Some ITV HD Channels missing (Amiko Combi)

riverbird

Hi, i have an Amiko Combi box and have had go retune some if the Free to Air channels as of late, however when I try and tune in ITV2 HD and ITV4 HD (UTV, ITVBe etc) using the new frequencies listed on RXTV/SatExpat/Lyngsat (11386H and 11386V respectively) I get a 'No Channels' message?? I also have a 2nd Freesat TV connected to the exact same Dish/LNB as the Amiko, and it can receive these channels. So Dish and LNB are aligned correctly..... Anyone else having this is issue or know how to fix it? Is it Amiko Combi specific? Cheers

Any issues with other HD channels like BBC or Channel 4?

Be aware that both of these transponders are both now DVB-S2, with Modulation = 8PSK, SR = 27500, and FEC = 2/3.

Make sure you have these correctly chosen and try again.

Thanks guys... No issues with other HD Channels... Will check the new transponder details and see if that's the issue.. Which site would have the very latest transponder frequencies? Have noticed differing frequency values between some websites for the same channels!

Either of those sites are good

KingOfSat lists them with a decimal point, e.g. 10714.25. Sites may have a 1 MHz difference in their listings, but that won't affect reception. In fact using a number a few MHz away will probably still work.

Let us know if it works out.

What satellite receiver do you have?

Basically you need to retune using the channels new parameters taken from the links provided above

I took it upon myself to try an retune in channels on my Amiko box, and while I seem to have all the channels back, the picture is no longer sharp. Perfectly viewable, but the clarity has gone. Can anyone help me with this?

There are duplicate SD and HD versions of some channels, be sure to select the HD versions if available.

Thanks, yes I did select the HD versions. Watching the rugby for example, the score in the top corner and the picture in general is a small bit blurry.

Hi,

I'm also having trouble with missing channels on this Amiko combi box. Would anyone have a download of the latest channel list that I could copy to a usb stick or know where I could get it.

Thanks.

I had this issue last year and someone here put up the new frequencies and I got them all back. Now I still have alot except all the C4, E4's and all ITV's are gone so hopefully I can get them back later with the help from here after 3 hours treacking around a busy Dublin city shopping…Ill need to rest up lol. Thanks to all who do keep us updated its much appreciated - especially this time of year when I have to hide in the house with lights off in case someone sproadically calls for a chance - eh hello its after 7pm I am in my jammies!!!
