Image advice with Octagon SF 8008 4K UHD Twin 2 x tuners DVB-S2X

[lovelyperson]

Just bought and new to the Octagon SF 8008 4K UHD Twin 2 x tuners DVB-S2X.

Long read on various install and basic workings of the receiver and would appreciate a guide/link to a suitable image that will show the .dB level on screen.

Winding the clock back years I remember with the Dreambox images that showed reception detail including .dB info at the foot of the watched tv channel.

Installed at the mo is image 'OPEN ATV 7.2'........ok but very bland.

Very content with the first experience the SF 8008.

Best wishes.

You have to go into the options and choose show legacy signal stats, set this to yes then it will show dB.

Not legacy, this will show wrong data even in dB. The correct setting is Swap signal in % with signal in dB!

I may be using the wrong option, can you detail which menu I can find Swap signal in % with signal in dB?

Try this, menu setup usage & user interface settings on second page near bottom it says Show etc say yes and save BUT apparently its box dependent, green to save. The skin used can affect detail as well, You can have more than one image on box, this is with openvix and you vix skin on second press on ok.

This can be found in the OSD settings.

This can be found in the OSD settings.

Menu-System-GUI Settings-User Interface.

I have reset my openatv installation and now cannot find the setting that shows the transponder information at the very top when showing the infobars, can anyone tell me the location of the setting?

Today I found the solution
In MyMetrixLite > Other Settings ensure 'Show Extended-Info' is set to Yes.
