@manx

iv used it many times only time it failed i had to use DreamUP to reflash but that was because i was doing it wireless so always use ethernet lead, glad you got it :Cheers:

hi

its an old post so here it is remember if flashing image name image backup.img

 

[rljutter]

iv always used FlashWizord pro to make backups and flash mate i only use DCC when i have to as it takes longer

click on "Install a firmware into FLASH memory" and you will see "flash image backup" click on that to do a backup then reflash the image to other box where you see "Drag&Drop a fle here" . need to setup your settings first

Program here

Brew has been made .........

However slight problem for me, my original receiver has all the MTV channels but the 2nd receiver after flashing with a copy of the first has Switch cannot be found, had this problem in the past but never been able to sort it ....... any ideas ?

 

[rljutter]

Think the problem above has something to do with the transponder freq i manually added to the original receiver to get all the missing channels i was originally suffering from. My original receiver has MTV DANCE on 11.894 v 27500 2/3 but when i search for this on my 2nd receiver it finds nothing for some strange reason, signal levels are 95/98 so i know thats fine.

Is there something in the setting of the 2nd receiver that may be different from the ones in the 1st ? maybe something i can update ?

 

[Fergalsworld]

Are both boxes on a fixed dish or one on a motor?
you could try setting the problem one up as using a motor (even if its not on one) put your long and latitude in see if that gets rid of the switch not found problem.

 

[rljutter]

Yes its just a single fixed dish and lnb, tried that and it doesnt sort the problem

 

[Fergalsworld]

Try these ones, if that don't work you could try the commando image but they use a different format of bouquets and services
i can upload them to if you need them

 

[rljutter]

Can you upload an image ( or link them ) that works perfectly with that bouquet ? would save me alot of problems and alot of mixing and matching

Those bouquets are from darkstar image, the commando image is here.
