Check which rom10 and rom11 files are left over at your box.
Mgcamd ignore the the rom10 and rom11 updates. Evocamd is doing stupid things if all rom10 and rom11 files are present and the au mode is set to 01.
Is 2.14b. a recebt enough version of evocamd?

Its the latest version but the rom10/rom11 problem is not solved.
Delete the rom10/rom11 files or change the au option to A: { 02 } in camd_cfg.

what settings do you use?

If in dublin with a sagem (or even nokia) try testing the image on uk tv gold 2, it is the worst channel for freezing for me. Had a nokia with commando 10 & 11 disabled, ucode 001A and evocam and it was freezing, changed to mgcam and it stopped, though I only watched for about 40mins more.

blade with 10&11 deleted seems alright ok on evocam and gbox, 001A. but it still froze on UKTVG2. on gbox the screen goes blank, on evocam it freezes and sorts itself out after the same length of time.

The night before other channels went black for a split second on gbox, on evocam only UKTVG2 froze.

Commando 8.2 froze on UKTVG2 on my sagem 1x and 2x. didnt give it long enough on the others to know.

Do a scan via the irish cables.xml and select Ntl cable Dublin.
If that doesn't cure the problem there is a problem with the signal strength.

I'm the same...Commando 6 seems to work fine, but 8.2 freezes every 30 -40 minutes, using both evocamd and mg, with 10 & 11 disabled.
changed A: { 02 } in camd_cfg.
Usding evocamd 2.14...

NTL cable dublin used to work very well for me, in the past month or 2 if I try it I sometimes get nothing at all, or just maybe 1/4 the channels. NTL BF IE works better, though last time I tried it the frequencies were all a little different than the service file I normally use, and as bad if not worse. My mate has a signal booster that didnt do much. Nokias work fine.

It looks like UPC is playing with the cable network in your area.
Maybe you get now a different signal strength then the weeks ago.

hi, been reading all the replies with great interest as I have a couple of boxes which do absolutely nothing else other than chirp and then crash, making me reboot...i've tried a few different images but have got some more ideas and names of images to try from this thread. i understand NTL signal is shit with certain channels (uktv gold, bbc news , channel 6 are particularly bad on dbox and regular NTL box), but in short, is there an image i can use for the sagem1x box version that will mean they won't chirp and stutter and then freeze? it's driving me mad.

simply what is the best image for sagem 1x, that avoids the freezing/chirping problem?

i don't mind missing some channels but having to restart every 14 seconds is a pain in the arse.

thanks.

Have NTL changed their key again?
Can't get any of the stations now. Was working fine for 3 days thanks to the info in this thread and now my dbox2 won't decrypt any of the stations. MGCAM does sweet fa too.

If I still had a 1 chip sagem I could tell you, but mine is currently a 2x, using sportster no cirps and perfect picture...

If anybody is in a position to email me with some images could you PM. I would be grateful. Digitalworldz have what I'm looking for but have to post 20 and takes 10 days. Thanks in advance.

A image cannot solve signal problems. If a cable signal is too weak its simply too weak.
A other image can solve the problem with the enx chip for some sagems.
A image with gbox emu is currently the best solution for such sagems.
Either a JtG image with gbox or a blade image.

blade with 10&11 deleted seems alright ok on evocam and gbox, 001A. but it still froze on UKTVG2. on gbox the screen goes blank, on evocam it freezes and sorts itself out after the same length of time.

Blade on the 2x sagem with evocam was freezing a lot yesterday, switched back to gbox and had no probs. Changed the 1x to gbox without prior testing of evocam, but gbox gave no problems.

Only problem with both is still UKTVG2 which does ocassionally freeze, I only look at it for testing anyway so it doesnt bother me, nothing but repeats of top gear!

Maybe there is currently a technical problem with UKTVG2. It s not always the box.

I understand there is a problem with the signal. I can see it sometimes on my regular NTL box. What I was actually asking if there was an image that would stop the Dbox chirping and crashing when it happened.

The reason for chirping can be either a signal problem or a problem with the enx chip.
A image cannot solve signal problems. If the signal is too weak you need an booster and if the signal is too strong an attenuator.
If the reason is a problem with the enx chip a other ucode version or a image with enabled gbox emu can solve the problem.
