Guys Pvr is working on the new file amazing...
Gona test P$ saving...will get back to u all....
These guys are great, very detail work ! Thanx
Factory defaulted, loaded new file, hard reboot, same thing, cannot scan 119. Remember, the Jynxbox, SonicviewHD and Linkbox all are scanning it fine. I guess I'll have to wait for them to work on DPP44 combinations in the software....Quote:

When tested with standard lnbs and regular diseq switches no issues. If these minor issues are corrected Pinwheel mini is a great receiver.
I believe it's the software and the dishpro lnb. I have the triple lnb and this last 2.3 update showed no signal at all! Had to go back to 2.2. Also tried the backup and it did not save the server settings nor the wifi, although it did save the sat info.
to save the srver settings you do it from the server list menu and press EPG
Wish they would get back the shoutcast option because it's not available with the new bin :innocent: I need me some tunes ..
I second the xbmc and netflix would be nice too :)Quote:

I am using the same settings on the mini as with those other stb's and it does not scan 119. I am not going out on a limb by saying I believe it is a sw issue with the mini. The only way to exclude the sw is if someone has the same hardware and is successfully scanning 119 or 118.
Simple question, does anyone have a mini scanning all tps and channels on 119 or 118 using a dpp44 switch and a dplus lnb?
If not, at the top of my wishlist is to be able to do so!:yes:
Sorry about that I didnt realize there was a newer file than 2.2 at that time , i have loaded 2.3 and you are 100% correct the app section is completly empty now , and yes i love the tunes , Bring back the SHOUTcast please.Quote:

Would be great if we could change the channel from our device through Vlc , rather than have it sit only on one channel , Now that i have ported my box i can watch tv anywhere i go , only thing was ...i have to call home and ask someone to channel surf it for me ..lol
Just loaded the latest file 2.51 and still "no applications under app section" empty screen , but did notice youtube addition . I am running Pro version of pinwheel .
It would be nice if they fixed the EPG for north it sucks big time
I'm fine went from 2.2 to 2.3 and all the apps display fine.Quote:

I agree with daryld. I cannot buy the mini until it support DPP LNBs and DPP44 switch. Has to happen B4 I can do this thing. I think a lotta folks with HD already have the 1000.2s and it works for every other box so come on Team Pinwheel. Let's get 'er done.
So there is no way to get any info in the guide for north? Not even 2 hours worth? Is this true?
If so, that is very disappointing! I hope this is at the top of the list for this team to fix. If not, my wish is for this to become a priority very soon.
Cheers

For the north EPG it really sucks big time you might get an hour on the channel your watching and thats it the rest is blank south is great hopefully they will fix the north soon
southern EPG depends on channels being viewed as well to how well it populates. Best EPG is zap2it dot com
actually if these guys could incorporate that into the EPG instead of the ones streamed from the provider it might work better
Its running Linux so it would not be to hard for them to compile the application and use existing scripting to incorporate the channels and details into own database.Quote:

Hands down XBMC..This would put this box over the top..For 110% sure
Auto tp. I remember my pansat 2500 had that.
need to add server connection info ..as my buddys buddy can see which server is connected .. on jynxbox ...
my buddy told me thats jynxbox has very good picz quality as compaired to this box ... this issue need to fixed [2.6]
I agree DPPlus and DPP44 lnb configuration is a must for a HD box. Thanks in advance.Quote:

It would be nice if these options are addressed in the future firmware updates and I have no doubts will be one of the best receivers
Apparantly people have noted this about the SD picture too.. Pin Team please try to adjust the SD picture if you can. some people have noticed early files worked better sd quality wise. People said Hd is good. Yes plugins would be great for different things.. Good to hear they are working on youtube and xmbc which is basically the ultimate thing. Also, that under av settings the box seems to default at 1080i, it will not stick at 1080p setting. I have been corrected that this is the maximum any broadcast comes in, but i am skeptical thinking maybe the boxes ui and everything viewed on it is stuck at 1080i because of the setting being stuck at i and will not save to 1080p
what really needs to be fixed also is the channel management. for you to delete channels it is horrible.
Channel rename needed some channel name on 9000 series not correct and need to make change.
Channel Delete for singel channel
channel delete is already there
press ok on channel list
press red for all
press mark button
mark the channel(s)
delete
exit
done
done
Please test about terrible ghosting happening in sd on sony tv's. less visible in hd. Mostly around any moving object on the video, there are pixels which only appear for any sony tv. (60in). any other reciever does not have this. Overall the sd is a little bad compared to other boxes. But they're constantly releasing fixes, so I hope this message about sd quality goes through. The new file seems to fix the last posted problem about 1080p option not sticking in AV settings. This seems to be fixed with other options for video source as well so that is great!
why don't you try your tv in 720p and see if the ghosting goes away. any time you do video conversions you will lose some quality. I think with a tv that large it is just more noticeable. If that is not the problem then it is TV specific but I don't see anybody else reporting a similar issue. At the same time I can't see any manufacturer investing megabucks in a specific large screen model to troubleshoot an isolated problem
I have a 60" LG smart led tv and a pinwheel connected and I don't have that problem I would say it more of an adjustment on your tv
