XBMC would be the best!
as posted elsewhere, the guide needs work. Very poor with very few channels showing any guide info.
How about add a fan? Not sounds too good that the box runs hot. Heat is the big killer of electronics. And I hate kludge up the whole show with external crap. Needs to come up with a good working solution to heat problem. Good thing I not buy one yet. I would be cursing it out. Needs a lot more development right now. EPG is a major item in my book along with DP LNB support. My money currently burning holes in my pockets waiting to see how this goes. I want one, but it has to be user friendly.
It has an amazing picture in 1080p@60Mhz
DiSEqC switch settings can use some work
overall the receiver is user friendly and very easy to setup
it don't run that hot as others have said, about the same as my jynxbox
Its a great receiver so far, Thanks Pinwheel
Due to linux
Diseqc 1 = a
2= b
3 = c
4 = d
Dont find it running that hot, had limesat air, that was hot, hot to the point of rebooting it self
I like the way the switch is set...a b c d
Really cool !
Little stuff like 1/2/3/4 A/B/C/D is nothing to sweat. I am more worried about the bigger issues.
EPG is a much bigger issue. DPro LNB support much bigger issue.
Bet u they ll get it going...guys have done wonders...lets keep fingers crossed !
Pinwheel HD : new files have been released! please test and provide feedback!
Please add Diseqc settings under Motor section , this week of testing has produced many unwanted bugs and resets . I have an invacom lnbf that has Linear and circular outputs ( dual) I seperate my Linear and circular feeds with diseq switch port one circular and port 4 linear , and under motor screen there is no option to set this before scanning , if i go back into anntenna settings there is no option of the setup motor sats to appear for me to make the adjustments , and if changed the motor / antenna communications are confused and the motor wont move . Just a thought , but you Pinwheel team are heading in a good direction .
Please add option for short name / Long name for scans , as many other teams have better luck with EEPG on short name
Guys tried new file and wow guide populates in a few minutes after siting it either on 200 or 239 !
This Team is doing an amazing job, what a future i see !!
Dpro fixed
Epg fixed
Now waiting for pvr bug to be fixed and then seems like we have a rock solid box
Dreamlink and jynx are heading for ebay for sale
since this is a wishlist thread ..I would like to see a little box on info screen .perhaps beside mp4/mp2 square , showing a symbol of which server you are on ..eg. S1 / s2 or P for publix server . rather than going into server screen and shutting on or off each time there is an outage .
also an option in the epg Guide menu to select a channel and have it visible when keying it in . and having the option to go to that channel within the guide screen .
Love that you guys are updating this so frequently. Thanks for the support! It's a great little box. One thing that would be really great is if the server info and keys didn't get wiped every time you update the firmware. They're kind of a drag to type in each time. Keep up the great work. Thanks!
would like to see more channels under iptv, channels from europe e.g eurosports 1, 2, some bbc channels and definitely channel finding option
try to add xbmc too, if they add this super media center lots gonna buy this box all in one package
plz add Bt sports, euro sports, ten sports, sky sports under iptv
two things that should be added are:
- server you are connected to should appear in info
- server setup is fine the way it is but there should be a shortcut to turn them on and off
with this being an open source box, users should be able to open up and modify the software to their liking. so release a software editor.
oh, and fix the EPG
I don't think it is really an open source box. Sure it linux based and the OS is open source but that doesn't mean the software running on it is
This box seems to have the same issues as the Jynxbox when it comes to using a DPP44 switch. It does not effectively scan/register all tp's. When manually scanning, even though it picks up the tp, it shows no signal when going to that channel. I believe this is all software related and hopefully itwill be worked out soon....my wish... :yes:
you are the first I seem with this complaint... think maybe you should be checking out cables and connectors
What I've ended up doing for him is factory defaulting several times and doing a hard reboot (in this case, unplugging the stb.) I then reloaded the file.119 then scanned most tp's, thorough with 110 and 91. He'll watch over the next couple of days and report back.
Has anyone found a way to scan one sat at a time? If not, I would add that to my wish list.
your answer awaits .. http://www.satfix.net/showthread.php...757#post982757
Nostradamus, sorry. When I hook up an other stb everything works as it should. It is only this mini. It seems to read 110 as 119, even though the order and settings are correct. I got it to scan correctly exactly one time as a single sat, but when you add sats it then screws up and adds double channels. It is not right. What is throwing me off is any other stb connected to the line with the same settings works fine, scans fine, etc.
Thanks ftaforme, I agree. I have definitely been around for a while and this thing has me stumped. I cannot get it to reliably scan 119, no matter what I do. I have scanned and defaulted many many times and it has scanned 110 almost every time. Twice it scanned 119, with the same settings, the same everything, and I am copying exactly everything every time. The settings work perfectly for three other stb's on 119, just not on the mini, so hopefully the right people are reading the wish list and see it is an issue.
are you getting a lock on satellite before scanning?
the way my buddy did it was like this ...
factory default
antenna setings
set up sat 110 put it on transponder 12224 to get a lock .. save setting
set up sat 119 put it on transponder 12297 to get a lock .. save setting
set up sat 129 put it on transponder 12676 to get a lock .. save setting
exit
from main menu select
channel scan / tuner=all, network=disable
press blue button and wait
On tp 12297 it locks on 110, or at least it says it's 110. When I get it to lock onto 119 it actually is scanning 110. You know I've been around this hobby for a while, but really, this has got me very confused...it has to be sw since the other stb's all work perfectly on the same line, same settings, etc. This box does nee the ability to scan single sats, one at a time, though. It doesn't seem to do that.....
near as I know you can scan individual sats from the antenna setup by pressing blue button
The problem is that you can do one satellite, but when you go to scan the next one the stb rescans the original plus the new one. If you have, say, three satellites and scan them one at a time you will have three channels of the first one you scanned, two of the second sat scanned and one of the last one scanned.
