As you might have noticed our automated Dish Network Uplink Report has not been outputing 100% accurate reports over the last few weeks.

The reason for this is due to the fact that Dish Network has started duplicating channels from 110/119 to 61.5 as they get ready to roll out their new all MPEG4 service which we here at SatelliteGuys refer to as the "Eastern Arc" service.

When they add them to 61.5 even though they are still available on their origional location our software has been removing them because the software we capture the data with can not handle the duplicate entries.

While Digiblur has been working hard to fix the issue, the true problem lies within the datstream capture software we are using. At this time it does not appear the issue will be fixed, however the problem should go away when Dish Network officially turns on the new Eastern Arc Service for customers.

We have been lucky enough to have the godfather of uplink reports John H lend us his corrections over the past few weeks and thank him for his assistance. John still does his reports the old fashioned way... by hand. :)

We apologize for the issue and thank you for your patience in this matter.

Yeah, sure. But number of channels is lot less them SIDs [4917].
Perhaps you missed the post about periodical and irregular changes:

Well, SIDs/channels. There are many different types of channels. There are also more streams than SIDs.

The morning sports moves are listed in that chart you provided, but the chart doesn't seem to indicate what happened other than the table version number changed.

It is not to important to catch it when it happens. One reports the changes since last sample, regardless of what time it is. if you get too close to the time of an update, the system may still be loading new and you get a partial which may not be the same in the SDT and NIT.
S
Nay, I'm making the tables right after new full NIT or SDT spooled. NP with that catching it right away, there are more issues in real time: missed packets, bad sections, etc.

NIT tables aready done. SDT will be more complex, but this is a job not for tonight ...

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

It's a known issue.
For a temporary fix, go into the menu, Audio, and turn Dolby Audio "OFF". You will have PCM stereo audio.

I was able to give the tech ops team some data logs so they could diagnose the problem, and they rolled me back to H708 temporarily. It fixed that issue.

They let me know that they understand what caused the issue, and it will be fixed within a few weeks in a new update.

I guess they will be busy when lots of people start asking for rollbacks to H708 now that you mention that downgrades of software does exist because it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner and the IR Remote problems in H710-H713.

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

Well, there are a couple involving the Antarctic. "Solitudes", S1 E17 (one of my favorites), Then, "Lost City', S7 E21 and E22. Then, in the SGA pilot, "Rising", S1 E1 and E2, it starts out in the Antarctic for about the first 20 minutes or so.

If I understand your question, O'Neill had the Ancient's knowledge in the "Lost City" two-part episode. That was when Anubis attacked Earth and there was a big battle over Antarctica.
