Just Sharing This Amiko A3 Combo

[sat-tv-fan]

Yep, it was a MPEG4 422 feed for Sky, got sound through the TV OK, but no go on the IPad player or on the PC

I am a total newbie to Spark, what's this about watching from the ipad etc ?

The Sky Feed was European Golf on 24W at 11.002v SR 15000.
Not as much 4.2.2 around these days....

You can download an app on android and Apple called Spark Player, which allows you to watch TV from your portable device. Will only work if you are connected to your network via WiFi though.

OK thanks, got it installed, any video feed breaks up with me every few secs though

OK here, try a restart.

It's only working sort of on the ipad, my Samsung Note 4 just locks up, no video at all...a restart made no difference

Apart from the stunning new Nasa UHD channel on 24.5 west there is at the moment another UHD 'feed' on Hotbird :-

Eutelsat Hot Bird 13 (13.0°E)

Fréquence: 12014 - Pol: H - SR: 30000 - FEC: 5/6

Catégorie: Concert

Transmis en: MPEG-4

Infos: Opera RAI taped UHD-4KFTA S2-8PSK-Pilot-on

The A3 seems to find and decode just about any UHD feed

Box has kept on crashing, 4 times or more then it wiped user data and cache resulting in a complete new installation, damn !

Never had this problem, even with the old A3, well not yet anyway. Have you updated the firmware?

No, it's got the latest firmware on it, it does seems to take longer to boot if the last channel was a UHD one. All is well for now....recording on a USB 3.0 2TB drive is a bit hit and miss also I noticed, same with a USB stick

 

[sat-tv-fan]

I do like the fact if you do a rescan channels already found appear in red...

 

[sat-tv-fan]

There was a way to improve the video quality before the crashes, now I can't find this option, anyone know what I mean ?

 

[sat-tv-fan]

This is weird I have lost various apps also, XBNC has gone etc...Scopus you had the latest fw installed I guess ?

No, I went to the updater in the apps and their was a new version to download.

Which is 1.35 ? Do you see an option to change video setting to vivid ?

What apps do you see by default ?

Yes now on 1.35, my box arrived with 1.34. XBMC is certainly on my default list, many others too. I would try a factory reset then it should default back, giving back the default apps.

Nope it did'nt do this, still missing apps

 

[sat-tv-fan]

Is there any way to go back to 1.0.34 ?

Yep, go to the updater app and it should be in the beta section.
