You should check the format of the files you have recorded. If they are on a USB stick, then you should be able to load them into a PC or at least get someone to help you. I know how difficult this can be for non-techies but I have posted a thread somewhere on this forum (if it hasn't been...

Yes to all of that. But my language about FS would have been stronger than yours...)(-red)(-red

This is how I got my BBC HD channels back. Go to either non-working BBC1HD or BBCHD Then from MENU / INSTALLATION / MANUAL SCAN ensure the following is set - TP 10847 SR 23000 LNB Vertical .. DVBST DVB.S2 Mod QPSK FEC 8/9 I didn't do a scan, I just went back to the BBC HD channels & voila! :)...

erm, so they were there last night... did a channel list delete and rescan and er, there they were..... nowhere on the scan... what am I missing :confused:

recorded family guy on bbc hd last night, switched on today and all bbc hd transmissions seem dead. deleted channels from channel lists, rescanned and no bbc hd channels appear. itvhd & c4 hd all ok. anyone else lost these two bbc hd channels???

I'm curious. If your fortec star is functioning OK (with the O-zzz exception of C4HD which may or may not get fixed but probably will eventually) why are you looking for a similar box? :confused: The only possible next best thing is a SKY HD box or possibly :-rofl2 a realdigital box... hmmm...

Yes, this is definitely stop-start video on the channel. But for now, for those us with only Passions, let's welcome another HD channel. Albeit only half a video HD channel for now :confused:

For some years I have been collecting many HD transmissions that I wish to keep in their original format to play back at a later date. They are all stored on hard drives strewn around the home office. I needed to store these for future playback without losing quality. So, after much research...

i see you have 19.2 but i can't get any hd pictures from german hd sat channels. arte hd is sorely missed here.

Looking back an old manual, I see that the 2 Slot Common Interface are listed in the spec but no mention of the 2 Smart Card Interface. I'm just curious to know when this happened (my box is about 12 months old). I see Maplin no longer stock this box as a new item. One other thing is the...

I've just noticed that the FS website advertises the Passion Plus with 2 Smart Card Interface(Conax7 & X-Crypt CAS Embedded). Have I missed something here? My one certainly does not have these interfaces :confused:

Any update on this problem?

Yes, I did and those HD channels now have no picture. Prior to this, with the December update, on BBC HD the box would restart every few minutes. Now with the June update, no HD picture on those German channels. So what's the solution... anyone?

Hello, you're not being a pain, people are here to help as well as share experiences like yours :D I already had the December 2009 update in my box before I loaded in the June update. Try the December update first & make sure that's OK before proceeding with the June update. You are using the...

what footy team? didn't know we had one :D
