I edited my sat and channel list....55 sats...loaded it back and it won't let me "check" any of the sats so I can use them. Any ideas. In her words on the screen in sat list yo can't put a check mark by any of the sats ...so no usable sats. apprecate any help.

This is the most complicated channel editor I have ever used and seemed likely to crash the unit. I have just edited my channels and satellites manually as added and frequently save a new backup file.

I tried the program when it first came out with the Aug FW. My PC runs Win7 and even with following the instructions exactly, it doesn't allow me to save a file I can use. For me, the program closes itself at the end with a corrupted file that it cannot reload. The file size appears incorrect also.

I like that feature that gives you options for the RCU. Most other brands keep the SDK to themselves to tweak the FW options.

I also did some quicky editing with ezm then finished with the receiver itself,because I was unsure of some of the settings.
The resulting database couldn't be opened in ezm.I did manage to move sats around and delete sats with ezm no problem.
There are also goodies in the \bin folder that look interesting.

So far I've used the new editor twice.

1- Renamed some channels, changed sid to 0 on some, and added sound to Huntington Beach. Reloaded to stb with current firmware (X2 Sept 26.rar) and it did not go kaput.

2- Had switching problems, so had to change settings for non-working sats. Reloaded to stb and it did not go kaput. Still working ok.

Have not tried editor with earlier firmware versions, so don't know if it works.

Mine is using the latest firmware as well. Editing went great. Reloading went great. Just can't check sats ..therefore can't watch tv,
Does anyone know if the sats should match exactly in the editor in the first page and the last? also what are the different "modes" in the last page? All of my sats are in mode 1...is that where they are supposed to be?
