You need to insert the Cables XML into the image
If you do that and it still searches for satt you either got A Duff tuner
Or a sat Tuner ......Paul

You need to Download Cables XML
And ftp them into
Var/tuxbox/config/zappit
f you cant find these .....Shout .....Paul

Usually when they only display satellite parameters the tuner is faulty - worth checking you have got good solder joints

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem, i have a DiSEqC setting (which i never used to get) and lists astra satellite. I've already put my old Cables, services and bouquets in it!!!
Any help???

Hi think i may have sorted it,
went to edit the files(cables,services and bouquets) using the blue button and in built file manager, noticed they were ok and saved anyway. did a reboot and all my old service providers came back in!!
give it a try
