I wonder if the problem that caused him to get banned was his box. Was it by any chance a Prosat HD? Those things have a serious glitch that messes with servers when two accounts are active at the same time. It may look like something nefarious on the user's end while it's nothing of the sort. I have no idea how that could happen, but the people running the servers should, and if they don't, it's high time they did.

If they can't, there's a simple fix - only connect to one server at a time.

I am running 2 servers/services on my box T-5 will this cause problems ? Will I get in trouble or banned? My thought was if one goes down the other may not so I am running 2 also they have a slightly different channels line up.

Yep and the older Jynxbox V2 also requests way to many CWs and will sometime activate a re-share warning. To get it to stop you have to reboot it every once in awhile.

No such issue with the dreamlink

Does this happen with a genpix skywalker, using DVBdream or SmartDVB?

Never had it happen with mine at all.
Also never used SmartDVB?

For you genpix users, you really should try Sichbo pvr.
http://sichbopvr.com/
Its free, made in Canada and blows every other dvb app away.

Sorry to hijack the thread - but do they still make genpix skywalkers - I thought he retired?

I will give it a wiz. Hopefully it works with ACamd.

I dealt withhim a lot in the past and had him do 4 of the old CW3K tuners. He changed them into Skywalker 1s and also upgraded the caps.
Months ago I wanted one repaired but never got a reply from two Emails so I presume he has stopped making them. This was after his notices went up on the web page.

The only problem that I am having is the aspect ratio on SD Dik. You are right though, it blows out the other DVB progs. Works with acamd as per my uncle Luigi.

He did not get back to me either. The caps fried on my cw4000.

CW started using cloned tuners and all the resisters and caps were non-certified. Total junk IMO.
I sold all of mine months ago.

They were junk! I still have my old reliable Skywalker 1. I keep a fan blowing on it, because I don't want it to fry. Probably stupid, but I love the thing.

The CW300 tuners are all clones not skywalker1s. Glad to hear you still got one running.
