    AMIKO AMIKO Mini HD SE USB Problem

    Corrado, primestar, & KE4EST: The Passport drive is powered via the USB port. Works fine in one Amiko and not the other. Latest Update Mar 21 2014 S/W Version 10000A00_1.0.54 So, apparently it's not something simple like an unselected menu item. Guess I'll try my other USB HD when I get...

    AMIKO AMIKO Mini HD SE USB Problem

    Corrado: Thanks for the reply. The media tab stays greyed out with the HD connected. The media tab is not greyed out with a flash drive connected. The media tab is not greyed out with a flash drive and HD connected, but the yellow button only shows format info for the flash drive. (BTW: The HD...

    AMIKO AMIKO Mini HD SE USB Problem

    Corrado: You question is a logical one! Unfortunately, the PS not the problem. I was only gifted the receiver and have to use my original power supply with both receivers.

    AMIKO AMIKO Mini HD SE USB Problem

    I was recently gifted an Amiko Mini HD SE. This Amiko will not recognize a WD Passport HD connected to either USB port. All the other receiver functions are working normally. The receiver DOES recognize flash drives O.K. I have another Amiko Mini HD SE that has been working perfectly with this...

    OTHER Basic DVB-S/S2 Receiver

    Sure FTA4PA, NOW you tell us! It's been 9 days and my receiver is still in China "preparing for shipment". I'm hoping this is one of those occasions were the shipping status goes directly from "preparing for shipment" to "delivered" with no updates in-between. Please give us a report on the...

    AMIKO How to set Aspect Ratio on Mini HD SE

    We have so many severe storm warnings, that it gets really annoying having the warnings constantly scrolling the TV screen. (Seems EVERY storm is a SEVERE storm these days.) Anyway. I'm old school. I have a strip of cardboard that snaps on the bottom 6" of the TV with Velcro. Even have a cutout...

    AMIKO Amiko MINI HD se observations.

    Possible software changes? Would it be possible to have the time bar stay on the screen the entire time the DVR is in FWD or REV. (Rater than having it go off the screen after a few seconds.) If there is a reason the bar has to go off please explain. Comments???? Also, is there a way to get...

    AMIKO Mini HD SE Hard Drive Size

    Got the 2 TB HD today. Works O.K. with the Amiko. The drive is in an aluminum case, weighs about 5x more than the Amiko and is built like a tank. It is also by far, the noisiest HD I've ever owned. Had to place a rubber pad under the drive to quiet it down when recording. This will be the LAST...

    Thanks Titanium! EDIT: Ordered the drive. This will be a dedicated drive for use as a DVR only. NO backup files will be stored here. So willing take a chance on this cheap drive. More worried about a stock market crash than an HD crash! New record high again today on light volume. It ain't...

    One more feature I'd like to see implemented on the HD SE: A way to lock the "Q" Meter ON for dish tuning. Very irritating to have to keep hitting the remote button to bring up the "Q" reading!

    This appears to be just a random Amiko Mini HD SE thread so rather than starting a new thread... When I first purchased my Amiko, the clock was loosing about 3 minutes a week. Now, almost a year later, the time will stay spot on for over a month! Is the Amiko getting time updates from a...

    AMIKO Mini HD SE Comments

    I'd like to add one more item to N6BY's list. Coming out of a DVR record, have the receiver return to the satellite menu that was present when the record was initiated instead of going to the all-channels menu.
