glitchy dreambox

Hi Alfa,
I was going to reply on this thread because all seems to be well (touch wood!).In saying that on the 12th of this month i was contacted by "my provider" and given a new c-line so maybe there is something behind that?. Anyway on the upside my epg is the dogs b*ll*x and dreambox is glitch free! .One more thing, I never experienced the sound going out of sync so you may have a different problem. Is your broadband ok? I ask this because like I said in post #7 when playing a you tube vid it still freezes and sound "breaks" i had upc out and they said they would monitor the modem for 8 to 10 days ,
Cheers!

 

check your dish alignment. different boxes, different provider, same problem. sounds like your dish might need fine tuning.

 

Hi atghawkin,
I'm using an OpenboxS9 now...But I still have the Dreambox,,but with just the fta's,,and it stil glitches.
The broadband is fine...No bother playing anything on the pc,lappy,,or any other devices.
I have no idea about sorting the epg,so I'll look into that.

Thanks again.

 

Hi fintannl,
Think it might be worth looking into??

I just done a quick check there now...The OpenboxS9 is reading Signal Intensity 85% and Signal Quality is 74%.

The normal Sky+ box is reading Signal Strenth is very poor,with just a tiny "Grey-Block" showing,,And the Signal Quality is showing at nearly full.

Hope this helps.


.

 

every openbox i have put on my wires in my house all read 74/75% signal but when i try other boxes i get 96% so i would take much info from openbox i used starview hd combo to help set my signal and all been spon on in 4 rooms

 

Mine is the other way round..Better on the Openbox than on the Sky+ box..

Hmmmmmm.

Thanks darn..

 

if fta glitches its a dish alignment issue or poor cable connection from dish to box. it is not the box

 

im not meaning its the box all im saying is every openbox i use in my house only get 74/75% signal but works perfect on every channel just saying the openbox does not give correct signal % just my opinion

 

Thanks again fintannl....

I'll go about hunting down someone to re-align the dish for Me..

 

Nice one darn..I get what you mean..

The Sky box went off twice today,,with the "No signal being recieved" on the screen..So I checked the openbox,only for all the pay channels to be off as well,,and only the fta's were working..

Must have re-booted the boxes about 3 or 4 times each,,and had to go out..So I left them off..It was only when I was going out the gate,I looked up,,and saw a feckin crow sitting on the lnb arm,completley blocking the signal to it.

Took the kids a few throws of some stones to get the bugger to move..

Must get some cable ties attached to that arm now as well..

Pesky birds.

 

dear friends,how can i know how many channels available by using one DVB-S or DVB-T?
lOOK forward to ur early reply.have a nice day!
