Hi How can I set my Gigablue Quad to select Tacolneston as the transmitter to tune from.

Hi How do I create a channellist for my DVB-T tuner (3rd Tuner) in my GB Quad as it appears the box only uses the channellist for the 2xDVB-S tuners installed. I only noticed this as we were watching a HD programme that was available on Terrestial and an error message kicked in and said no...

Hi Guys I wonder if you can suggest what to do next. I have been having a lot of trouble with channels not tuning in and an error message 'Tune Failed' popping up. After several re-flashes with new images, a replacement tuner, checking the connections, alignment and signal strength is fine...

My DM800 clone keeps losing the tuner even though I have not changed the LNB or dish position. On Sat afternoon I could not get my regular channels and on Sunday they were all fine again. This morning no tuner again?? Anyone else experienced this. Regards

On my scanned channel listings I have several channels, mostly Sly, that are duplicated 3 times? Why would this happen. Are the duplicates on slightly different frquencies, as I have noticed that the fist listing of say Sly Sports HD3 does not go to HD3 but to HD1, but the second listing does...

Hi Simple question of the day. Does un-plugging the box perform the same function as re-booting E2 from the menu or instructions after a download?

I have a clone which I am havign trouble gettign an image that will work on my ssl82. Is it possible/adviseable to change the box and re-flash with a ssl84/a/b image so that I can use original and latest images? If so, how easy is it to update the ssl to another version?

Well my recovery from 'No CA Found' went well after playing around with the null modem configuration. I was using a Null modem to USB, that did not work but the serial to serial ports did and the DB was repaired. I then loaded the ramiMAHER+blackhole-dm800HD-2011-10-13-#ssl82 image which went...

Problems with my clone running GP2 Sim 2.01 ssbl #82 It won't format my internal HDD so that all the disk space is available for /hdd/movie (on previous postint. The timezone will not remain on GMT. Constant crashes when I adjust settings. Is the image I have not suitable for this clone or is it...

On my clone DM800 I have changed the timezone to GMT saved with green button but it does not change the box times? Why does the box not keep the GMT time?

I have installed my WD hard drive ok and initialised it, device manager says 298Gb free space, but it will only record to the 620mb or so small partition? I can't see any settings other than the movies direct to hdd/film and nothing to direct the recordings to the right place. Any help would be...

Hi All I'm having trouble with an external USB HDD. The drive look like it has mounted automatically as it recognises the Manufacturer of the drive so I assume the box can use it. However when I try to record anything using the instant record button on the remote I get a message 'Free Disk-size...

Hi Just wondering if I connected a second coax from my quad LNB to the OUT connection whether it would enable me to watch a different channel while recording on the main IN connection. Or is the OUT just a loop out from the IN? Regards

I have read on the HD8000 chat that the WD Green is best for the 8000HD. Is it still the best for the 800HD?

Trying to get up to speed with Satellite receivers that can be modified and customised. Had a first try with an Eaglebox 800HD and found it to be un-stable and very frustrating . Now waiting for my DM800HD-C which reading the posts sounds a lot more established but will be a steep learning...
