Hi,

Just wondering if you could be kind enough to reply to my last post & tell me what to do now - is it OK for me to know apply this Back Up image after having applied the "Tuner" settings you linked?

If so, please be kind enough to let me know the process I should follow - should I do a back up of the current settings first?

Many Thanks!

Bazzy, backup your existing config & settings using the built in backup manager or DreamboxEDIT then flash the backup & restore them to the new image.

Hi,

Thank you for getting back to me - very much appreciated! I got a USB Stick - only 512mb or so & reformatted it to FAt32 so it was clean. I copied your "vuplus" folder on to the stick & did the install procedure. Turned off set at back, installed USB Stick at front port, switched set back on & pressed Power button when prompted. It did it's thing but asked me to press power button again during the process (should I have done so?) - I did not as per a Youtube Video I saw & things seemed to load up as your image came up on screen. However, I got a message saying "Error - Tune Failed!"

What can I do now to resolve this please sir? No idea why it is happening - are there any settings I should adjust or should I try the install procedure again?

Just to let you know, I thought a Software Update might do the trick as there were 190 updates but I could not as I get "Failed" message when trying. The screen is now frozen on this message & the RC does not respond to any commands like cancel/exit/off etc.

Sincere Thanks!

Reset the box using the switch at the back & it should come back, the message tune failed is because you have not yet restored your own settings. The backup was made with tuner A using a fixed dish at 28.2E & tuner B set equal to it.

Hi Ten Below!

I was finally able to do it - Thank you so much! This is my first "victory" in setting anything up so am very grateful! I now have to figure out somehow how to load all those Channel Lists, Picons etc & make sense of the endless options in the various menu's - so much stuff in there I have no idea about! Looks like my installer will not be back in my area for quite some time so I will be left to try & figure things out by myself!

My next challenge is to try & set things up on the Motorised side of things - do you know of any easy to follow guides with settings I can follow?

Many Sincere Thanks!

Magic Image Ten. As you most probably read I had a prob with ATV, but now, with Christmas around the corner, our viewing is as it should be.

Many thanks and I/we hope you and your loved ones enjoy the Festive Season.

I just installed this image for a trial but it wont allow me to install catseyes all sats, it goes through the process but on reboot it still has the backup sats, ie what it says in the first post!! 0.8w to 28east.

Sounds like a problem with whatever you are using to transfer them rather than the image, i have just added them to our addons panel for you please try installing from there.

Hello bmitie, welcome to the best Satellite Forum on the planet.

If its any help I use VU Toolbox to upload Settings, it has provision for 'Upload Channel List as well as FTP, IPK etc.

Hope this is of some help.

Hi,

Thank you again -I will look at that guide & see if I can apply the info. Tbh, it was a nightmare trying to get any channels - I do not know how but I finally managed to get at least the 28.2E Channels on the box but in a very random order - I think (but not sure) this was on both Tuner A & B but I am finding it very hard to be able to tell or select between the two as the system does not allow it or I do not know how. Every time I select one of the tuners & press OK, it scans all the channels again & it takes ages for it to complete. Do you know how to switch between both tuners & check?

I have one cable from a Motorised Dish going to Tuner A & another cable going from a fixed Sky Dish to Tuner B. I am totally lost on how to set up the motorised side of things so have only tried on 28.2E as I am not at all familiar with all the other sats & their tech details.

I will try & apply the guide & report back - just looking at the motorised section on that guide, I can tell you I input in somethings completely different!

Should I apply this BackUp Image to both Tuners then?

Many Thanks!

Added:

OK - Just applied the settings exactly as per guide (Both had incorrect inputs!). Tuner B is Fixed Dish & details comply.

Tuner A is Motorised Dish & again, inputted exactly as per guide except put: -0036 as 359.66 West - is that correct? Also, after saving it says "Positioner USALS".

The installer put in a TM2600 Motor & told me is was a DisESqC one?

Sorry to read that but I very much doubt the glitching is down to the image. :D

I never setup parental control in any backup you will have to enable this yourself.
