Replay Lite Fix 18/12/2008

well if it says bad signal, thats got to be it

make sure your lead is wired up correct and in the replay properly - re wire if necessary, to test

is the scart fully pushed in, check all connections

thats all i can think of, as signal prob is not a flashing prob, i dont think

 

i have checked all the connections and scanned and got all channels first time. it was grand till i flashed with the 09122008 software. should i flashed with 742a then 752 then 910 and then with the new software? sky premiere is grand but sky sports keeps sayin bad signal then scrambled and then coming back on but skipping. a lot of channels have come up tv ch in the channel list

 

a lot of the channels are in TV Channel - you have to find them and rename and move, if you want

well - i havent heard any probs with this upgrade, so up to you - anything worth a shot lol

sorry i cant help further


you could always do a factory reset and try again

did you save your orig config to the pc?

 

no never saved my config. is that the right order for the software's. just untick maintain user dater for 742a and leave it ticked for the rest. thanks for your help

 

not sure on that, as am not an expert

but think if u untick user data, you will deffo have to rescan

i know before the previous 910 in april ish time, had to put the 752 on first and then the 910 - and all i know is, the current one, just went on top and the user data was left ticked, though if u untick, think will have to rescan, am only guessing


have u tried a factory reset (have i said that already lol - i forget) - i think a factory reset takes it back to how it was before

good luck, maybe the more experienced guys can help

still think the bad signal is nothing to do with the firmware, but thats just a guess

 

should i of used stblink6 or does it make a difference? cause i used stblink 520 as i had it from before?

 

think its 5.32 - but not sure - that is a later one

anything worth a shot lol

if you look under some of the others sigs, there are links to eamos library, all the stuffs in there, stb, firmware, instructions - if you download, the instructions are there

 

something similar has happened to me.i downloaded the new fix done a rescan got all the channels working.when i brought the box to a different room any channel on 394 frequency would not work.i tried everything i could think of. changed scart lead etc.totally confused.

 

its known to be a weak tp

 

i have downgraded to 742a (unticking maintain user data) then upgraded to 752 then 910 and then to the latest 281208 fix. codes updated great but the picture is still skipping. the box has worked great for the last 2 years and hasn't moved from the sitting room so i'm skeptical about a signal problem. maybe n*l downgraded the signal if thats possible or maybe the box is getting so much info because its only plugged in. i'm going to leave it on for the night and check it in the morning ill post my results hopefully its good news

 

as stated in my last post i left the box on all night but to no avail. does anyone know if n*l can downgrade the signal?

 

its a long shot but does anyone know the maplins part number for the null modem to usb cable i need for flashing??? a good quality one???

 

its Maplins part number L71BT. its s 9pin female serial to 9pin female serial. make sure you computer has a 9pin male serial port or if it doesn't(most newer computers don't) you'll need a usb to serial adapter. the adapter is around E22 but i got one online for about E11 including delivery. delivery was was quite quick especially over christmas. i can give you the link for the adapter if you want its your choice. the null modem cable only comes in serial to serial. the adapter only changes the usb to a serial port and you still need the null modem cable

 

just wondering...my box is a clone but if i get the correct leads should i be able to fix it myself? its around 30 euro for the lead and the adaptor

 

A clone? Hello! are you in the right thread?

-

 

im not sure to be honest. i just reading through the posts and as i cant get it workin thought id try what yall are recommending?

 

Anyone have any ideas about the above?

 

It should be ok just to go straight to the new image, but you can load 910 first if you want, to be on the safe side.

 

just flashed new fix to box and am having same problem only picking up 68 channels on scan i have scaned about 10 times still the same its not the signal cause i have starview 1 and i get 122 on starview from same feed

 

Thanks Evastar i'll give it a whirl with the 910 first, and post the results accordingly.
