I know my ppv's are on 8.10 I get every other channel but PPV's. Where did they go? and how do I get them back?

I have a fortec lifetime ultra... i've check all my setting to someone elses reciever and they seem correct, gone back to reset to factor settings, redid scan, tried blind scan and nothing.

Someone please help!

what sats are you getting? 110 and 119? should be able to scan each sat. Make sure your antenna settings didnt change after you installed the new bin file

i have 2 dished on at 110 (which I scan 8.10) and the other on 110 (which i scan 7). I haven't changed my bin file since April ... still the 293. What should my antenna settings be? Maybe they changed with the bin file then.
I moved and didn't hook up right away plus I've been living without PPV's for 2 months and have been looking for answers and trying different things. Today I gave up and posted.

I'm not sure how to do the bins.... last time I did it I ended up having to get someone to jtag my reciever cuz I screwed it so badly. I'm not all that savy with this stuff.... haha! No other way to get them back without redoing the bin?

well, u can enter the keys manualy. U can find the keys everywhere. Although they are changing about 3-5 times a day. I suspect it will slow down. look under new keys thread.

I always enter keys manually.... I've done it 3 times today atleast. Can I enter the bin manually? And aren't the bin and keys two different things?

Yeah, the bin is like firmware... no u cant load it without a pc. when u enter your keys, u should get everything. if not, u may need to factory reset it and rescan all sats.

Most will say only do a blind scan, but I do one at a time. go to installation, antenna set up, scan satalite i guess. Im not sure of the menu structure on those. I kept thinking this was a pancrap. still should be similar

Kavin... i kinda thought it had something to do with the Freq. as it is running thru the scan here none of those frequences came up. I'm gonna try and manually add them. If this works I'll kiss you!!!!

Okay so I have found the problem but i have no clue how to fix. If i go into an advanced scan on any of those PPV freq. above they have no quality and pick up nothing on those frequences. So how do I fix this. I have 3 things i can change in the advanced scan, video PID, audio PID and PCR PID all three are set to auto now, should i screw with those?

maybe you have the wrong lnb type selected in the antenna setup.

select echo8.10 , select one of the no quality tp's and then change the lnb type (dish pro or standard)-see if any quality appears
