    Greyed Out Channel lists

    Hi

    I updated yesterday to 5.1.022 and then updated vhannibals at the same time, since then a lot of the satellite channel lists are greyed out, see below.

    I'm no expert but reading around it could be a problem with the satalites.xml, how do I update this?

    Thanks,

    Hi,
    I would say check tuner settings and make a service scan.

    Tuner setup is correct, some channels are white as shown on 4.8e screen shot and these work OK.

    The channels that are now grey worked previously, for example AFN channels on 9e.

    When a satellite is not available, it is usually because of a mismatch/missing in xml file. Have you tried using his xml file?

    I have done a blind scan on 9e and it has brought those channels back now on the channel list.

    Do I need to do this for each Sat, never had to do this before?

    Hi,
    is lamedb included in the settings? If not then lamedb does not fit the settings. If lamedb is not correct you need an up to date st xml file AND you need to scan all sat.

    ciao

    Hi folks, I have the same issue on VIX 5.1.022. Vhannibals motor list updated yesterday and now certain channels are greyed out. Worst still I can't seem to tune to any channels. I've not changed any tuner configs at all.

    Do you stop enigma first (telnet init 4) before replacing the files? (init 3 to restart enigma.)

    Just tried this and replaced with vhannibals files and still no good and messed up abm channel list for virgin. Rescan of abm sorted that though

    If I do a manual multisat scan and leave running overnight do we think this will resolve the issue?

    Can anyone shed any light on this problem, or is it reflash time?
