Hi guys,

I bought my Dreamlink HD in mid 2012. I never got around to setting it up until now (I know I know).

Anyway, I bought a 8psk board at the time, and have installed it.

However I now get no HD when scanning channels. I get 110 and 119 right now.

So do I have a bad 8psk, or some other issue?

I've gone to Lyngsat, and tried a manual scan using Turbo 8psk on the relevant transponders listed there, I scan and find the channels, but my box only outputs in SD.

I'm connected to a 1080p television using HDMI. Same HDMI cable when plugged into my subbed sat box outputs HD just fine.

If I need a new 8psk, what part number should I be looking for?

Thanks.

Does you p$ have any HD channels running at this time?. Are you aimed at 129?

Have you inserted the board properly?

No 129, only 110/119. I had assumed that HD channels were running, but perhaps not.

This actually comes in as HD. So at least I know my box is OK, must be my sub.


Have you inserted the board properly?

Yes, see above.



OK, thanks everyone, I think this has been resolved. Due to 9421 I know that my box at least functions. So it's a matter of sub carrying HD now I think.

U need a sat pointed at 129 for the HD chit, 110, 119 offer little to zero HD programing

I believe if you have the pro 1000 dish, it will pick up all 3 sats. 119, 110 & 129
