Octagon SF8008 Supreme

**el bandido** · 02-25-2024,09:27 PM

The SF8008 Also has bluetooth (5.1?) capability. To date, this feature is useless for me. I tried OpenVix, OpenATV...etc. Useless Bluetooth for me.

They should have left out bluetooth and for a couple of more dollars added a third tuner.

Just curious, but have you checked if the second tuner blind scans?

My guess is yes if you get the SF8008 Supreme Twin and leave the useless (for the USA) SF8008 Supreme Combo with DVB-C / DVB-T2 tuner out of the mix.
As far as BT goes. Anyone try using at least a keyboard?
With all of the OTA terrestrial stuff going on, any built in tuner for that should tell you to look away.

The second DVB-S2 tuner is doing ku band duties, and works I guess identical to tuner One. The original SF8008 had scan problems with the second tuner, but those issues were resolved and do not seem to exist in the Supreme version.

Shown below is a blindscan of 89w ku that was done yesterday. It logs a 32 apsk transponder that needs about 12.5db of signal to be usable.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

My dish system is averaging around 10db, but the signal bounces regularly to about 12.5 db.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

So the Supreme has blind scanned a signal that is below lock. The Supreme will hang for an indefinite period when you try to scan this transponder for channels because it is below lock and cannot be resolved.

Having the ability to see the signal is below lock is a big help in understanding the problem. No image group, OpenATV, OpenPLi, OpenVix has adopted the ability to let the Supreme show signals below lock. So most users would see this transponder in a SF8008 Supreme as being scanned without a signal and wonder what the hell is going on. This needs to be fixed. You want to find transponders, but you do not want to find transponders that are unusable to the point the receiver hangs.

My c band lnbs are Norsat 8000RI Extended band. These lnbs work well over a wide range of frequencies and have a 5750 l.o. But they are a compromise. A larger band almost always leads to less sensitivity. If I had a decent set of 5150 l.o. lnbs yesterday instead of extended band, i may have locked the 32apsk transponder. I would guess you lose a db or 2 on extended band.

Probably, at least 80% of the time, the Supreme has no issues scanning. Shown below is extended c band on 65 west. This satellite is not very strong for me and has some transponders hanging around the threshold of lock/unlock. I can't recall the Supreme hanging on this satellite.

Blind Scan Time = 3 Min. 56 Sec.
84 Channels ( TV = 78  Radio = 6)  37 of 37 Transponders Scanned.

61w c band Is hit or miss. This is a weak satellite for me with transponders below lock. It is pretty common to get a receiver hang when scanning/blind scanning 61w.

My Supreme arrived today and since I haven't used ATV for a few years, I was surprised on how much bloatware was added to the plugin extensions.

Tried deleting some of the bloatware using the uninstall extensions button, but they were not listed there. I installed an ipk uninstaller via Filezilla, but that program couldn't list or find the commercial bloatware either.

I made a full backup to my ssd drive and it took 15 minutes. Not too thrilled with the speed, so I installed backupsuite hoping it would speed up backups in the future. Had to changed the backupsuite sh files to 777 and add enigma2-plugin-extensions-backupsuite.control file to var_lib_opkg_info in order for ATV to recognize it. It did recognize it, but I got as far as display of bad magic number error per the attached pix:

[Only registered and activated users can see links. ] Could be I am using the wrong version of Backupsuite.

Installed PLI 8.3, last version before they started working on 9.0. Tried 9.0 but I was unable to get wifi or lan working in the two last builds. Also, installed TNAP see pix:

[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

So far working ok. Now to test some more.

Finally! Excellent to have another set of eyes on this receiver!

TNAP will need updating under Software update in receiver menus. There should be a TNAP 5.1 available under Flash image. That is the one I would load. Backupsuite is default in TNAP and you should find it working properly.

The Wifi is different from the SF8008. Cannot remember if I got the wifi working in TNAP 5 or not. Wifi works in TNAP 5.1.

Flash to 5.1 worked fine.

Actually I was referring to backupsuite not working on ATV. While using ATV, I switched to MCelliotG's skin to checkout the cpu temp (thanks MCelliotG). Switched to the Oman HD channel on 97 ku (because it is 1080 HD) and let it sit there for 30 minutes. The cpu temp average was 68-69C. Then removed the receiver cover and let it sit on the same channel for 30 minutes and the temp dropped to 64C.

Digged up an old intel cpu aluminum heat sink and sat it right on top of the cpu heat sink. The temp dropped down to 49-50C.

If anyone ever tries this, be sure to power off before touching metal on metal on the cpu heatsink. Not shutting the power off will cause the display to go nuts..... A putty reboot will not work. Only a cold boot will bring things back to normal.

**el bandido** · 02-27-2024,02:46 PM

Pictures of the modded heatsink would be nice!

Attached is a python script that shows BER, Lock, and signal using terminal. To use this script, unzip it and install it somewhere in the common receiver files (/media/usb, /tmp....etc). Open terminal,Change Directory in terminal to the proper location of the script, then start the script by calling it using python. Example = python dvbcsv.py. No need to do any other changes.

The script is set for tuner one(A). It can be changed to tuner two(B) by changing the line numbered 88 from - to:
dev = "/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0"
dev = "/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1"

This script may be allowed to run or it may be started at any time signal information is needed. It does not require a stop-start of enigma2. The script may be stopped by keboard using Ctrl + C. This script is useful for watching lock and signal i terminal and may be used in scans.
