Truman 1.3.79 problems

[solunauk]

I'm having some doubts about the stability of 1.3.79. In the last couple of days my SL65/12 B1 6pin patched with Andysly's version of the EMU stopped receiving a load of channels from 19E, both FTA and encrypted.

Of course, I first suspected bad dish alignment, but I checked it out this morning with a sat finder and it's fine. Several channels came in loud and clear, such as Das Erste, ProSieben etc, but with BBC World (and several others, on a variety of transponders) there was no signal at all. I rescanned the whole of Astra 1 but the problem was just the same. Funny thing is, the level bar said about 80% but the quality bar had 0% on all the unreceivable channels.

I flashed my box back to 1.3.78 and reloaded my channel list (the same one I had used with 1.3.79) and now everything is back to normal. BBC World is showing 86% L, 64% Q on an overcast, drizzly day.

I can't be bothered ATM to flash my box to 1.3.79 again to see if the problem comes back, but I hope this post helps others if they encounter it.

By the way, the FW I'm now using is truman_EMU_1.3.78_AMSTAR_MANDO-AUDIO-DISPLAY_COMAG_FIXED.abs

Seems to clear most things with Svirac's latest keys and I'm not bothered about AU since Pr*m stopped AU-ing.

Thanks Sol. TBH I've not used my little box for a while, but if I encounter problems, I'll know what to do.

I've had similar doubts. I've had episodes of the box freezing and not being able to find channels and on one occasion the channel list became scrambled. A switch on and off sorts it. I had put it down to it getting a bit hot but I've put stick-on finned memory chip heatsinks on the Ali, Hyinx and ST chips and it doesn't seem to have made any difference. So maybe it is a firmware problem.

Hello, yesterday I downloaded the patch SL65A.ZIP into my receiver and it is working well. Then I decided to download next patch into my receiver (just to see what is better): "Truman 1.3.78 revised sl65 autoscan fixed full sat list" (The patch that York is refering too).
This patch is also working well, but how do I enable the "CAS" and where do I fill in the keys? Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance.

Try going to an encrypted channel and typing 9339 for the keys menu. You can enter keys manually with the remote or search for a softcam.key file on the internet and upload all the current keys to the box via rs232. SB.
