I managed to figure out the info icon which is identical to the x2 premium and I also figured out how to name my satellites. A scan on the largest c band circular sat on the Atlantic side on an fta scan not all:
Ses 6-40.5w
TV: 130
RADIO: 47
TP: 96

I just bought this box off of E-Bay a few weeks ago and it just arrived today from China. It's the newer 2015 version with a new Novatek 78211 CPU and Rafael Tuner that claims to be one of the most sensitive tuner that you can find anywhere; -10 to -81dbm. I'm interested to try this on my 1.2M C-Band motorized dish to see how well the channels come in. I figured it wouldn't be set up for the US market, so I planned to put everything in manually.
I really appreciate you posting this thread! I'm glad to see such a small cheap little box works so well and it looks like it puts out a very nice picture!
I might post my experiences on the newer box once I have a chance to take it out of the box and dig into it. I only get home for the weekends, otherwise I would be experimenting now with this. :-)
Is this receiver still working pretty good for you? Have you tried recording with it?
Can you test different audio type? Recall rrob got one of this boxes and did have problems with AC3 dolby or AAC audio formats
Ya that looks like the same one I purchased.
I have one that I use outside for dish pointing. Mine doesn't play the AC3 audio like many others have learned. The scanning and picture quality is fine. I only paid $28 for it last Feb.
Anyone have a source for different firmware? I see no way in the menus to save a backup channel list or SW with the level in mine.
I no longer am using this receiver. I have several lying around that I don't use. The only receivers I'm using are the ones below in my signature.Quote:

The seller in China told me the receiver I bought has the latest FW, but wouldn't tell me where I could go to look for updates. I would guess that's classified information from the Chinese government. :-D
Try any channel with AC3 audio and see if there is any audio at all!
Interesting the newer models have a Novatek chipset. Mine is definitely Ali based according to the system info screens.
The first thing I did to mine was void the warranty by peeling off the plastic that covered the vent holes.
