How do I add saterlite list xml files

[ALIEN1X]

I have created a new a saterlite list xml file off the web.
How do i add or import ths into my ETt8500 reciver?

Do I delete my existing saterlight list first and how do I do this?

What do you mean "off the web"?

What was missing from the supplied xml?

Put your file in /etc/enigma2 ... and don't forget to keep it up to date.

Remove it and the box will drop back to the supplied system file.

Yes the xml files of the web.

I reflashed my box et8500 as its was too slow and hanging when starting, also saved sat scans went missing.
So after usb reflash it went thru wizzard and asked to scan for sats So I chose simple with multiscan option and selected my sats from 1.93e to 75w as a manual scan.

Then after setup, when clicking on tv remote button secting green button for sats and then extention option list all my sats it only shows 39e to 30w?

So thought I would try the sat xml site entered my longitude and latitude which gave me results form 76.5E to 75W so downloaded that xml into etc/enigma2

Still not picked up that sat range only shows 39e to 30w,

After loadig the xml file I did not rescan or should I do that?

..... use the simple_1080 skin for the time being, to avoid your box hanging.

What satellite dishes are you using? Have you got a clear line of site to the arc you are trying to scan? Is the dish set up properly?

What are you trying to receive between 30W and 75W as there is pretty much nothing there for people that live in Europe?
Same after 39E, maybe a bit from the 42E west beam.

Also if your dish is set up wrong most like that will show worse at either end of the arc.

What are you trying to receive

Please be specific. Which channels?

Still no answer.

[ALIEN1X]

Still no answer.

what I was trying to do is get all the sats scaned and tuned in, so thats all TV channels that are available . Looking at the above posts it looks like my dish locaton could be restricting me of what i was trying to achive.
I will do a screen shot of what can scan and see.
Im not interes intersted in radio channels but there is no option in openvix I belive to have TV only scanned

Also known as mission impossible. Unless there is something you actually want to watch you're wasting your time.

My dish is set properly
Im scanning for all sats that I can pick up between 70e top 75w.

Perhaps my location is only allowing me to pickup up from 30e to 30w? Im based in East London and dish is pole mounted on the ground in back garden?

Am I right in sayinmg that during a manual or auto scan, the receiver only saves what channels and sats it can pick up based on my location and line of site- regarldless of what sats I select (selected all between 70e to 75w)?

Purely on mechanical grounds I wouldn't be surprised if the vertical mounting pole moves when the disk moves through 140 degrees.
Have you actually viewed what happens to the pole when the dish is travelling?
Does the dish move in a moderate wind?

yes it does move in wind and i have plan to restrain the mount from above. It is a windy site yes I do have to realign it in winter. At moment its aligned but get i cant anything above 30w or 35e etc possiblt due to location of dish i guess.

i was thinking of having it moved in the summer to the corner of the house just above eaves line of pitched roof. Only prblem is being a windy site I would need a ladder to get up their Thats why i placed it on a garden mount pole and can get 30E to 30w but with realigning in winter(currenly aligned )
