Right i have a very strange issue with my Openbox s10
On some transponders they are fine and open ok where as others like argos tv or gold will not work.
Sometimes if i set it to 9750 i can get V's to clear but universal doesnt want to know half the time.
Here the strangest thing we have a dm500 aswell and if we turn that on then i lose even more channels!!!!
that box is connected same as me to a sky quad lnb, except the dm500 is on a diseqc switch and i am just direct into the quad lnb.
Ive read loads and loads of forums and webistes on about 'Loop through' and i do not think it is that as i have disconnected at the dm500 the wire and i still have problems on certain transponders (no signal)
im yet to remove the connection directly at the lnb and then do another test.
if you ask me these openboxes are a pile of rubish and the firmwares need sorting properly as it seems to me they have a switching problem for v/h!
if its not the openbox being faulty then is it the lnb quad thats working incorrectly? i.e not switching properly?
Have any of you lot got an openbox and another box (not sky box) on a quad lnb and are ok or have issues like me?
or even tried using a 1 port lnb on its own?
I really do not know what to do apart from buy another minidish just for myself upstairs on its own lnb or what.
HELP!
thanks.
