Can't read NDF files anymore?

[SpiffWilkie]

I tried to edit my channel list yesterday and now I can't seem to open the .ndf files that I grab from my diamond 9000 hd. Funny thing is, I can't open files that I was just able to open a week ago. I backed up and edited the list a week ago and now even those files won't work. I copied the files to another PC and they still won't work. Last thing to try is to download the files directly to another PC from the stb (unfortunately, I don't have another laptop with a serial port

Has anyone ever experienced this abomination before?

Are you using the Diamond Editor?

Are you using the Diamond Editor?

Nope. I don't think I've ever had that. I'm using STBtool and NDFedit. I have also tried channelmaster. In addition to using STBtool, I've tried getting the file off the box by dumping it to the connected USB hard drive in the options menu somewhere. That file didn't work either.

I just can't figure out why it stopped all of the sudden. Really, the only think that I can think of is that I'm using my work PC and I'm always installing all sorts of SDK's and frameworks, etc. I guess it's possible that that could have done something to screw this up.

Hmmm...well, perhaps my copy of NDFeditor was somehow corrupted??? I just downloaded it again from your post here and now all is right in the world!

Thanks.

It's the darndest thing, I tell ya...
