    OSN Arabia HD channels

    Guys, Any update regarding how to get the OSN HD channels? I'm a premium subscriber using a dreambox 8000 HD but so far the only channels I can get are the standard ones. Did anyone manage to get HD channels without using Humax or Showtime decoders?

    OSN Arabia HD channels

    Guys, Situation here: OSN Arabia launched HD channels couple months ago with more coming soon. Question: did someone out there manage to receive those channels? Are they sort of 'locked' so that only few receivers can pick them up? I'm using a Dreambox 8000 HD but so far no HD channels can be...

    Hi everyone, I'm living in West Africa

    Hi Guys, I was able to get my 3,20m dish in place and got a lock on Astra 1 and Hotbird 13.0 But I finally opted for HB due to the channels variety. Problem is my LNB is not powerful enough and some transponders are dropping back empty. However Sky Italy, Cyfra+ and Nova are all fine with strong...

    Transponders or Issues on Nilesat 7.0W?

    sorry for the format of my post above m8. the transponders are 11958 H / 12456 V / 11411 H and 12073 H. As I said, I just have one or two channels on each of those transponders out of the total number of channels and they don't work at all! I shouldn't be able to even see them if i couldn't get...

    Transponders or Issues on Nilesat 7.0W?

    Guys, I've got a situation here. I'm on Nilesat 7W and i'm having weird issues on the showtime and JSC packages. I got strong signal (between 79% and 92% on my Dreambox 500s) but I'm having some issues in getting some transponders right. Note that i'm also using a diseqc to connect my secondary...

    Help newbee on board

    Dude, either you don't have the signal right on those channels or they're encrypted. One way to check that out: Menu-settings-service searching-manual transponder scan you need to get BLOCK and SYNC ticked. If they're both it means the signal is locked :)

    Dreambox HD

    Guys, is it possible to get HD channels on a dreambox other than the 800 series? I know the major difference is the MPEG2 / H.264 codec which is built in but is it possible to install the codec in other series such as 500S for instance? If yes, how do you do it and where can I get it?

    Can't find channel on hotbird 13.0e

    Check your symbol rate mate. it's 27500 instead of that number you got there. and leave the FEC to AUTO if you not sure. THen rescan. there is no reason that channel shouldn't appear :)

    DM500, how to delete channels and not have them reappear

    One option might be to run a scan just based on your preferred transponders instead of an automatic scan which will basically pick up all channels in the satellite including the rubbish ones. I've got a Dream 500 and I used to have the same problem. So just locate the chanels you want to watch...
