Hi, hope someone can help wan issue before I send it back.
I have recently purchased a Zgemma H9S 4K where I installed OpenATV 6.3 and latest WhooshBuild Infinity. I purchased IPTV subscription which works great. I then later found out why the box encountered BSOD when recording as I was watching another IPTV channel which I learned after research on here. I then decided to resurrect my old sky dish to watch FTA whilst recording IPTV. The dish was here when moved here 8yrs ago which gave a signal of 84% but found no channels on 28.2E using simple tuner setup. I have also tried advanced and tinkered with almost every setting (at least I think I have) I tried manual, automatic and blind scans but nothing will pick up any channels. On the blind scan it does pick up lots of transponders but still no channels. I reset H9S to factory defaults and tried again to no avail. I flashed again with OpenATV 6.2 (instead of 6.3) and latest whooshbuild again but still not channels received.
After reading lots of posts on here I purchased a new universal quad LNB as it suggested it may not be compatible. Also replaced with new cabling and F connectors, again signal 84%. I then purchased a secondhand Sky HD + box for a tenner, removed same cable from H9S, plugged into Sky box and all works fine displaying FTA channels perfectly.
So question is do I send it back? have I purchased the wrong box? or can anyone suggest anything I may have missed?
Thanks in advance
