Kingjames:

Bros whats ur rx model pls?

Are u an active suscriber? as in are u using mytv card?

I hv a bad feeling that this upgrade might disable the patch function, can u pls confirm if u can still pop out the window where u input Biss key.

Finally was the infinity/consat issue sorted; can u now view those channels?

Awaiting ur response
tx.

Bro... The user Setoop above me have said it all, there isn't no better explanation than what he has just stated.


As for if am using mytv card... Since I started doing FTA I have never used/subscribe with MYTV.

Secondly, whether it will disable patch after upgrade. Well that I don't know because I have never used/ or using a patch. So I guess for does who uses patch for biss key stuff this question is open for you.....


Receiver---- strong4669XII


As for the infinity stuff, I will give it a try to find out if there is any changes at all...

Excellent delivery! Many thanks for adding to what Prof Olenyi had earlier indicated. Pls Setoop is this applicable to all strong decoders? Pls help me because both my srt4669XII and srt 4330 badly need upgrade.
Setoop: For those ask for how their box can be upgraded through OTA ,pls note that if you don't have any dish facing my tv direction (68.5 E) . It will not be possible , so you have to take your to anybody around you that has mytv among his setup . For those that has mytv as part of their setup , just blindscan your decoder , at end of it you will see new software on your screen , then off your box and on it again , your decoder will sure be upgraded . Also it not the upgrading that increase signal quality on daarsat . Daarsat is currently upgrading their satellite to improve their service

Yeah. 0TA mytv upgrade is applicable to all strong decoders. Just position your dish @MYtv position then follow up what 0LENYI said in his previous post. Maybe other FTA non-strong decoders maybe using a patch. I stand to be corrected if am wrong. Wait a minute is your srt4330 an mpeg4 decoder?

U could easily find this out by pressing menu, installation. Is their an ''options'' submenu at the bottom of the list of menus under installation? If no, exit menu and press 6969 twice. Does it show ''patch off, patch on''? Go back to menu, installation. Is the options submenu now dia?

Also while on any channel, try pressing 8280. Does it bring out the biss input interface.

Regards.

Still counting on you sir.
SULIEMAN3: i can't say sha but i am still looking forward to getting one from a friend.
@olenyi, to know how less common the reciever is, the person i contacted to get one from don't even know that there is a such model.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Brite02(m): 6:15pm On Jul 22, 2013
@all...

It is said by MYTV that one can read newspaper via their receiver especially if you have gotten the latest software upgrade on your receiver or you have the latest strong receiver like srt4922 etc... I was testing the possibility, mine was downloading until PHCN took light....

Below is snapshot of it, when there is light I will conclude this possibility

Hello brite,
Am not trying to find out how to upgrade my stb OTA, hence with due respect to Setoop's explanation, it has no relevance to my enquiry.
I/we want to know like I highlighted how the upgrade has improved ur rx (eg fixing the infinity signal)
or the possible demerits (eg if it disabled the patch function)
however since you dont know, I call on those who did the OTA upgrade to relay the impacts to the forum.
Tx.

All those channels are subscription based, as Prof Olenyi will put it!!! Unless you buy their card or pay their monthly subscription.

@olenyi,

Happy birthday to you from the house. In this short space of time, you have done so much to lift the standard of FTA through incisive research and well thought out responses to newbie enquiries. While the rest of the pack take a back seat, cluttered by ever present, less noble issues of everyday living, you still manage to eek out time to assuage the yearnings of many would-be FTA hobbysts.

Keep the fire burning, brother. Keep the flag flying. VIVA FTA!!!
