Gold Member Username: RunnerguyPluto Post Number: 1099 Registered: Sep-06 | To understand lyngsat page -- On the main page, you will see popular satellites on the left... If you click on the satellites under "frequencies" it will show you a list of frequencies(TPs) that the satellite transmits on. If you click on the satellites under "packages", it will show you a list of channels for that satellite. This is normally what you want so you can figure out what channels are available on what satellite. If you want a complete list of satellites you want to go the middle and select the area you live in. It will bring up all the satellites that you can receive for your area. From this list you can select each satellite to see what is available. For example...if you live in the US and want to know what channels are available on Echostar 3, from the main page, click on America in the packages row. A list of satellites will be displayed. Now select Echostar 3. A table listing frequencies and who the owner of that frequency is displayed. To see what channels are available, click on the white box with a P in it (fourth column that has two boxes one with A and one with P). That should display a list of channels that are available on Echostar 3. The first column is the TP(frequency) and the 2nd/3rd columns show the channels that are available on that transponder. That goes on for each transponder. There are usually a maximum of 32 transponders per satellite. If you look at each row, the 3rd column is the channel name. The 4th column has an A and when you click on it, you get the physical address of the channel(we don't use it much). The 5th column has "nagravision 2" or something else which tells you the type of encryption that is used for that channel. The 6th column has the SID = Station ID. This is normlly the channel number that is displayed on subscribed receivers. Next two columns have the APID = Audio PID and the VPID = Video PID. APID and VPID define the video and audio streams for that channel. Since there can be multiple channels on a single transponder, the APID and VPID identify the MPEG digital streams for each channel. Next column shows where the channel can be received -- conus = Continental United States = US. The last column indicates when a change was made and by whom -- shows the name and date the change was made. A blue color indicates a recent/new change. This is an overview of how to understand lyngsat tables. If you have specific questions, please ask and I(or someone) will try to explain. The most common use of these tables is to determine what satellites to point to based on the channels you want to receive. Advanced users can actually use the VPID/APID data from these tables and fix problems they may have with channel reception. The SID is frequently used to rename the channel ID to match what is standard. |

Bronze Member Username: TstdrivrU.S.A. Post Number: 25 Registered: Dec-07 | the only problem with lyngsat is i think he is VERY lax in his updating of channel list per transponder I've noticed alot of discrepancies on quite a few transponders namely nimiq 1 and 2. You want exact info on those go here http://bellsrdu.ca/en/sales_channel_lp.shtml straight from the horses mouth as they say. |

Gold Member Username: RunnerguyPluto Post Number: 1108 Registered: Sep-06 | I am not a Mod, Admin or Supermod at any site and have no monetary benefit to gain from this posting. I do not have an FTA STB and do not promote the use of one. All these sites ALWAYS have the latest files, bins, how to's, manuals, guides, dish pointing calulators and tips, hardware info, jtag info, newbie and getting started sections, actively moderated with a no troublemakers and no bashing allowed policy.. and are free, and only require a simple free registration...Your email info is kept private, unless U specify differently..and U will be notified via email of any replies to any questions U may ask (or U can shut that feature off, if U like)..and your IP is sacred and never released.. Many of these specialize in particular FTA receivers as noted next to their links..USE those for your particular receiver manufacturer.. If U want real info, trouble free, no costs, friendly help, no hassles, latest files and manuals, then use these...these are well established, and have a long history, and are the best known sites throughout the entire DSS community now... Ecoustics is NOT a Dss site, since is has NO files, no manuals, no guides, little info, no specific categories, and is almost impossible to find anything because every thread here has been allowed to be hijacked (because no mods are active) and the Subject does not relate to the posts within it....also Ecoustics is basically an Electronics site for home audio, television, DVDs, stereo's, and things of that nature, NOT FTA satellite information . So again I highly recommend using ANY of these sites BELOW!....U pick one and use it for fast , friendly info and files, and many of these also have a LIVE chat area what U can get an IMMEDIATE response from reliable knowlegeable sources!...U will save yourself much time, especially if you are a newbie to this hobby!...and most all also will have the latest keys posted as well, and the keymaster, keyripper, key grabber utility files to download as well....and if plastic is your thing , some also have an area for that as well as FTA..Good Luck and enjoy this hobby!

Silver Member Username: One_eye_jackPost Number: 256 Registered: Nov-07 | Ali you can not add missig channels manually. Scan the TP or the TPs that carry your missing channels. HOW TO ADD A NEW (TP) TRANSPONDER -Press OK after selecting a satellite. -Select Edit TP and then the Transponder list will appear. -Press the OK key after selecting "NEW" from the Transponder list. -Enter the Down frequency, LNB Polarity (H) or (V) and the Symbol Rate (SR) -Press Exit or OK and the new Transponder information will be stored. |
