Good mornin to u all.
D error has been corrected. Could u believe dat d problem was d brand new 60cm dish?
After much of d hectic tracking without success, my instincts told me to use an old 60cm dish. When i did, behold, all d traffic lites became green in less than 3minutes.
Lesson: dont throw away all ur old properties, u may need them somday. Bt dont b stingy oo :> wink

Good u have eventually found d new dish to b d problem. But yourself, graphicicon, et all had faulted & condemned MYTV branded receivers - which wasn't d problem here. Maybe u need to correct those misinformation pls

Go to strong technologies software
downloads and download the original strong 4950h software, then rename the whole software rom. bin. Put the software on a clean flash drive.. NB:: only the rom. bin should be on the flash drive. Now put off your decoder from behind then insert your flash drive.. After press and hold the power /middle knob in front of the decoder and then power the decoder on. As soon as the decoder finds the flash drive remove your hand and wait for flashing. After you have finished, you can then go back and put whatever patch you prefer

my irib tv has refuse to come up,even at 80% it did not come up.

I can tell from experience its your dielectic plate that is out of place.

You might notice drop of irib channels in afternoon, only for it to show at night some times.

Solution ; check the plate is properly placed into its place ( between the lines in d lnb ), and dont tighten the holding screew too much, you will tilt d dielectic plate balance and grip.
Best of luck

Well dat statement wasnt a lie. Some of d decoders do malfunction. I have personally experienced it. I did an installation 4 a customer who bought a SRT4940. Whenever u change to anoda channel from a different satellite, it takes almost 2minutes for signal to come up. Is dat normal?

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by routsz: 8:43pm On May 14, 2015
@SweetWJ, again u are making definite assertions even when u have no evidences to substantiate. That u did installation 4 a customer & d SRT 4940 was slow when switching channels - could have been dish, lnb or some other problem. I'm no agent of MYTV but I think u need to b doubly sure on some of these things b4 making such grand assertions as u are doing. To say 'xyz' now about a product & later find out its not exactly true can b very unfair & damaging. Caution is needful here. Just my point

The rise and rise of startimes/starsat. The only medium to compete with DSTV.
Lower prices, more local content with iroko plus, iroko play, AMC series, AMC movies, etc. The sky is the limit but only need to improve on the digital picture quality.

Startimes has more than 1 million subscribers and the highest bouquet is 3600 naira per month. Even with 2400, you get to watch AMC movies and Iroko play.

Well Iroko play the picture quality is ok upto standard can be compared with dstv afro movie channels better than cine afri/cine plus,nollywood and the rest of them! my receiver sees those channels AMC/iroko/ etc as top TV package not starsat/startimes..probably there is a mix up somewhere!
CHEERS!

What wil i stand to gain if i deliberately make wrong assertion or assessment on Mytv paired decoders to discourage the general public without any form of evidence? Is that not a sin? What i posted is what i experienced and i want others to be informed so that when they encounter similar occurrence, they would know exactly where the problem lies.
I didn't intend to discourage others with my post, pls dont assume or conclude on issues without thorough clarifications. Remember, we all here to improve our knowledge and skills. Someday, u wil come across similar complaint and i wil b expectin ur Quotes
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Nobody: 8:43am On May 15, 2015
Folks!! maybe its high time we make good use of 4950h and patch 3.20p. For those thinking of buying new mini decoders like q.sat...etc. consider carrying your 4950h over to your dealer for assistance.
