ZgemmaH17

[Robert73]

Sorry for the inconvenience, my name is Robert, I purchased the Zgemma H17, but I have a problem. With the cam inserted with satellite TV, selecting common interface slows down the decoder, making it difficult to change channels and impossible to use the menu. However, if I deselect the cam, I remove it from the decoder and everything goes back to normal. Is there a solution to this problem? I have an Egami 11.

No idea with that image…and cannot look at their image as they don,t allow mere mortals to look at their code!
So flash openvix into a slot and see what happens and how we can help you

Non ho idea di cosa significhi quell'immagine... e non posso guardare la loro immagine perché non permettono ai comuni mortali di guardare il loro codice!
Quindi inserisci Openvix in uno slot e guarda cosa succede e come possiamo aiutarti

ok

Also, try OpenATV and PurE2 - try them without any additional SW downloaded.

If it doesn't work you have options: they may have different versions of the CI tool (CI Plus Helper v. 5.4, 5.6 etc.).

From memory, there are some settings there to set up...?

I haven't bought a smartcard for a while. Which one do you have, which CaID?

I installed the image, but the problem persists. Mine is a Wi-Fi cam, and this problem doesn't occur with the Zgemma H7s. Or maybe the H17 has hardware issues. I'll return it.

Same error no matter what image you use

Stesso errore indipendentemente dall'immagine utilizzata

Ho usato altre ipk soft cam ho ottenuto un leggero miglioramento. Procedo con i test, cercando una soluzione.

I solved the problem by installing the PowerCam soft camera. There are still sporadic crashes, but that's acceptable.

Just to add one more thing a friend (who is also an experienced satellite installer) and I figured out when he came to help me with tracking down a potential structural issue - and he indeed pointed me to something I never had a problem with before: interference from a new, powerful Asus modem (with WiFi 2.4, 5 and 6)! We moved the cable splitter a lot until we found a place where it kinda worked and those specific TPs I mentioned earlier finally started working relatively well... Did anybody else run into such a problem? Just curious...

But not well enough, so I ended up testing 4 different boxes in the same spot:

Zgemmas H7, H17, H9 Combo and Edision mio OS+. All of them were somewhat affected by the interference but not equally...

In the end, I decided that H9 Combo had the least of such problems.

So, in short, H17 was generally OK from the start but a few problems combined to give me a few headaches...

-it's quite susceptible to WiFi (and/or wireless telephone station?) interference (a floor-standing, big loudspeaker helped in shielding the receiver a bit)
-E-Channelizer bug which rendered a channel list useless (IPTV channels in particular - now fixed and new, more capable E-Channelizer is on its way...)
-the red LED for Standby does not work in any image, only in Deep Standby but that is down to the manufacturer, not an image...
