BBCi and ITVi streams with an Humax iCord

    Calling any Humax iCord users

    I have just installed my new iCord(320 Gb) receiver and I have a question regarding the 7 BBCi streams on 12441.00 V, ITVi Stream 2 on 10832.00 H, ITVi Stream 3 on 11052.75 H - I have been unable to find or display these streams (The 2 BBCi streams on 11954.00 H display without any problem). The BBCi streams will be carrying feeds from the Beijing Olympics from next friday and I would be very dissapointed if this hi-tech receiver could could not display the streams.
    My previous receivers, a Manhattan Plaza and Visiosat receivers were able to display the streams as TV channels without problem. Is this a bug with the iCord receiver?
    (I may have to dust down my old low-tech Manhattan before Friday).

    Also is there anywhere in the iCord receiver that the PID information for a channel can be found?
    (Again the old receivers would display the PID info at each channel change)

    Trying a manual search and enter the PIDs directly from either Lyngsat or Satcodx.

    With the iCord receiver there is no place to enter the PIDs etc. during a all-transponder or single-transponder search, it is not even possible to view the PID information for the stored channels.

    For such a hi-tech HD-Twin Tuner-320 Gb PVR sat receiver it is missing some very basic settings.

    What about the channel editor?

    Yes I have tried the Uniformula channel editor but there is still some bugs with the importing and exporting of the channel lists via usb key drive.

    Hallo "The Cush",
    did you ever find a solution to the problem of the missing "streams" channels?
    I have just bought an icord here in Germany and have exactly the same problem with transponder 12441V on Astra 28,2.

    Yes the import/export problem was solved with firmware update GXLSCI 1.00.13.

    I use the Uniformula channel editor to manually add the channels on a pc and import the channel list into the iCord via a USB key.
