Default tt 1501 Help

OK been reading through here all day and Im now a bit stuck.

I downloaded all the relevant files from download page Installed ProgDVB as the guide said
I selected UKbrute force ini file and scanned after about 50 minutes

When this process finished I was left with a list of folders on the left numbered 41-71 some number were missing from the sequence and each folder also had a different name of a UK location.
None of these locations were the area I happen to live in though (Wirral)

Next I installed Vplug and copied over v_keys.db that came with the file

When I click on a green channels in these folders I do get a picture which is a bit choppy on some channels

When I click on the red channels I just get a blank screen

I did a bit more reading and found out about a toolbar that gave me some keys I followed the instructions in this thread Transponder creator to input the keys updated the corresponding keys that the toolbar gave me closed everything restarted and tried the red channels again but there still nothing opens

So this is were I'm stuck

Anyone see what I've done wrong do I need a special v_keys.db or an ini file for my area if so were can I get these from.
Also what can I do about the choppy picture

any help most appreciated

Hi,
i'vfe recently fouand out (after being advised by another member) that the provider code is different on the cable boxes to the one you input on your vplug monitor. Maybe this has something to do with it? Because i put the correct keys into mine, but until i changed the provider code i only got the FTA channels.
Is this more or less what you mean?
You say your in the Wirral but what provder do you use?
eg: n*t = 54 01 (on a eurovox)
but on the pc in vplug i have to put in 55 01 as the provider. God knows why but it works for me (and others).
Hope it helps.
There will no doubt be someone who will come along with a transponder specific to your area too, just hold out for more replies dude.

Don't know what to say.

I’ve noticed for a while the provider id changing (never really looked into it), I’m in ex C&W on the toolbar atm it’s 5C01, in vplug it’s 5D01, back at the end of April (after the big hit) it was 5C01. I know this as Vplug keeps a log, I wonder if it auto detects the provider id?
In dvbdream I have a fenrir and yankse they no longer AU, fenrir has the rom 7,10,11, enabled, atm when I set them off it says provider id 5C01 on both.
I would be interested if other members have had vplug installed for a while if their provider id has changed, go to plugins folder and look for a file "VPlugGUI.Log".
