Does anybody know how can I receive a satellite channel that doesn't have an SID? And I don't have on my receiver PID scan.

What on earth are you trying to receive?

There is a channel on Express AM22 with no SID, when I search for it on the receiver I don't get, but on the internet it is said that it exists. What should I do?

Not sure you can ............. Flysat says it is hidden (not in Programme Map Table) and requires manual PID entry.

What Receiver are you using? (It's helpful to keep an up to date kit list under your User Profile)

Are you sure you cannot create a "User Channel"?

You need to put the pids in manually. If your receiver doesnt allow that then you cant watch it.

there is a program "SIDFinder_v1.0.6"
Maybe it works for you .

If you use an Enigma based receiver, you could try loading pre-set channel lists. I have this channel in my list already and it works (haven't tried scanning it though).

scanning won't be successful. There is no SI referring to the elementary streams ;) You have to define this channel manually. How, depends on your receiver/application.

And what does this program do? : maybe its called sidfinder because it can find sids !!

And how would it help me? : I understood that you wanted to know the sid for that channel !!

I never tried it , but maybe it can .

Thanks but the channel I'm trying to receive doesn't have an SID and doesn't appear when I scan and my receiver doesn't support PID scan

Does DreamSky DSR-3000 have a PID scan/search?

Have a look through the menu structure - thats an obscure receiver here in Europe, and the chances of one of our regular members having seen one let alone used one is remote.

If it does its probably somewhere in or around the manual search settings.
