Hi All,
I am a newb to this game and have been searching for a couple of days now but can't seem to get to the bottom of this.

I just got my DM600S (have been using retail style boxes and borrowed a friends DM5600S which is only setup for Optus C1).

When using the standard Dreambox image on my box it blindscans justfine and picks up all the channels. When I use the Jade image (latestversion) it will only blindscan on Intelsat8 and when it does I don'tmanage to get all the foxtel channels.

If I try to blindscan any of the Optus transponders it gives me "noTransponder for (LOF/L vertical)". I have tried changing the LNBsettings as per another thread in here but that makes no difference.

Satfind seems to see C1 just find but the transponder searchingdoesn't. I know my signals aren't 100% (got someone coming to tweak thedish) but given that it works with retail boxes, the DM5600s and thestandard image I don't think this is my problem.

Thanks in advance,
Ian

In another thread on another forum [ http://www.austech.i...can-issues.html ] you also said

"Ok...fixed it, but not sure how! Copied config file from etc/tuxbox/enigma on friends box to mine. Rebooted, Rescanned the transponder for C1, Rebooted again (had problems with my remote)

I backed up my config file and will do a comparison for my own peace of mind later."


So do we consider this case closed?

Hi Jon,
Yip case closed. Still no idea what the difference was. But it's all go now. Just having some issues with freezing picture.....but I suspect that issue is down to other software I am running. (Does the DM600S need much free or swap space to function properly? I have no HDD fitted as yet)

Does anyone have a link to acceptable SNR (90+ %) & ACG (around 80%) levels?

Apologies for the cross posting and impatience. I just wasn't sure if the problem was a generic dreambox one or specific to Aus.


Thanks,
Ian
