The strange thing is that when I am watching the sky movie channels there is never a problem... confused as Im fairly new to this. I flashed the image but used my cables and bouquet file from previous as when I first flashed the blade there were no channels found.
I am also using a signal booster. Would that be it at all?
My image should have been set to gbox as standard. If using NTL dublin the channels should have come in OK, but it can take 20mins to decode. If you only change bouquet & cables then it should be the same frequencies as mine. The frequencies are held in the services file. I found that no scan in any cables file I found could have produced the service file I use. If you replaced the service file then your old one could be different frequencies.
Also try without the booster, try it via a dvdrecorder or video. My mates argos booster is overheating and not working well. I have read others have gone through a fair few. Most seem to recommend a big yellow one on ebay, but it is ?45. Cheaper to get a nokia in the first place.

I have seen the setanta screen issue on 2 different pace boxes. You could probably get it to happen on a dreambox too. Go to setanta and mess about with your dreambox settings, 16:9 should get you the problem.

I heard it is coming soon. Dunno about galway, I imagine it could well appear on one of the old channels, I have about 8 channels at in my images/services with nothing on them.

I heard (read?) somewhere that NTL would not be carrying this channel until Jan2008, can't recall where I heard it though so it could be codswallop!
Edit: Checked this again and according to the Liverpool website, Setanta will be including this as part of their 8 channel package which means it should be available as soon as they start broadcasting (Sept). Come on the reds!!

Hi guys. I have the (Blade_Trinity_V2_Dublin_Sagem_1x) installed on my Sagem since last week. Its feezing alot on me and this morning I could only get the sky Movie channels and none of the other FTA channels. Even Sky news was freezing and chirping terribly. I had commando 6.2 and switched to this Blade image on Friday hoping it'd work. It is slightly better, but does anyone know an image that will not freeze at all on Sagem 1X in Dublin on NT£?
Really need help on this. Is anyone else having this problem on the new Blade image?

I think you can watch movies through VLC player on your laptop via dbox2. I havent tried it yet but it shouldn't be too hard to find some info on it.

Hi
i was wondering if anyone could help me regards Bouquets and undating them to get channels in order?
i everything setup and i ftp'd the proper bouquets across to the box and replaced the existing file but still the box show the channels in the order of the services.xml file but if i go into bouquets editor it says the channels are in order. and won't change them.
could someone please tell me how i go about arranging the channels properly? i'm using a Nokia DBOX2 sportster 1.7 dublin img and i'm on Dublin nt!
how do i get it to stop showing channels in the services.xml format and in the order of the bouqeuts instead?
Thanks folks any help would greatly be appricated plus if you know of any easy to use english bouqeut editors would be great
regards
Paul

If you upload a bouquets.xml you have to reboot the box or reload the channel list.

it is probably a pace box with the talkback disabled (so n*l cannot see what you are up to). then they create their own special card and it should work. My mate has one, but it did go down a few times. His 2 year old keeps pulling the card out, and that might have caused it, the guy who did it said he must never turn it off, or take the card out. It is down completely at the moment.
He has a nokia & sagem in the house too, both working fine. I have had a fair few nokias running in mates houses for about 6 months now, no updates needed, not a flicker/freeze out of them.
I have heard of N*L engineers installing starviews in people houses, arriving in the N*L van and with the uniform/jumper still on! And to top that the lads getting them installed were gardai

If there is no reboot option in the dbox button menue pulling the plug is a possibility.
Shutdown to standby is not a reboot.
You can use instead the option reload channel list in the service menue if you want.

Good to know. Do you have a dbox too? can you confirm the dbox has the dodgy screen at the same time. It is only certain matches that get the folding screen, half the time it seems fine. Somebody else said ucode 0014 fixed it, but I reckon it was just coincidence that the match broadcast after changing was OK.

Have you opened your bouquet in internet explorer?, if there is an error in the syntax it usually shows up in IE, it will have some error report as you scroll down. while in notepad/wordpad you might not notice it, can be a missing < > / etc. I think I had a dodgy bouqeut file once, and I think it just ignores it and defaults to your services file.

I think i'm about to lose my mind with these channels lists
i have tried everything mentioned but still it pays no attention to the bouquet the box just seems to arrange the channels alphbetically
starting with abc1 etc..
even if i try and manually arrange the channel in the bouquet editer and save setting after i arrange them and i go back into it 2 seconds later and it's back to the same again all sorted alphabetically.
the bouqet i'm using i use for chorus and it's fine have used it before for ntl too with no problems.
but i just can't see where it's getting the channel list from it's not the bouquet and not the services.xml
does any one have another ntl dublin bouqeqt?
thanks again for you help guys

Why do you think a bouquets.xml for ntl should work for chorus?
