OCTAGON SX88 H.265 HEVC HD

[mikeisyou]

Would you say it's just a poor signal meter reading on it or is the tuner actually quite weak too?
When you were dropping signal on Badr 26 did you try another box?

The tuner I would say is really sensitive, I'm now able to watch more channels on the weaker satellites like Badr and Nilesat but I don't know how much is down to the new coax cable I've laid down and I can't compare boxes properly because my Spiderbox 7000HD has gone a bit faulty.

I was doing a blindscan on 21.6e the other day on the SX88+ and it took a good 30/40 minutes to complete. The channels I did scan in were really weak in signal (because of the beam they're on) so I think this was partly the issue. The quickest blindscan I've seen it do is 19.2e in about 4 minutes.

Sounds really good for the money!

You got that WF125 sorted in the end then?

I had to cut the side of the cable for the connector to fit on, I'm still on the lookout for the right connectors but it'll do for now, thanks for your help.

I've added some more bugs/improvements to my spreadsheet list, feel free to have a look

More bugs:

Flickering picture of some channels, the problem is more noticable when theres on-screen graphics -

(Bein Sports News HD on Nilesat)
Unable to Record any channel to memory stick of 16gb formatted in NTFS and also in FAT32, I've also tried both USB ports.

Is that the SX88+ you have or have you had a SX88 as well?

I am not upto date here, what's this about the SX88 + ?

I am not upto date here, what's this about the SX88 + ?

The + model was released very recently, with a new chipset that supports DD+ Audio, in response to reviews and feedback from users of the original model.

We have a dedicated Topic for it in the same sub-Forum.

I will wait for the modification of the Quality Signal in dB that has received a favorable response from Octagon on facebook

As it looks like a total channel list rebuild with upgrades after the latest upgrade advised by stephan94 post in #710 of this thread

Upgraded my box without losing any settings as regards to channels, and user settings. Perhaps Stephen just meant the Stalker TV back up???

Hello
I just redo the Update, but with another USB, this time it worked.
As said scopus, it works but be careful.
This is the first time I have this kind of problem.
