Thanks rolfw. More investment and time wasted learning how to use the Matrix CAM! - As soon as I am comfortable that I can use the Matrix, i will buy it.

Hi, I have not been able to get Taquilla channels or Sexyhot on 30W since the middle of December. I am still using Xamuhs file (Fun_6in1+_24C64_Humax_Nokia_0901.hex) , as before in my Manhatten 9800. I also use Freecam 2019 (this works better than patched internal cam) Unfortunately, the...

yep, did an automatic retune for the whole satellite and the channel came up iin the clear. However, using the Manhatten 9800, I now have 3 different Ultra Blue's. Everytime i do a retune i get more channels but the obsolete ones (such as Palco on 30W) do not disappear. How do i get rid of...

Hi, ive had an official Ultra Blue card for 6 months. I havent switched it on for over a month and now the channel says "bad signal". I have had this problem before but somehow managed to clear it (either by re-tuning for another possible frequency, or by calling up my satellite dealer who says...

what a mash up! - tried to install my 18! jaeger actuator in a hurry - blagged it - went to the receiver upstairs to move my dish (and set limits to test), went back on the roof and the actuator had twisted and snapped itself! Im getting another actuator and getting a professional to do it next...

Thanks for that! Ive got nothing surrounding the dish, so it will move further (its on a flat roof). The arm that is joined onto the back of the dish is a little corroded (the dish has been there since early 90s!). But i thinks its okay to re-use. Do u recommend the Jaeger 18" acutuator, or...

Hi, I have a channel master 1m dish and my 12" actuator seems to have failed. I want to intall an 18" version (giving me a wider arc). Do i need to re-align my dish to do this? Also, is changing the actuator straight forward?

Hi, i am wishing to purchase this receiver and have noticed that u can get them Patched to receive irdeto 1+2, seca 1+2. Does this mean i can use an official Irdeto2 card (if i subscribe) in the reciver without the use of another CAM? or is this just saying that it has a Magic Cam equivalent...

May i ask what is wrong with the Echostar 3000, as i wanted to buy this model. Also, what is so good about the Techomates and which model would be the one to go for (i dont mind spending money for it, but i dont need one with a hard disk). Do i still need to buy a magic cam for this one? I...

thanks for the reply RolfW. My CAM is defintely faulty, as it doesnt work. Soory for the confusion about the software. The reason I was using the Pentamedia sofftware, was to check if it recognised the CAM. I am looking for a motorised receiver (i dont have a disecq motor). Should I get one...

Hi, i have a Pentamedia Pentavision CI sattelite card in my pc. When i put an Irdeto or Viacess card in, i can go into the CAM menus using the software supplied with the Penta CI card. However, when i put my Aston 1.03 in, the software will access the menu for about 1 second, before throwing me...

Hi, first of all I have an Aston 103 cam but i think its dead. After inserting into my receiver (Pentavision CI), the software at first registers i have a cam inserted, then the software boots out as if it is no longer inserted. Is it "DEAD"? To resolve this issue, I have had an Irdeto ALL CAM...

Cheers for the rapid reply RolfW! Would the same apply if i got the ARY sub cancelled downstairs, and then re-subscribed on my new box (id have to pay for it then ). As there would be no further connection with SKY with my fathers card, is there a minimum term before i could apply for the new...

Hi all, We currently have a sky receiver (which we stopped the sky package about 6 months back - although we still subscibe to ARY Digital (Ch812), which is an independent channel). This setup belongs to my father downstairs. We began subscibing several years back but he no longer felt that he...

Hi guys, I bought a Pentamedia Navis PCI capture card over a year ago and its the best card in my machine. Captures good quaility - and doesnt take much processor power. While capturing, im normally on the net with about 10 windows open, winamp , outlook etc - no dropped frames As for the card...
