Cable Star h1 Setup issues?

[ZgemmaNoob]

Hi guys, Bought one of these boxes, but struggling to set it up. After much faffing about, I've managed to get it where it picks up there should be channels there, but no sound or picture. Can anyone tell me where I've gone wrong? :)

Once you've put your area network I'd in, just set it up like a satellite box regarding scanning.

Press up or down then green button to select cable.

You could also use autobouquets choose your area and scan.

Hi, No line sorted or anything like that. Would it not work as an FTA receiver without gift?

Using the sat tuner you can get FTA. Cable tuner, no.

Ah, I see! How would I go about getting a gift?

But u can use as sat/terrestrial twin tuner. So still record 1 watch 1.

For gifts etc have a read here

Hi Sucmnsee I've installed your Openvix image, nice and clear, but I'm not sure how to set up to scan for my particular channels. Looking at the VM areas, and I could fall under any number of them (live in Wigan area), so could fall under Knowsley, Manchester, Preston even. Coudl you advise? :) Thanks.

Have a look for net I'd 40967
Wigan 40967 531.000 6.952

Cheers, that's listed as Preston 1 for me for some reason, but seems to be recognising a lot more channels. :) Thanks. :)
