20161204_021319.jpg20161204_021334.jpg

Received my box today, was able to set up satellite tuner but the cable tuner is not detecting any input, i used a spare two way splitter and the cable pictured above, the split cable connection between the BB router and the box.


PICONS:
I followed the guide on openvix website, downloaded the picons to a 16GB USB Stick attcahed to the box and formatted to FAT32 but the picons aren't showing up.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

is your cable question in regards to support? if so can you be more clear

picons on usb, you have done that wrong. the best way to do is format usb, switch box off and plug usb in, switch box on, make sure usb mounted, once mounted, then use FileZilla or something similar and ftp into your box. go to media/hdd and make a folder called picon, then transfer the picons to that folder.

Thanks for your quick response, the cable issue is regarding support, because the DVB-C tuner isn't detecting the cable wire connection.
i dont want to go out buying a new splitter and wires if its something that im doing wrong with the setup.

DVB-C SETUP:

I used a spare 2-way splitter and coax to F connector wire on the picture above. Connected the external wire coming into the house to the Input port of the splitter then connecting my router to one output point (router works ok) and connected the box to the second output point using the cable on the picture above.

RESULT:
When I navigate to: - Menu > Setup > Service searching > Tuner configuration: DVB-S2 is working perfectly see attached picture.
Whilst DVB-C Tuner is unable to detect the connected cable from the splitter to the box, below is message I get on the configuration screen:

TUNER TYPE DVB-C
CONFIGURATION MODE - Nothing Detected

PICONS SETUP:

I have a 16GB USB stick attached to the USB hole at the back of the box, the stick is formatted to FAT32 and I mounted it by navigating to Setup-System- storage device-initialisation.

I downloaded picons from the plugin section and save them on this USB Stick
When I FTP into the box and click on media > hdd, there is already a folder named picon, ( I didn’t make this folder) with all the picons already on it.

MY Problems:

I am unable to get DVB-C connection working and the picons are not showing up on the channel list.

Try connecting to your box without the splitter. That will rule out your splitter being faulty.

Just done as you suggested, still no tuner or wire connection detected
Im using a wire like this picture, plugged into the "antenna in" inputSE0068606_coax_to_f_connector_kenable.jpg

I did a direct connection of the cable to the white box on the wall where cable from the street terminates to.
Then connected the other end of the cable to the antenna input on the edision box.

that should work been a direct feed,hmm more input needed from others,any m8s got same setup to test there?

[kokojnr]

Is there anyway to test if the DVB-C tuner is ok and working?

it should detect your connection been direct and just to confirm it is before router? then could be faulty tuner,hence i said check elsewhere.

Hi,
Yes I isolated the router and connected direct from the feed box on the wall and the STB

wos may ask you to reflash box and setup again to recheck tuner issue and check it at a m8s house to confirm tuner issue.

Have you configured your DVB-C tuner? It says, nothing connected on the screenshot. You will need the net-ID of the existing TV service. I assume you have a working cable TV service and not just broadband?

Sorry how do I configure the DVB-C tuner when it's not showing up under "SETUP> SERVICE SEARCHING> TUNER CINFIGURATION"?

I have basic TV package and 200MB BB.
