I have an AD3000IP Viaccess box with the following problems.
I keep having my channel listing corrupted with channel names respelled using some weird characters. This is the same for my favourite list. The only way to get back the original channel names is to redo a channel auto-search. But then the next time I turn off and on the IRD the channels would get gradually corrupted again. I do not use SetEdit (yet).
Also, and a weekly basis, when I try to move to another satellite, I hear three clicks from the receiver and the receiver moves to the other satellite but not the dish. If I then try to move the dish from the satellite setup I will get Motor Error for both East and West. The only way to make the thing work again is to turn off the IRD for a few hours before it starts working again. However, the IRD will then make my East West limit narrower meaning that if my East limit is 1000 it will change to 1250 with the West limit remaining unchanged. I need then to reposition the satellites. I don't think it is a heat problem as it sometimes happens just after I turn on the receiver. I use the IRD no more than 3 hours a day. As I said, it has been happening weekly since I bought the receiver 4-5 weeks ago.
I was hoping that the firmware upgrade would solve the problem. I upgraded to version 120 and from the first restart, I get corrupted channels. I haven't yet had the dish error but it doesn't mean anything as the upgrade was only made yesteday.
Anybody familiar with these problems or do I have a faulty unit?
