Hi All

I have an Ariva 250 but am having problems finding Sky Sports HD 2 in any scan. I have tried both a preset scan and blind scan and still won't pick it up. I am scanning on Astra 2A. I see somebody else had a similar problem on page 127. Am I doing something silly? Any help would be much appreciated. There is one other HD movie channel that is I am not finding also. Somebody did mention to scan Astra 2B. I thought all was on 2A???

I'm pretty sure I posted something about that in this thread but I'm not sure where.

I did an extensive blind scan last night of Astra 1, 2 and Hotbird. I have set up channel lists (incl one for Sky Channels). I will post a link to it later on. Its based on the latest firmware 1.19).

This is a 120 thread btw, not a 250 thread.

I previously had a lend of a 150 . Have a 120 also.

I have a 250 since yesterday and have to say the universal remote control features are excellent. Have all my devices mapped to the keys on the ariva.

Yes, the universal remote is a great benefit. I have a blade bm7000s also and the remote looks nothing like the quality of the Ariva 250 remote.

Please let me know how your channel scan goes tonight and whether it picks up Sky Sports 2 HD or not. If it does please let me know what satelittes you are scanning and if it is a blind scan you are doing. Thanks very much

This can happen when the transfer rate to the disc is too slow.
