Dear Steven and others, Sorry I remained silent over de past 2 months due to illness, now all is more or less OK. Just unusual tiredness.... Following up my initial report: the .67 software seemed to give a bit more leeway when it came to getting a few more channels to be stored. But I was...

Thank you for your reply Steven! Perhaps I didn't pose my question correctly, I do not mean for anyone to check all 15.000 possible channels that can be stored. But given the fact that this receiver makes such beautifully fast scans I can hardly imagine that everybody doing a scan of Hotbird and...

I never did this before, but I would very much like to invite people who read this to contact me, my email address is satmediaconsult (at) gmail (dot) com - the words between ( ) are of course to avoid spammers, should mean @ in the first and . at the second parenthesis, because I also would...

Sounds great that they are working on the software, I had already given up. However, why did absolutely NO ONE reply to my question about the number of channels one can store? According to the manual and the outside of the box the Primo S2 IP can store 15.000 channels but I never got any...

Given the fact that for my three primo IP S2 receivers that I bought over the past months I cannot get any answers about how to properly enter an m3u file into the receiver and why the memories can only hold somewhere between 3500 and 4000 radio and TV stations instead of the 15000 that are...

Could you please tell me what a modified .62 software entails, Steven?

Hi, I am using two Edision primo IP S2 receivers since about 4 months or so. The main reason is for me the T2-MI reception on 40 and 53 East (C-Band) plus all other streams that now are present at C-Band like on 10 degrees East while on Ku-Band (separate dish) the French, Italian and other...

Yes, I did both, but to no avail, thank you. Amazon Germany is shipping a replacement. The fact that others mention having no problems in receiving 40 East without the latest software (it just came out) would indicate that a software update isn't the most likely solution, but yes I tried...

Thanks for this information and the trouble you took to show this information. But like I said, there must be some kind of fault in the Edision receiver. I get all the things you show via both dishes but the receiver hardly recognizes any broadcasts in most streams. And I have an amazing number...

Remembering the early "good old days", the time of the early 80's when there were just three Ku-Band satellites one could see. 27,5 West with Première and Mirror Vision, British pay tv channels that initially weren't encrypted because almost no one had a satellite dish, Eutelsat 1, since then...

Hi, I guess you overlooked the first part of my post above yours. I no longer used the AVCOMM for the exact reason you stated: the need to adjust for skewing positions. Logical because the polarizer "barrel" has a rectangular opening. Like the owner of AVComm told me, it never was created to...

Scopus: perhaps you are using a dialectricum for circular polarization? In that case you are right because you most likely use a rectangular entry to the LNB part itself. I am using stubs in the round feedhorn attached to my Zinwell LNB which has an equally round entry. Nothing square anywhere...

PS: one disappointing message: I was so happy that writing the settings with E-channelizer worked. But I was wrong. Even though the computer screen told me that the changes had been made and also the fact that the Edision rebooted, I now see that all the duplicates I removed from the first...

Like I said, I'd try using a smaller dih, the 180 cm Channel Master offset to be precise. Reception of course was notably weaker, but eventually after much trying in vain I did capture two frequencies above 3700. To be precise: 3740 V (TV KBR, now broadcasting Mir24) and 3743 V (ORT). Both just...

Thanks but no: the streams on 40 East are lefthand and righthand circular polarizend C-Band signals that are independent of a skews. Skews only are relevant for linear signals. And where the French audio signals on 5 West are concerned: there a skew cannot be relevant because the TV stations on...
