    Can anyone recommend a combo receiver that will broadcast in 4k and come with all channels pre programmed for Saorview and FTA.


    Currently have a zgemma h2h with saorview and fta but cant get a decent channel list.

    No is the answer. The choice of boxes and images is endless. In your case the best option would be to get a Zgemma H7 and configure it yourself. I have a zgemma h7 set up and it does exactly what you need but it took time. For saorview you need to tune in the transmitter at your location and frequencies are different all over the country.

    There are very few 4K broadcasts and I have tuned in the demo channels on 28east. This is what I did.

    1. Flashed image openatv6.4. 2. Installed skin by KIDDAC gives a sky look. 3. Set up a list of bouquets. 4. Downloaded a few plugins to get EPG 5.Tweaked bouquets to get RTE/BBC together. 6. Fitted a 120 GB SSD as opposed to a HDD. 7. Video settings so that TV switches to correct resolution when moving say from HD to UHD. This gives a black screen but I don't mind. 8. I have it set up for AERTEL as well.

    Box can do other things as well like play back 4K recordings etc. It took a few hours to set it up.

    If you go to satworld.ie they do the box with HDD and they load software, epg etc so give them a go.

    here are a few pics. but they are hopeless resolution too low.

    I can send them as a compressed file ie winrar but would need an email address. You would need to re tune saorview depending on your location.

    You need to tune in the sd channel. Here are the details.

    11914H, 27500, 5/6, dvb-s-qpsk, I use signal finder as I then know I have signal!! then scan and a load of channels will come up, scroll until you see rte one, select that, you will have a black screen but press text and voila. I then move that channel to saorview bouquet and have it at top.
