After doing some more digging appears it is a known bug on clones. Changed skin which helped a lot then changed to nab 0.12 image which completely cured it. Response time is now like sh!t of a shovel as they say.

Hi guys So I got myself a DM800 HD clone this week and I am a bit surprised at the slow response on the old remote control when opening menus moving upd down channels lists etc. Image is gemini 5.1. Just wondering if this is normal or have any tips to improve speed? Cheers

Cheers for the help guys Does it matter what brand the LNB is or are they all they same practically? I have seen thompson, MTI, Zinwell etc so is there a generally accepted better brand.

Hi guys I have a sky dish on the side of my house with sat cable running into my living room into my box where I can watch sky. I am planning on buying a Freesat box for the bedroom and my plan is to replace the single LNB on the sat with a dual/quad LNB and run a cable up to the bedroom as...

I was a complete noob to this game a few months back and managed to put a 1m dish on the side of my house (with the help of my bro and old man) and pick up all the sats I need. Dishpointer.com is a useful website to show where the sats you want are in relation to your house.

Hi guys I want to back up my DM600S as I have finally sorted all my bouqeuts. So if I dropped a major bollock and mess it up I can just set it back to where it was. I am on Gemini 4.5 so can anyone point me in the direction of a tut or guide? Cheers guys

Problem solved - it was quite a complex solution. I had put my normal sky sat cable in the back of my dreambox instead of my motorised one after I had done some dusting. So after cursing a thousand times at the 'xxxxing thing' it was my stupidity :-DOH2 The lesson here is don't allow men to...

Hi guys Well after thinking I had finished my sat setup it appears that I have now lost power to my motor. I cannot move the sat to any positions via the remote control and I have checked the LEDs which indicate power on the back of the motor and there is nothing. I am getting a picture from...

Just want to say a big thanks to everyone for helping. Got it up and running. Thanks again. No doubt I will be back again and again and again before too long :)

Thanks for the response nano. I looked at the transponder settings yesterday and changed them a bit and I seemed the signal increased for 1.0w and I think I now have a lock on it. I scanned yesterday and found around 400 idd services. I can watch the FTA channels of Canal Digital (CCTV9 etc)...

These are what I used Satman. They make sense so something must be wrong somewhere. It must be that the dish is not set up on the arc properly. I am planning to start from scratch again. :mad:

Thanks for the responses guys. Been very busy past week so not had any proper time to look at this again until this morning. Originally I couldn't get a lock on my due south sat (0.8e thor) so I swung round to 28.2e and managed to get a lock. From there I managed to find 13e and 19.2e with...

Not sure what that means Analogue means. If I am getting sky channels surely I am pointing at that dish? And the rest would fall into place? I think I am in over my head lol

Thanks for the responses guys. I am using a 1m dish and in the midlands (staffs) - postcode area is ws15 1 I just ran a scan to make sure I am looking at 28.2e and I picked up quite a few (see pic). I can view the FTA channels and the sky channels (sky sports 1 see pic etc) have been located...

Hi Guys I installed my dish at the weekend but cant get a lock onto sats. I have managed to get a fix on 28.2e - see pic below. However when I use the goto xx function to say 1w, I can't get a lock and the SNR seems to be very low. I assumed that onces I got a decent fix on one sat the rest...
