AD3000IP and Freecam2 017

[onuroral]

I have an AD3000ýp and Freecam2 017, which worked perfectly on via and irde channels (as long as I had the codes of course) This weekend
I was trying to get my channels in to an order using one of the editors for AD3000. At one point I lost my via channels. Now when I reset my cam Wallbanger 3.81 says crypt OK but nothing happens. Normally I would see GO "Whatever the channel". It still works with Irde channels such as Disney Channel, so the season interface and connection is still OK. I thought I meesed up something in the frimware, so I loaded the v5.00 and updated from the sat to v7.00. still the same problem. Any ideas? Need help asap household members are about to kill me? "Don't fix it if ain't broke"
Cheers

If you haven't5 actually deleted the channels in question (I assume you haven't) then there are two possibilities that spring to mind:
1) there is a bug in the editor you are using
2) you are using a pirated registration key for Wolfgang Litzinger's "setedit" (ad3000edit). Pirated keys are detected by the editor, which then applies an offset to some frequecies when you load the settings back (thereby casuing the signals to hbe effectively lost).

So - which editor are you using?
If you have a saved file of the settings prior to your editing them, simply load that back using the Echostar loader. If you haven't saved an earlier version then you have just learned the hard way why you should have!

If you are using a hobby card rather than official subscriber card then one final possibility is that the editing is a red herring and that it is the keys that have changed. Or your card has been knocked out by some new action from the provider.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 03-Dec-01 AT 06:58 PM (GMT) by 2old4this (admin)]Thank you 2old4this. Well I was using AD3000edit in demo mode and also ad3000IP Edit v1.2.0.0. Actuallly I was using the AD3000edit for uploading and downloading it seems to be faster in that role compared to echoload2. Anyway I am still stuck. I do get the channels allright, that means I can see that I have a good reception. BUt all I get is scrambled signal warning. Which I didn't have that problem before. Wallbanger goes through it standart

Reply Cam CryptKey Ok

But gets stuck at reply cam cryptkey OK. Normally I would get the channel by now. Out of desperation I will change the chips on the season interface but I know it is not the problem, because otherwise premierworld wouldn't work. I also downloaded a fresh copy of wb 3.81 and wb 3.5.3 still the same problem. I played with the baud rate it only accpets 9600 anyway.

Thanks

Another info.
I thought about the editors messing up my .bin file, and the system, I decided to put v5.00 software on the echostar and then using the stb update replace it with the v7.00. I thought this would clear anything a bad editor would do. It should, shouldn't it. Well, now I will try also connecting the season to my notebook if anything is wrong with the desktop.

updating the firmware of the receiver does NOT "clean-up" (or even reset) the settings data. The only thing you can do in that regard is a factory reset. Then you lose all your settings, and get back only the database of satellites and transponders (no channels, faqvs,...) that is inbuilt in that firmware release.

If all the channels are still there, then it can only be a key problem. There is nothing in the settings file which could cause a "scrambled signal" message if your keys were ok.

In any event, save the file. Do a factory reset. Then scan the relevant transponder to pull in the channels in question, and try again. If no good, put back your saved file and look indeed for new keys.

Last night I changed the season's 232 and 7407 chips. Downloaded a fresh Wallbanger. Factory reset the receiver. One of them solved my problem, but I don't know which. Thank you 2old. A short question did ever you use ad3000 editor v1.2? It is free and the only thing missing is sdx and dat file import. I kinda like it myself.

Cheers

P.S. I least I survived the household uprising.

I'm not 100% sure which editor you are referring to.
Are you referring to the one created by Loek Puts?
If so, that's only for ad3000, not the viaccess model I have.
In any event, no, I've never used it in anger.
