maybe accurate scan would be better than blindscan,but takes longer.

Depends on what sw version your using. My skybox s12 is using C2HS2-11-07-14:0651CM and the only choices are blind scan or preset scan.

remember to back up the original firmware first if you decide to play with any other firmware.

I found in menu something that said dump. So I dump all I could check mark to an USB thumbdrive, were like 5-7 things a few were if I remember correctly api. and some were images. Suggestions.

I got mine from Mixeshop and have not had any problems. They shipped the receiver fast. It got here about the same amount of time as it would take something from the West Coast to get here. I chose DHL shipping though. You can save 10 or 15 dollars by choosing airmail shipping.

Information is in post 1 Here: http://www.legitfta.com/forum/showthread.php?8706-HD-amp-DVB-S2-FTA-Receiver-for-Under-50-00

Thank you! I just ordered mine from Mixeshop for $77 including DSL shipping to the US.
 
I don't have one,but the serial port looks like the old pc cdrom audio cable.
Maybe you could salvage and roll your own.
Lan manager is the ethernet port program.

You paid about as much for the receiver as I do for a tank of gas in the van. I think you will be happy with it.
IMO, 77 dollars delivered is about all any Ali receiver is worth when compared to everything else that is on the market now. EB
 
The Legit firmware file mentioned earlier will have the CW channels. I do not know if the information for them is still correct, you will have to try it and see.
You may be able to get a plug for the RS232 connector if you can find an old computer. That is where I got mine from. EB
 
I also tried a file can't remember wish one and after reboot tv screen was bouncing, I used the dump I did of the factory firmware moved it to an empty thumb drive and guessing with remote control loaded the factory file and all is good, I'll try tonight the file you gave link on page 1, will report tomorrow.
Thanks in advance TURBO
