Are they a way to load N. American Sat easily are do i have to learn how to use Filezilla again.
FileZilla or install the plugin Dream Explorer. This plugin may be found under extensions in downloadable plugins of the receiver in most images.
Thanks elbandido i haven't used Filezilla since i had a Azbox. In Filezilla is the Host the Ip and password is root what is username. and do you put satellites.xml in Enigma file
Username = Root
Password is not used on most images unless you alter it
satellites.xml resides in etc/tuxbox.
looks like i need some help i have put my satellite.xml file in etc/tuxbox using filezilla three times i tried to send it and it gives me a transfer successful every time but nothing has changed in the receiver.
Did you reboot the box after the file transfer? Which satellites.xml are you transferring?
that was it i did not reboot slowly getting there now thanks el bandido
Very good! Get used to running the box a bit, then we can add other options.
Here is the satellite file that I am using now.

Got all my c band scanned in and working great i believe this has the best picture i have seen even better then the Anaconda i had.
Vu+ has excellent picture. You may want to add ATSC terrestrial channels at some point. They work exceptionally well for mein my Vu+ receivers.
Save your settings file in etc/enignma2 after you have scanned all the satellites. Then you can transfer the antenna settings to almost any image, and also have a backup of your antenna settings.
As is or unzipped?Quote:

Unzipped. Reboot after file transfer.
Thanks EB, got it.
I have mind all set up with c-band on tuner A and Ku band on tuner B and a hard drive installed but i have a few questions.
1 how is the best way to add 1 sat amc9 ku was missing from my list.
2 how do i back up my setting to the hard drive.
A satellite file with 83W ku added is attached. Put the file in etc/tuxbox then reboot.
I will get you a working satellite editor later today, time permitting.
OpenVix has a .pdf user manual that has been uploaded to this site. It should explain how to back up settings and the entire image to the hard drive. Let me know if you cannot find it.
thanks Eb i got the sat installed with dreamset i will check out the manual.

The important thing to remember here is that the satellites.xml file like many others in enigma2 is a live system file. Just throwing it on to the box and rebooting has a fairly decent chance of failing as the file can become corrupted or overwritten by the current file in the flash at the time.
I know it's long winded and most people will say I'm talking shite but you really should place enigma to sleep via a telnet session before working with or transferring any live file to or from a E2 box, then restart the image so the changes are correctly taken up by the image.
Once you get the hang of it it's quite simple and fairly fast.
1. Open a telnet session and login to your receiver.
2. Issue the init 4 command (this exact spelling) this puts enigma to sleep.
3. Do what ever you need to, such as transferring files to or from the box in ftp.
4. When your happy issue the init 3 command to reboot enigma.
That's it job done, and zero chance of corrupting any live files in the image that may have been being used at that time.
