    i had to do the same a few months ago, all going ok now.

    using the latest OpenAZBox PLi image. a few little problems but generally works well. i even got it to record 4 channels from the same transponder and tuner at the same time and it didn't crash. they were free to air channels but i thought it was good going.

    openrsi have a new modified version of this image with the cardreader working but my card is in my dm500 so i don't think i'll bother changing for the moment.

    wouldn't mind being able to use the webtv function that i have on the dm500 for live streaming to the pc. i've tried it a few times using vlc but never got it going. anyone know a handy way of making this work?

    Is that OpenRSI 3.0 kernel 3.3.1 ( new drivers and kernel)?

    I have Premium HD and was wondering if it is safe to try this.

    i'm using the latest image (open azbox mod release 2) and it uses the same drivers and kernel as the openrsi 3 image. i've had no problems so far.

    use azup227 to update the image so you dont have any problems with mismatch of kernel's as some recent images were using kernel 3.3.5.

    image is stable, runs cross epg and cooltv guide, records ok and runs the softcam ok. the odd sound problem but that is in all the enigma2 images as far as i know.

    the few things that haven't got working are timeshift and the webtv in the webinterface but these are minor issues. i use it daily and i've no major problems. i'm using it on 2 different premium plus boxes.

    Probably not just related to AZBOX but since thats what i'm using, i'll ask here.

    I used to be able to recieve most Sky IT sports/ Calcio/primafila, incl HD.
    a while back they changed the transmission to DVB-S2 8psk 29990 for HD and DVB-s qpsk 29990 for SD channels. Most of these i can no longer pick up. i'm in the west of the country.

    Is this a known signal c overage problem with these channel changes? will simply getting a bigger dish solve it?

    Hi I am in Kerry and have no problem with them using a 90cm dish so I would think that it will not be a dish problem and I have a friend who gets sly it on a smaller dish.

    How to you change the Audio stream?
    It used to be mapped to the yellow button on my remote with the old image I had - OpenRSI, but now that I have loaded the OpenAZBox PLi image I can seem to find the key.

    Just went from my Elite with 1.7 to the latest OpenRsi image on the prem+.

    Hi guys,

    Not sure if many / any of you are using original fw on your azbox's but if so i have a query in relation to Morsers getepg.
    I manually load a weeks sky epg via a ./getepg command which takes about five mins but works well.
    The issue i have is if for any reason i need to perform a reboot the downloaded epg data in skyuk.epg and all_channel.dat do not reload.

    Is there a command that might reload the allready downloaded data from these files?

    This would save me having to start from scratch and download the full 7 days of data again.

    I have Priority Manager Plugin installed and think adding a command in the PriorityManager reload_tv.sh file could be the solution?

    Any help appreciated.

    Cheers

    I have noticed this somtimes too, maybe the frequency of the tp you are adding is allready in the tp list or else one with a very close frequency?
    If there is a similar tp frequency allready in place and you dont need it then delete that tp and try adding the new one again, this has worked for me.
    If you want to use the same frequency but different fec polarity etc then they can all be edited (except frequency) in "advanced scan"
    Best of luck

    Hi guys your my last resort to solve my problem with my AZBox Premium HD. I got the box stuck on boot, but have managed to recover it again, the problem that I have is there is no signal going to the TV from the box, I have tried everything HDMI, Scart, Composite and still nothing. I feel that i my have dislodged something in the innards of the box, as I had to connect to it to recover it from the crash.
    The VFD is working and I can see from it that the patch has loaded ok, as it is showing settings, which is right and I can change the resolution of the picture and the method of sending the signal from the box to the TV.

    I am hoping that someone else has come across this problem before and might have a cure for me. I even left the box for months like this and hoped that be some miracle it would work when I turned it on again, but nothing is happening still. I even went to the expense of buying one of the Amiko Ailen 2 boxes, but it is not any great use to me as the picture breaks up too much on the share, which I know is working right as a friend of mine has the same one and his box is working fine, and i have been forced to go back to my very old, but reliable, DMM 500s, which has a very stable picture on the same share.

    Thanks to everyone who takes the time to read this and who considers my plight. If I cannot find an answer here then I am afraid I will have to send the box back to Portugal to have it repaired, the postage alone is bloody ridicules, let alone what they will charge for the fixing of the box.

    Best regards Wez

    Suggestion seems to be possible damage to a board, loss of LNB power.


  • Registered Users Posts: 96 ✭✭kerrywez



    Many thanks mate, but my problem is that the box is not sending any signal to the TV, I cannot even see the boot screen or anything. It has something to do with the modulation from the box to the TV. I loaded the Spaze 2.2 image onto the box and it is there OK, even went into the setup helper thingy, but the only place I could see it is on the front of the box. Loading any image is handy enough and I do have the box sending, or rather that should be trying, to send anything to the TV in the HDMI format, a HDMI cable from the box to the TV and the TV on HDMI input. At the moment I am not bothered about the box getting anything from the LNB, my problem is between the box and the TV.

    Thanks again and best regards Wez

    Hi jimmyjim11 thanks for that, but there is no point in my putting that, or any other image on the box, as it is. I have been looking at the cost of sending it for repair and to be honest it is hardly wort the expense, €40 to an post to send it there, be about the same return and what ever it would cost to have the repair done, too much for me I feel.

    Best regards Wez

    http://en.azbox-hd.com/accesorios Postage is expensive but try other german suppliers, there may be cheaper delivery rates.

    https://www.hm-sat-shop.de/checkout.html Hope you know a bit of German :)

    Not sure about universals, there is a free windows remote for pc and a paid android app for smartphones as well for €1.50 or so.

    is that not a really old image at this stage? I use OAM² HD on my elite and the latest OPenRSI on the Prem+ and they are both fine. I think the OAM² HD is a bit quicker changing channel.

    Hi Rogerthis, no luck I'm afraid. Brought it to SatCity in Limerick, they thought they could fix it, got parts in an all but when they sorted the PSU found other faults on the main board they couldn't fix. So dead Azbox...

    Got a Gigablue HD800 UE from world-of-satellite, very happy with it, running OpenVIX on it.
    Excellent replacement for the Azbox. Cost ~200 using Parcel Motel for delivery..

    I did try ebay but nobody was selling a PSU for Elite HD. I tried emailing anyone I could find that sell Azbox STB's. The only site to get back was hm-sat.de, who pass me on to their supplier impex-sat.de. impex-sat said it was €19 + vat and delivery. I haven't ordered it yet, waiting for them to get back.

    hi guys sorry to bring up an old thread but i bought an azbox premium hd+ this week and am having terrible trouble setting up a diseqc motor (tm2600) to work with it. its my first motorised install and my first e2 receiver, I have set the dish up on my motor according to the instructions and it follows the arc fine when i move it via my installation meter so i think its ok, i set it up on thor 0.8w with motor in 0 positition and seems to work fine but 2 days trying to get it on box with no luck. image on box says openrsi 3.0
    any advice really appreciated.

    Have you put your decimal coordinates into the box? First thing you need to do is to make sure that you exact latitude and longitude are put in the box, set the DISEQC to usals, if you have it set to 1.2 then you will need to set the position for every satellite manually adn save each one before moving on to the next one. Where are you living, as the sat you set up on should be close to your longitude, I am close to 9.087 W and should set my dish up on 8W, to set my motor to 0 degrees. The position that really suits Thor is really only any good if you live on the Greenwich Meridian, 0 degrees, this is because Thor is at .8 of a degree west. I hope this helps yo some little bit, if not then post again and I will try to help all I can.

    Regards Wez


  • Registered Users Posts: 139 ✭✭installer


    hi wes thanks for the reply. i thought aim for due south was the way to go but perhaps not. ya i live in athenry and the lat long for here when googled are 8.74w 53.3n i put them in with usals selected but had no luck, ive tried so many combinations and permutations at this point im totally lost. i think i need to start over from scratch following a clear plan of action. i did use diseqc 1.2 at 1 stage and moved dish manually via east west buttons on remote but after powering down the box they were all lost. :(

    what do you reckon i should do?
    i spent quite a bit of time and effort getting the pole plumb in both axis so this is right, its just the receiver settings i think that are messed up.
    cheers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 96 ✭✭kerrywez


    All is not lost mate, strictly speaking you should be able to set the system up on any satellite you like. I would suggest that you use usals, enter your lat and long, send the dish to 5 West and use one of the French channels, they send a good signal, say Eutelsat 5 West A 11591.00 V DVB-S QPSK 29950 7/8. Now the motor will send the dish to where it thinks the satellite will be, but because the dish has not been set up, you must slacken the motor clamps and move the dish and peak the signal on that satellite and the above frequency, which by the way is the French free to air channels. When you have the dish set to maximise the signal quality, strength is of little interest, quality is the more important, lock the dish and you should then be able to get any satellite that you size of dish will allow and as long as it is above the horizon.

    Hope all the above is plain enough for you to follow, but if you have any further problems let me know, sorry about the delay in replying had a phone call and am watching a show about what is in dog food.

    Regards Wez

    hi again, i did that this evening, told receiver to point to 28.2 wasnt in right position so loosened the motor to pole bolts and tried to find awstra 28 but wasnt there, obviously elevation was off then, funny thing is when i use my meter to move the dish all sats come up fine. could it be firmware problem in receiver. I noticed youtube button on remote does nothing, or does the www button.?


  • Registered Users Posts: 96 ✭✭kerrywez


    Hi again, I take it you have the box connected to the net, either by wifi or an Ethernet cable, if so then try and update the software on the internet. Failing that you might want to download an E2 image, for the box and use the USB to update the box. Have a look here http://www.openrsi.org/openrsi/downloads/downloads-azbox-rsi3/ and it might be of some help to you mate. I have not been using my box for some time now and it is really surprising how soon you forget what to do and of course you get behind in what is the latest images for the box. You could also try here for the latest image for your box http://www.satpimps.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?602-AzBox-HD-E2-Images to download any of the images you will ned to register with them. Hope some of this will help you.

    As for the elevation and declination yo would need to look at your motor documentation to see what it should be. You will be surprised that with the dish near enough due south, you will think that it is not tilted back far enough, but it will be, in fact it needs to be fairly straight when it is at the due south satellite, the mount will tilt the dish as it turns, this is to keep it on line with the arc of the satellites.

    Best regards Wez

    thats great help wez thanks, il spend a few hours at it tomorrow again, i think i may have a clone is the firmwares clone safe do ya know?


  • Registered Users Posts: 96 ✭✭kerrywez


    I should think that a clone would be OK with the firmware. Some time ago, a few years now, one of the image makers included a piece with their update which stopped the old Dreambox 500s from working, but I have not heard of any such for the AZBox. Keep me updated with your progress, I am sure you will get there in the end up. when I was using my box I used the Spaze, pronounced Space, but seems they have not supplied any updates. See this thread for some details and suggestions http://www.satpimps.co.uk/showthread.php?162774-Spaze-Alternative&

    Good luck with it and as I said you will get there in the end, Enigma is a bit strange when you just start out with it, but practice makes perfect.

    Best regards Wez

    Well installer how are things going now mate? Hope you got the dish set before the weather closes in on us, here, in west Kerry, it is starting to blow a bit, but around tea time it was really going it well, but not as strong now.

    Regards Wez

    Setanta usually use 7 or 10 East and are sometimes encrypted. I had a look at the transponders they have used before but no sign of life yet.

    Well been laid up with the flu the past 3 days and haven't been able to get near the dish as yet. Feeling a bit better today so maybe have another bash at it tomor. My plan is to do as you suggested wez and try for 5w just to confirm the procedure is it as follows.
    1) set motor to 0 position. Install dish to motor as per instructions that came with motor ie elevation angle etc. line up lnb arm so it points exactly same as 0 on motor ( looking from behind dish ) then adjust the whole assembly to face as close to due south as possible.
    2) enter coordinates in azbox under usals setting then through box menu tell the motor to goto 5w position. When motor rests manually adjust motor/dish assembly until signal is acquired on 5w.
    3) am I right in thinking there is no 3. ?
    Should it be as simple as that? I have a professional meter so should be easy enough I would've thought,

    Openrsi with kernel 3.3.1 is working well on my premium pluses. Still not perfect but better than the upc box we have which takes about 3 minutes to boot and freezes regularly.

    OpenRSI-3.0-azboxhd-20130803 is the most recent one as far as I know.
