[Vipersan]

Hi friends ..
sorry if this has already been posted..but..
Providing your receiver will pull a low symbol rate channel ..
There is a new channel broadcasing on Intelsat 14 at 45.0°W

11566 H
tp UF6K RASD TV DVB-S 1852-3/4


Looks like we can once again check our dishes for alignment..beyond Hispasat

Excellent VS. I'll swing the dish round and see what we get.

 

[Llew]

Yes, fine signal on that frequency. There's some other peaks on the analyser too, will check them out (probably some feeds).

 

[Vipersan]

Good hunting Llew ..
Its a tricky little 'burger' ..
The lsr makes it difficult ..
The IPbox ...wont see it at all ..
The AZ box sees it but wont scan it in ..
The Openbox even needs a few tries to get a lock ..but eventually gets it ..
I'll post a cap up later ..if no one beats me to it ..

Just above you VS.

..beat me to it Llew ...but saved me a job ..as post processing an image with the openbox is a pain ..

..Just out of curiosity ..
has anyone ever managed to see

11675 V
tp UF10K Canal Info News DVB-S
MPEG-4 1240-2/3
at this location ..
I certainly have never managed it ..
The openbox is aware of a signal ..but it too refuses to lock it in ..
I'm guessing its a job for a skystar2 pci card ..
or some very odd receiver ..

hi vipersan --

spiderbox sees it -- sorry its a photo rather than screenshot -
not setup for captures from this box at the moment

my skystar 2 scans it in as a radio channel -
the audio can be heard but no picture is seen .

regards nelson.b.

 

[Vipersan]

Thanks for the information Nelson ..
I might well have another go at getting this channel into one of my boxes...now I know its do-able..
I suspect the best way would be to 'build' the channel rather than scan it ..
Ie ..use the advanced scan and enter the pid info ..
Maybe that will work..
..or maybe the spiderbox just allows very low symbol rates .

I posted it a couple or so years ago here -

[Vipersan]

Thanks Llew ..
Just checked the link you provided ..
..it confirms what I believed to be the problem ...the low SR ...which you also had issues with ..

[nelson_b]

hmm- yes indeed -- thanks - Llew

i wonder if its changed its video format since then ?
as my skystar 2 usualy sees 4.2.2. -- ok but not h.d
but the s.p. box will see "most" but not all - h.d but not 4.2.2.

regards nelson.b.

 

[Llew]

I've corrected the video parameters for Canal Info News in that original post - it wasn't 4:2:2 video - the Fortec Passion box I took the scan from isn't able to resolve 4:2:2 anyway..

My Hauppauge WinTV HD card finds it, but the picture either freezes, or is none-existent.

Got that no problem ............... showing a snazzy test card at the moment. Analoguesat would love it ............... but I can't do Screen Shots.

Maybe someone else can Post one up? Llew?



Good find, anyway ............... Dish appears to have survived high winds, snow, ice and generally disagreeable weather with no problem at all.

 

[Llew]

Vipersan has done just that in the Test Card section tivu

 

[Lazarus]

Ah, thanks: Odd that I missed it via "What's New" - finger trouble, I suspect!

I've just blind scanned 45W to see if there was anything else on it and found a feed for Mali TV on 11530H 5450. Both RASD and CNI are strong here, CNI upto 82% on my SS2 but the usual problems with the low SR. There's always the data on 61W if you really want to test your arc

 

[Huevos]

Vu+ symbol rate is supposed to be 2-45, but it did manage to lock it. Vantage found it blind without any problem but can't play Mpeg4.

Everybody likes that testcard - I think its the thats the third time its been posted in the tc thread

 

[Vipersan]

Doh !!
and theres me thinking I'd caught a nice new one..
