I have just run a power scan to make sure I had the right channel for the Hatton fight, I now have about 15 channels in total.

I have favourites set up from the 28/04 fix and now only have 2/3 channels in each favourite section.

Any help/advice would be appreciated as I have people coming round expecting to watch the fight

Just to add that I have sent a cdf file for Wigan (closest I could find to me) and put in the new keys from BigMaq and nothing has changed.

Do I need to scan after adding a cdf or keys?

Try this CDF

You could give this cdf a try. Post No.119. If you have the latest fix, you should not need to input the keys manually.

Thanks

I will try, just to clarify do I just need to upload the cdf through voxer or the UFL. Do I then need to scan or should the channels be there?

Just upload through the UFL and the channels should be there.

I have sent the CDF file and when I have plugged everything back in I am just getting a blank screen. If I go into channel/favourite manager there are no channels in there or favourites set up even though I could see them in the file before I sent it.

Does this sound like a problem with the box?

You could try a factory reset on the box, powerscan to see what you pick up, if nothing try reflashing the box then download the cdf again, when you download the cdf you have to wait a short for the display on the front of the box to cycle through a routine before you disconnect. The cdf could be different with being out of the area.

Do I send the CDF with the box switched on or in standby? When I plugged it back in earlier it seemed to be set to radio mode but I couldnt switch to TV channels with the remote

flowerybap · 24-05-08, 11:03 AM

I normally do mine with the box in standby mode, unsure as to why your box would revert to radio though.

Hilty · 24-05-08, 11:09 AM

Thanks for all your help, a reset and powerscan has again only brought up the bare minimum. I will try another reset then flash and CDF.

If none of that works then I will have to very quickly think of a plan to stop me from being in a boxing match this evening
