Blind Scanning .... Does it work..?

[DrProzac]

Can anyone confirm if Blind Scanning works on this box.

I've tried a few different times on different SATS and run the Blind Scan, and I always get the same Error message at the end saying No transponders were found with those parameters?

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or if it just doesn't work?

Looking at the Original Guide on Vix Manual, is says about having the option to put in a Start and End Frequency, as well as all the rest of the Parameters, I can only seem to have the options of

H V etc, and Symbol rate.

So I'm not sure if this is no longer supported or maintained?

What image are you using?

 

[DrProzac]

Sorry forgot that part,...
Brand & Model: Edision OS mega
Chipset (Frontprocessor Version): BCM73565 (7)
Main Memory: 430168 kB free / 584636 kB total
Box Uptime: 2d 2:49
Software
System OE: OE-Alliance 4.0
Firmware version: OpenViX 5.0.024 (2017-08-04)
Kernel / Drivers: 4.11.0 / 20170723


I just seem to get the same results all the time when I try.
I'm sure it something I'm doing wrong.

Post a screen grab of how you have the plugin configured.

 

[DrProzac]

I'm just using the Built in BLIND Scan Access from Main menu



MENU
Setup
Tuner Config
Blind Scan

And these are the Parameters I was doing a test On



If your saying Plugin maybe I'm in the wrong place then?

 

[Huevos]

Looks like something is broken in the plugin. I check it out later.

And, yes, it is a plugin.

 

[DrProzac]

This is what I get when the scan is in Progress.



So is that the correct place I was in, or should it appear under the Plugins section?
I've only been back to using an E2 Box for a few months, and never have had it working so far (ie the last few updates) I couldn't get it to work either..

Like Huevos says, you would need to install the plugin. He will advise I'm sure as this is his area.

with your photos above you are scanning 28.2??

the error is on a different sat?

i presume a motorised or multi lnbs in use and not just a fixed dish at 28.2?

Yes sorry that probably confused things.
Initial Screen shots were on 28.2E

The Blind Scan I actually run was on 7E.

I still get the same Error regardless of what sat I scan on.

Tuner A is Motor
Tuner B is Fixed on 28.2E

 

[DrProzac]

For Completeness.



This is on Tuner A

 

[el bandido]

DVB-S/S2 Blindscan has been broken in Broadcom Tuner A of the OS Mini for a long time. Could blindscan in the OS Mega tuner be broken too?

Just as a reminder, blindscan only supports 3 lnb types, or these l.o. frequencies.
Universal (9750/10600)
Circular (10750)
C band (5150)
I doubt blindscan would work correctly with Unicable, or other lnb types besides these three.

 

[DrProzac]

Maybe I've miss understood.

I thought with my set-up and Blindscan working, I could just do a Blind Scan on either 28.2E and find any missing transponders, the same with 7E 9E and 10E for feeds?

Have I missed something?

Where is that reported?

 

[Huevos]

I don't understand why the box is not showing start and stop frequencies. On Vu Solo4k...

 

[cactikid]

changing sats does your motor move dish as if dish is off and is there a signal finder on box to check what signal and/lock ?
kingofsats could give you a channel frequency to check, i remember in trying usals for motorised years ago.

Screenshot of the tuner config on each satellite/tuner combo you are scanning.

 

[DrProzac]

Attached Screenshots.



I still however can't find a BlindScan Pluging to download.

 

[Huevos]

You already have it loaded.

When I change channel to a Different SAT I get the following Displayed.

Yes the motor moves fine.



I;m not sure if that is what you meant though??
Do you mean from Normal Scanning (Signal Finder)

Or Do you mean if I select another SAT and Frequency Here does the motor say it's moving?


If it's the later No. I don't get the Motor Icon up.

It just waits a while and then shows the New SAT and New Frequecy
