Please check to see if it will scan in all 5 channels on G16 @ 3845 H 15030. I have to input PIDs manually to get them, using 1.56 firmware.
Also, 3776 H 3255 on G16.

I know that 3845 H 15030 should scan in "out of the box" with any AzBox miniMe American Edition firmware as this transponder actually has an SDT table but the channels themselves have no names so these are generated automatically when scanned. Not sure about 3776 H 3255 though so I will have that transponder checked out.

The 3845 MUX should scan in with the following names:
unknown (0x0001_0x0001)
unknown (0x0001_0x0002)
unknown (0x0001_0x0003)
unknown (0x0001_0x0006)
unknown (0x0001_0x0008)
unknown (0x0001_0x00071)

Also keep in mind that channels in the 3845 MUX have the encrypted flag set but the channels are actually in the clear so you have to make sure to first turn off the FTA channels only option before you scan this transponder.

As for 3776 H 3255, it appears to have a non-standard SDT table which is why you had to manually enter PIDs in but we are making adjustments in our parsing code in order to handle channels like this.

Why are you using SDT to gather channel data.

You should be gathering the PAT, then use that to get the PMT for each channel.

The SDT should only be used for channel names and even that is in the PMT sometimes. The SDT should not be required for your application to work.

You dont do EPG do you? just curious.
updatelee
Also to add, 3845 may have the encryption flag on in the SDT, but there is no CAT 0x01 and no CA descriptors in the PMT. A pretty much 100% guarantee its not encrypted. The opposite doesnt always hold true, but if it really is encrypted, the receiver on the other end is going to need some way of knowing how to deal with that encryption.

After a few adjustments in our parsing code, we are now able to scan the above transponder without having to manually enter PIDs. Pretty much any transponder with active video or audio services now scans in without any issues. This is one of the many improvements of firmware version 1.65 which will be released as soon as our QA can complete testing.

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....

I'm getting fabulous picture on Ch. 148 4k, but zero audio with H713. This is with a recorded show (Notre Dame game). Anyone else have this? Audio is fine on every other channel.

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.

I have gotten back into watching SG-1 and I have recorded most of the episodes to binge watch. What episodes are about the Antarctic or was this a movie? Also where could I watch the SG-1 movies?

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.

Which one has O'Neil being Ancients? I am at the end of Season 8 now.

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.
