I think that VIARK SAT 4K is a very good receiver. Good tuner and good blind scan.
The only issue is that blind scan covers the entire band without the chance to set a specific frequency range.
This creates the problem mentioned above, a satellite scan could load channels from different sats (10E and 9E for example, but also 4W and 5W). This is because these satellites use different Ku band portions.
It would be very useful if such scanning range option could be added in a next firmware update.

It supports unicable lnb ?

Mine does the same.

Got some 8W channels showing under Nilesat.

Several users have been asking contacts of receiver manufacturers repeatedly for blind scan range filtering to be implemented in these receivers.
This has been asked for at least a year, probably longer.

To date, nothing has been done about it. My personal guess is that it will not be implemented.


The solution I use is as follow:

1. Blind scan with either a TBS card, E2 receiver or older satellite receiver that has blind scan range filtering.
2. Check the results for any feeds/channels you want from the blind scan.
3. Manually scan the required individual transponders in the Forever Server receiver that does not have blind scan range filtering.


It is a bit of a long way round but at least you do not have the Forever Server receiver full of unwanted frequencies from a close neighbouring satellite.

I have never seen it asked for, but it would definitely be useful if they could do it.

There is a long topic elsewhere on the internet where users have been asking a contact of one of the Chinese box manufacturers repeatedly for it to be implemented.

They don't need to improve these stb, they are there just to carry the forever server etc they are $50 stb at most.

Viark 4k

Viark 4k

Just to be pedantic, Viark Sat 4K. Not the old Viark Sat.

They're simply uninterested in producing a feedhunter box, why would they be given the nature of what the manufacturer wants to achieve.

No one would buy these boxes if it were not for what they open.

Only one is 4k

The Viark Sat is capable though.
