VU+ Zero 4K Receiver.

So, menu>setup>service searching>blindscan>network scan....

Setting it to Off/On has no effect in speed changes due to the current coding?

Will have to try a blindscan tomorrow and compare speeds.

Please post your blindscan plugin folder. You may have a later version that has a toggle for network search.
A network search that works correctly tells the receiver about all of the transponders for a satellite when the first transponder is scanned. At least that is the way I remember it working on 129W ku. So if you tell the to look for networks or do a network search, then it may take more time to complete the service scan. There is no reason for us to do network searches in North America because our satellites are not set up for it.

97 ku

Network scan off = 2:30
Network scan on = 3:20 and it finds a few more channels

Nice find!

I do not see how a network itself scan could add channels to the 97w scan. Coincidence maybe? A discussion on network scan is in the link.

But as Rob van der Does says, "but although it may be a transponder-scan, the result is nevertheless that channels are found (even if they don't transmit at the time of the search)".

Just for curiosity, next time I do a BS on 97, I will try to compare both scans.

A blindscan video of 97W ku using the Zero 4K is in the link. (Network search is completely deleted in this modified blindscan plugin.)

A blindscan video of 103W ku is in the link. I think there has been enough blindscan videos posted with the Zero 4K, so I probably will not make anymore unless something unusual happens. I find the overall blindscan speed of the Zero 4K to be acceptable.

Could you send me the plugin you modified, there has been a new driver update for HD51 and I'd like to try something out...

[el bandido]

The plugin is attached, but it probably will not work on that box unless there is a blindscan binary in usr/bin, and the correct information for the box is added to, or is already in the plugin

[MCelliotG]

Send me the bin as well, I will modify the code if necessary, we have nothing to lose!

[el bandido]

The bin file is encrypted so it cannot be modified. Plus it is model specific.
