Viewsat platinum users manual

In order to accomplish this, we took the Viewsat Platinum and trimmed the fat. The Lite does not include a card reader or Dolby output. Standard remote included. The Lite also has one set of composite outputs. Other than that, it is just as user friendly and powerful as it's big brother, the Viewsat Platinum. Check with your dealer for pricing. This unit uses Platinum firmware. It took us a little longer to release the PVR than we anticipated. As I recall one of the "features" of the new and improved GUI of the aftermarket stuff was the elimination of BS from the menus, and prolly removal of the code for it in the FW altogether.

Be prepared, it is very slow. The 2K Platinum was a 1st gen actually the popular one was the 2nd version of the same named box and the last of that design was the "Lite" that was a model stripped of some of the "unnecessary" for stealing signals hardware. The AC3 optical out is all they came with. If you dont have one, Google Sonic Voom. It is a compact AC3 to analog decoder, with headphones. Some have said there are "holes" in the sound presumably when the audio is on the channels that arent being connected to the amp.

I had considered cutting the connector off the headphones and building a resistor network to re-mix all the channels back to 2 input mode, but my stereo has AC3 in so it hasnt been a priority project. The Viewsat is a mediocre box in the world of real FTA, but it makes a decent receiver in a dedicated set it and forget it service, like for the grandkids, the elderly etc. If anything else you use is supported by the ChannelMaster editing app.

There isnt really a files section here per se, you have to look thru the posts for attachments. If he can find a link to what you want, it doesnt exist SatboyZ SatelliteGuys Pro. Sep 30, 0. I can confirm that when I got my Extreme, the hackware did not have BS on it also. Ironically, I found factory software on a hack site that is still up after Nagra 3 was impletmented.

Might want to Google "tvKeyz" and go to their website to get factory software for your unit. It worked for me. Click to expand SatboyZ said:. I guess I should have been more clear about that.

I do have a sonic voom I am running my audio through the sonic voom On AC3 channels there is no audio coming out. I tried a few different known AC3 channels and the same thing happens I wonder if the channels are not recognised as AC3 and I must go into the channel editor and add this support manually I have not even looked at the channel editor for this thing yet I have just been adding the honeypot transponders manually.

The audio PIDs that the receiver detected were not correct. Sorry I cant be more help. I cant recall what FW ver is on the one I have in service.

It is at a relatives home in "set it and forget it mode" Without being able to look at it, the version 's dont ring any bell with me off hand. I dont know why it is scanning in the for a PID and not what is actually needed to allow the AC output to be enabled.

Seems like I read somewhere the is a placeholder or a flag that represents the presence of AC3 data availability. I cant recall exactly, it's been a while back. This will allow the correct time to load for Channel Guide. Options: Next go back up to Installation. OFF Diseqc Switch. Dish Settings Satellite.. If these Sats shift correctly, proceed to next step.
