Where can I download the latest satellite.xml file for 28.2, 19.2 and 13e channels?

Where do I put the file in my Vu+ Duo and how do I use the file?


I keep losing channels when the channel frequency changes.

good news and bas news

on vix 1.2 if you include 42east in the download it will show a green screen every time you try to go to it

you ftp it to tuxbox replacing the current satellite.xml file

the prblem with 42 east is a real mystery

Edit your satellites.xml file. Search for "Türksat" and rename it to "Turksat" then after transferring it back to the box do a reboot

Is this all that I'd the matter with 42 a simple case of renaming it to ANSI format

Hi,
Just came across this thread and fancy having a go at generating my own xml file from the above link my, only question is what do you guy's use to edit the file to get rid of the special characters?

Another question,
Am i correct in assuming the following sample line is a c band frequency and if so is it worth editing it and all the others out to speed up scanning times?

transponder frequency="3792000" symbol_rate="4340000" polarization="1" fec_inner="3" system="0" modulation="1"/>

Regards,
snapperoonie.

truthfully the time difference achieved by doing that would be negligible.
