AZBOX AzBox miniMe American edition v2.03 / v1.87 firmware

AzBox Americas is proud to announce the release of firmware versions 2.03 and 1.87 for the AzBox miniMe American Edition.

These releases now enable users to either upgrade or downgrade to and from 2.x and 1.x series firmware and adds enhanced data verification during the kernel / bootloader flashing procedure. This should resolve the issues that a few users have experienced with a non-booting receiver due to a corrupted kernel / bootloader.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWNG CAREFULLY AND CHOOSE THE CORRECT UPGRADE PATH BASED ON YOUR CURRENT FIRMWARE VERSION IN ORDER TO AVOID POTENTIAL ISSUES DURING THE UPGRADE PROCESS:

Firmware 1.86 or lower upgrading to 2.03: First upgrade to 1.87 Release 09.01.2015 16:24 under online update or download and flash miniMe_AmericanEdition_187.img which is listed under AzBox miniMe American edition firmware version 1.87 Release on the website.

Once your receiver is upgraded to 1.87, you may then proceed in upgrading to 2.03 KFL Release 09.01.2015 16:57 under online update or download and flash miniMe_AE_v203.kfl which is listed under AzBox miniMe American edition firmware version 2.03 KFL Release on the website. Please note that in some cases, your receiver may not automatically reboot after the firmware finishes flashing. If your receiver does not reboot after over 1 minute the flash operation completed, please press and hold down the power button for 5 seconds in order to do a hard reboot of the unit.
Firmware 2.00, 2.01 or 2.02 upgrading to 2.03: Upgrade to 2.03 UFL Release 09.01.2015 16:56 under online update or download and flash miniMe_AE_v203.ufl which is listed under AzBox miniMe American edition firmware version 2.03 UFL Release on the website.
Firmware 2.03 downgrading to 1.87: Downgrade to 1.87 KFL Release 09.01.2015 16:25 under online update or download and flash miniMe_AmericanEdition_187.kfl which is listed under AzBox miniMe American edition firmware version 1.87 KFL Release on the website. Please note that 2.00, 2.01 or 2.02 firmware users MUST upgrade to 2.03 first before downgrading to 1.87.

Firwmare version 2.03 also includes the following enhancements based on SatelliteGuys member feedback.

Bug fixes:

Fixed signal quality bar showing 0 instead of 100% on strong signals
Issue reported by bobsav2001 and migold - Thank you!
Fixed issue where receiver's GUI was restarting when tuning certain channels.
Issue reported by bobsav2001 - Thank you!
Fixed online radio player under new kernel and improved buffering performance
Fixed pausing function not working during Youtube video playback
Other miscellaneous fixes

Improvements:

Added scan for wireless networks and improved performance under new kernel.
Updated entire North American radio station list with current streaming URL's (including SatelliteGuys Radio and WION)
Added support for downgrading from 2.x to 1.x series firmware.

Please note that it is NOT possible to preserve user settings when upgrading or downgrading to a KFL format firmware release as the kernel / bootloader is updated as part of the process. However, upgrading to Release .img or UFL Release .ufl firmwares still provide you with the option to preserve user settings during the upgrade.

In order to preserve your user preferences and scanned channels during a KFL firmware upgrade, you must first back up up your current user settings to a USB flash drive. Once the update is completed, the backed up user settings can easily be restored without any issues which will restore everything including configured satellites and scanned channels.

To backup your all your system settings which includes dish configuration and scanned channels, go to:
Settings -> Manage settings -> Backup system configuration after connecting a USB drive to the unit.

Restoring your system backup including dish configuration and scanned channels is just as easy:
Settings -> Manage settings -> Restore system configuration then select your time stamped backup file off your connected USB drive.

Available for download now via the Internet update function on network connected receivers or download via our support page on azboxamericas.com to install using your USB flash drive.

Have fun and happy feedhunting!

For what it's worth, I am not being told by a few different members that PwrSurge has decided he will not repair / replace anyone's boxes if they post here to SatelliteGuys. In addition he has asked from members to remove their posts here from SatelliteGuys before he will service or return their defective receivers.

If you have a problem with an AZbox and PwrTurd won't help you and wants you to remove your posts here, then I am sorry that you have wasted your money on an Azbox product, as we do not remove posts here at SatelliteGuys. This has always been our policy since day one and we have no plans on changing it.

If PwrSure is refusing to fix your hardware because you are posting here, then if I were you I would consider filing legal action against him for violating his own posted warranties on his AZbox products. Remember all Azbox Minis have a full 2 year warranty. There is nothing in the warranty that says your warranty is void if you post here (or anywhere else)

From my stand point, (my opinion) this make Serge Cormier even more of a liar and a cheat and I would personally recommend that you do not do business with AZbox, Dr Sat or any of the other fake company names he might use.

For all practical purposes AZbox the REAL company that made the AZbox is and has been out of business.for a few years now. The only place I know of now is coming from a guy who still has a few cases left in his basement that he is looking to get rid of. Its unfortunate that his support as of late has been bricking more boxes then fixing them, showing me he has no quality control whatsoever of the products and software updates he is putting out. Again it is my opinion that you stay far... far away from AZbox, PwrSurge etc unless you like burning your money.

In all fairness to PwrSurge, the latest firmware release is excellent! I cannot now find fault with this box. I have had this on constant test since my first 2 boxes arrived back from service. I have even got this working on Ka band over here and can honestly say out of all the receivers I have tried for sensitivity on Ka band the MiniMe is the best, even up against the Alien 3 the Minime comes out top. I now love my MiniMe!!

Just for the record, I was the one that made the request to either delete or edit some of the posts I made on this thread as I now consider are a little bit over the top. What Scott said about PwrSurge refusing to repair or replace boxes if they post on SatelliteGuys is untrue as far as I'm concerned as both of my boxes were repaired under warranty even after posting here. I am unaware, personally, of anyone who has got refused to have their receiver repaired under the 2 year warranty period.

I have no complaints other than the time it took to dispatch my boxes back and the entire shipment cost to and from the UK was covered by AzBox Americas, perhaps I was a bit hasty in complaining!. I was unaware that it is against forum rules for members to request getting some or all of their posts edited or removed.

I am aware that some people on here are jealous of AzBox and it is certainly understandable as no other receiver in the market currently supports 4.2.2. However, all this anti-AzBox bickering and even banning PwrSurge from here is a bit inexplicable, as he has provided some good support for the AZboxes which has not all but dried up here in Europe, at least PwrSurge is keeping the support for the MiniMe alive, and as far as I'm concerned now it the best firmware that is now available for this box.

For that price on eBay for an AzBox MiniMe I will pass. Even with great firmware it is simply not worth it for 4.2.2 built-in (for me at least).

If you're gonna pay over $200 then you can get a TBS 6983 card which will do pretty much everything.

As for the bickering, I agree that it was quite unpleasant and I hope we never see anything like that here again.

Apr 22, 2015

If the box works, the 200.oo is a okay price. But, as a previous owner of the box, I wasn't about to pay that cost to become a TESTER. I returned it after many frustrating hours. As i had said before, it had some nice features, and I wanted to like the box. I was frustrated with the constant reboots, re-flashes, and video audio sync issues. This may be the best firmware, yet, it is still BETAware. As I have read on the other site, there are still issues with slow channel changes, and timeshifting. I will only be persuaded when I hear a majority of people say that this indeed a stable unit and then I will start to believe the unit is worth a second view.

I need a unit that will run all day without incident. I don't have the patience to deal with it otherwise.

Really?

Here is your email. And its not the only one like I got.

Hi

I was wondering if you could delete 3 posts I made in the above forum as I'm unable to do it now. I need a Minime re-flashing and ex member PwrSurge is getting his knickers in a twist and won't do this unless these posts are removed.

Quote

I had the same problem back in December. The boxes had to be sent back for a re flash of the firmware. I sent them at the beginning of January, and I'm still waiting for them. Pwrsurge says they have been sent back at the end of Jan, nothing arrived here!! He can't even send me any proof of posting despite me asking several times or any tracking info.Why???
So it looks like I may never see my boxes again which I spent good money on unless he agrees to sending me replacements, but I'm not holding my breath!!

Quote

Absolutely spot on! I still have not had my boxes back, takes him an age to answer a PM on his forum then avoids the questions that I ask, I have had all the excuses under the sun about my boxes not arriving, from Canada Post, UK custom delays, blah, blah, blah. I doubt I will see my boxes again and certainly would not deal with him or his company in the future, appalling customer service!!!

Quote

More like Satguys booted him rather than the other way round!
My boxes were both bought from there official Canadian dealers, and when there update bricked both boxes they were sent back the AZbox Americas themselves rather then sending them back to the individual dealers.
Still no sign of my boxes, I find it odd they will not provide me with, 1, any proof they posted them back, 2 what service they used to send them back, 3 sending them back with no tracking. All very strange, my guess he sent them back surface mail so it could be 4-6 weeks, but I cannot get a straight answer!

Many thanks

Chris (scopus) UK

Again I personally don't recommend purchasing from Azbox Canada or America. For all practile reasons there is no more AZbox.

I think they were more of a transitional receiver bridging the VIPs to the Hopper. They were a PITA to install and were buggy. Personally, I thought at the time that they were the best receiver out there. The versatility of the VIP's with the new Hopper GUI and, by far, the coolest-looking front plate and lighting.

Well if it is because of reliability that wouldnt shock me.I went through 5 or 6 of them in little over 2 years. I loved the Sling when it worked! Saved lots of money having it in the day. That was probably 15 or 16 years ago?

I don't recall that they came out just before hopper, but rather that they came out even before 722. Or could be thinking of 921.

As to the title pf the post, "rare" does not necessarily mean valuable or desirable.

You are thinking of the 921. The 922 was the first DVR with Sling functionality built in (that was eventually disabled along with the Sling Adapter for the 722s and the 1st Hopper because they relied on now-defunct Adobe Flash technology). With the bugginess described by others and the removal of its marquee feature (Sling) the 922 faded into obscurity once the Hopper 2 with built in Sling was released and they finally made the concept into a fully functional product.

Song Name Game Part 3!

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....

Has anyone noticed an FF stutter with 713? I used to be able to hit FF a few times and skip smoothly. After 713 (maybe 712), when I skip forward, there is a definite stutter for as many times as I have pressed FF.

Can anyone check on this and report back? Recorded programs and then press skip forward a few times to see if it's smooth? Normally, it just jumps to the right place after the skips.

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.

2026-27 NCAA College Football

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.

A lot of upsets yesterday, but my LSU Tigers won.

Best fan sign I saw during the ND-BYU game: "Bear ate your Lucky Charms!" (Bear being the Cougars' QB). I was going to suggest, "Have you or your team been involved in a Carr crash?"

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy - Paramount+

Season 2 order already in hand:

'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1

I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

I'm sure I will watch at least the first episode but I am not optimistic.

Here i am over a year later and just finished season 1. Not great but not as bad as I was expecting. Did not care for the barefoot captain stuff but overall ok. Actually looking forward to see what they did for season 2.

Yeah, the foot stuff was just nasty. I kept thinking of how dirty her feet would get traipsing around shoe-less. Funny, I love being shoe less at home and never wear shoes indoors in my home for long, but seeing her laying on all her furniture with her bare feet hanging out just kind of grossed me out.

Where would this "dirt" come from? Dead skin and dandruff?

There would still be dirt ,dust in the future I am sure. So walking around the station like she did she would get stuff on her feet. I am sure the robot vacuum is still going to miss stuff, with all those different alien species running around there.

Where is it going to come from -- specifically?

Why do you think cleaning technology won't improve in the next few hundred years? HEPA filtration was invented as part of the Manhattan Project.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.

Stay out of my office. I rarely have shoes or socks on in the office. My office and business is at home though :clapping

I just thought her behavior, including the bare feet thing, was disrespectful to her position.
