EDISION PRIMO IP S2 H.265 HEVC MULTISTREAM

[stel883_]

I did install DMSatFinder and only channels get detected, also Enigma2 SatFinder signal works. I will be getting a Wifi dongle to further test

The Octagon SX88+ android remote app works somewhat has anyone tried to flash octagon firmware on a edision BTW?

Probably brick the Edison if you try..

Probably brick the Edison if you try..

I tried, it's a different file format. Didn't go too far. Was going to disassemble the firmware but figured it's too much effort.

I opened a new thread in case somebody knows how to receive the Spanish DTT channels from Hispasat. I have read a lot on the internet but so far I can’t seem to find a website where I can download modified firmware for the Primo. All I find is modified firmware for the Octagon 88+.

Downloads

(but not sure if the mods. will give you what you want)

thanks lazarus... but so far not new firmware....
i hope that developers made a new realese soon with spanish dtt
greeting from canary islands!!

Can we discuss this in the new thread? :-)

Dear Friends, I just bought an Edision Primo IP S2 box, and I ran into a problem that I cannot really understand. When tuning into the T2-MI stations on 40 East I can receive a number of streams that, if not encrypted, give me perfect pictures. But then there are many streams that all give me 84% strenth with 100% quality but fail to deliver any station when scanned. That's a.o. true for many frequencies above 3700 MHz.

So my question: is this a normal phenomenon, is there something incompatible between the box and for instance the St. Petersburg streams on 3915 L transponder or is there something wrong with my sample of this box? There was a load of nonsense in the original database for this satellite so I erased all transponders and did a blind scan of my own which delivered pretty much the data Lyngsat lists with regards to these transponders. But I'm only successful in my searches for channels at 3563L, 3566L, 3589R, 3593R, 3616R, 3665L and 3685L.

I use a 3 metre Unimesh dish so there relly isn't any lack of signal as I already indicated. Is there anyone who can either confirm my experiences or indicate that there's something wrong with my receiver so I may return it as partially defective?

BTW, I do experience certain other issues, like after using the Installation menu I often seem to loose the satellite signal when I go to the to the regular channel list. Also the signal disappears when I try to add a new transponder to an already existing satellite, for instance when I wanted to add the two new Italian streams on 5 West. Another remarkable fact is that scans on 12564V and 12690V do NOT pick up any of the many radio stations, just TV although I select TV/Radio "All" when scanning these two 5 West transponders. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong but just in case... anyone with the same experiences?

PS: I just noticed that even though the searching procedure showed no radio channels on the right hand side of the screen, it appears that in the regular list these France Bleue channels are written down. Remarkably only for the 12564 V transponder, not for the 12690V. However, this could perhaps be explained by the fact that both transponders transmit the same France Bleue stations and that therefore the ones from 12690V were later on overwritten by the ones from 12564V.

Main question remains however why no programs appear when scanning active stream-transponders over 3700 MHz on 40 East.

Don't you have to activate something in the search menu for it to find multistream? Not at home so cannot check at the mo

Hallo.
At home with only 1.20m (but with the equivalent receiver Octagon SX88) I have no problem.
With a 3m antenna there may be too much signal?

 

[stephan94]

Same answer for the problems of the radios on 5 ° west.
With the SX88 no problem.

No problems on my Edison here

No problem here on my Edison Primo

@scopus
he's talking about problems with frequencies above 3700
your two examples are in 3600

.... Symbol Rates ??

Ooooppps my mistake.
Still OK above 3700. One thing, the MTS option needs turning 'ON' on an individual transponder basis to get them to scan in. Maybe that's his problem??

 

[paulvr]

No, sadly that's not the case. Initially I sort of messed around on 40 East but because the transponderlist on the Primo as it came had so many errors (there were even a number of frequencies around 1000 MHz and even much lower at the end) I decided to erase the lot and to do a blindscan for proper transponder frequencies. That went fine. Then I decided to search per transponder whereby I of course checked MTS on at each scan I did and for the frequencies mentioned it worked fine, for the other ones not. As far as too strong a signal is concerned, I doubt if that is the case because pretty much all transponders gve a very similar strength and quality reading. 3616 V is even slightly too weak so that it leads to picture disruptions. The reason why I did scan each transponder separately was in order to make sure that one Rossija-1 programme wouldn't overwrite the other because there are lots of streams with that programme in it. This way I could check one by one what each transponder brought.

As far as the radio programmes of 5 West are concerned, both 12.564 V and 12.690 V are regular transponders, not streams, so the question if I chose MTS is not relevant in this case. It's of course of much less importance because apart from some regional news all France Bleue stations carry pretty much the same programme as far as I know. I just mentioned it because it seemed somewhat remarkable, never seen before on any other receiver.

I have two smaller C-Band dishes available (180 cm Channel Master and 135 cm Triax) so later on this weekend I'll check those out but I don't really think that signal strengths between 80 and 84% can be considered to be "too strong". But who knows...? Checking is knowing.

I couldn’t receive one of the two French multi stream transponders although I had on the one I could receive a signal strength of 80% and quality 100%... solution: adjusting the skew of my LNB with a few millimeters!
You probably have checked that. But I say it because sometimes the solution lies in a small silly adjustment of your LNB

 

[paulvr]

Thanks but no: the streams on 40 East are lefthand and righthand circular polarizend C-Band signals that are independent of a skews. Skews only are relevant for linear signals. And where the French audio signals on 5 West are concerned: there a skew cannot be relevant because the TV stations on both frequencies are received perfectly well. And like I mentioned before, they aren't streams.
