You really are on the ball @smithysmudger

i must back up my list now and load it ...thanks for testing you certainly are on top of everything

I have my box “low power standby“ set to on in the system configuration settings so when it’s restarted in the morning it’s basically a reboot and automatically picks up any software updates

 

[barney115]

it did save my list and looked like it would load it but it failed to load .
i went to Menu>channel list > save user Data > okay and appeared to load list after PT1.18 Loaded up and rebooted box
but nope still default list 19/30W And IPTV List is all that is there ....Damn it !!1

 

[barney115]

will be scanning now all satellites again looks like

 

[barney115]

perhaps i done it wrong backing up my list ..?
perhaps someone can post up a little guide to see what i done wrong ?
cheers !

 

[smithysmudger]

To load your saved channel list it’s Net & Games-USB-search for the list you saved as a backup or the most recently backed up list in the file list then click OK while on the file and it will load it

 

[barney115]

ahh i see ..... thats exactly where i went wrong
thank you very much @smithysmudger

 

[smithysmudger]

The USALS settings may need to be updated manually after an update so worthwhile checking them too

@barney115
I always go
Net & Games-USB- Press epg then enter 1113

Yes that’s the way I backup my channel list too, @barney115 was having issues uploading a channel list so the method I proposed would enable him to load a previously saved channel list without having to manually rescan all the satellites

I was hoping they would solve the Apollo problem with 1.18: it doesn't search for films by genre or language. Version 1.16 was fine

I saw you mention that before in the forum so it may have been fed back to viark team?
