Hi friends ...
Is it just me that thinks a box which cost so much should at least be fitted with a good quality tuner ?
For a week now I've tried to scan in the channels from Nilesat at 7 west..
Im aware that at my location in the uk ...this is considered fringe reception at best and I only ever get vertical transponders and the sig strength is at its best in the evening...but here's the irony..
My Humax HDCI 2000 has no probs scanning the vertical transponders of this sat ..and was less than half the price of the IP box
My S2-3200 HD pci card has no probs either and cost less than a quarter of the price of the 9000
Finally ..my Skystar2 pci card has no problems either ...and cost less than a 1/8th of the price of this 'top of the range' box...
The IP9000 ...however ..doesn't even know there is a satellite at this location ...
...and scans nothing using auto or manual ...
..and I tried both tuners ..just in case...
The tuner also has problems with some of the weaker 'feeds' etc..
btw ..does anyone have a channel list already scanned for Nilesat (usals) ...so I can import it and test without the need to scan..?
