and then hooked up my Openbox S9(which worked perfect) to verify my signal. I then tried to get a replacement and they tried to walk me through some troubleshooting which I already...

My X2 HD quit working yesterday. It gets no signal from the satellite. It is providing voltage but no reception at all. I contacted X2 and they don't have a replacement available for me so it looks like I will have to send it back for a refund. I like the box very much ( the multimedia functions...

If you go to the multimedia section and select photo you can load pictures onto a usb drive and it will automatically play through the pictures like a digital photo frame. It also gives you the option to play music at the same time. I got it to work fine but it said unsupported format on one of...
