    Channel help ET9500

    Im new to these boxes as you may have already gathered On first installing the box it asks me where to scan for channels one is 28.2E astra . Im getting lots of the same channels repeated. Is there particular ones which are best to use when getting the channels ? Also on the screen the box which shows the menu options is way over to the left how can i get it so I can see it properly

    Set up ABM for your area and provider and forget about service scans.

    See the youtube example for setting up ABM on your box for Freesat UK

    Code:

    You can do similar for Freeview UK (terrstrial) using some of the other options if your reception is via an aerial

    Then perhaps use the web interface to modify the channel list. See
    http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...-EXtrend-ET950

    Menu screen too far to the right/left usually means that you TV is over scanning and there should be a menu option on the TV to stop this happening
    On my TV its in picture options
    Auto wide
    16:9
    Wide Zoom
    Zoom
    4:3
    Just Scan <------------------------------ this is the selected option on my TV,on your TV the option may be labelled diffently
