    Vix doesn't seem to store channels in satellite or multi-satellite scan mode

    Hello,

    Whenever I scan a whole satellite using Manual Scan > Single Satellite, it seems to scan the channels but doesn't actually store them anywhere. Also the "clear before scan" option set to yes doesn't seem to clear the currently stored channels in the list.

    Am I missing something stupid? Using latest VIX on Uno.

    Look in your list of bouquets, last one should be named 'Last Scanned'

    The last scan where I manually entered the frequency, yes.

    Let's say I scan something on freq1 by entering the transponder's details in Manual Scan page - it will scan, save the channels under satellites services and Last Scanned bouquet list.

    Now let's say I do a full satellite scan - it will scan, find the channels but will not save them either under satellite services or Last Scanned bouquet list. Only the previously manually entered frequency scan is shown there.

    I tried to reproduce this by scanning 3 satellites (manual scan --> multiple satellites --> picked 3).
    On completion I found all channels in the last-scanned bouquet. So I have no idea what went wrong in your case.

    Please be aware: 'last scanned' literally means what it says; on doing a new scan the previous channels in that bouquet will be overwritten by the newly found (but of course: the 'all-list' contains them all).

    Help asked via PM will be ignored.
    The forum is there for help and all will benefit from your questions.

    I apologise for all my grammar, spelling and idiom errors.

    Right, here's the video of what is happening:



    First scan: manual frequency entry scan - the two scanned channels get stored in the services list and are put into the Last Scanned list. "Clear before scan" option has no effect.
    Second scan: full satellite scan - 15 channels get scanned in from the 2 stored frequency for that satellite but are not permanently stored in the services list, nor are they put into Last Scanned list. You can see that first scan's two channels are in there instead of the full sat scan one. "Clear before scan" option has no effect.
    Third scan: repeat second scan - same results
    Fourth scan: manual frequency entry scan, different frequency from the first scan - the 13 scanned channels get stored in the services list and are put into the Last Scanned list. "Clear before scan" option has no effect.

    I will play about with it some more - perhaps a full image reload.... or a service list reload. Not sure what's happening there.
