This is a true fta site, we do not discuss iks or any other form of hack here.

Blind scan issue that I have encountered. If you highlight more then one satellite and attempt to blind scan another then anything scanned in are kept in memory of the other satellite. For example, I blind scanned Express AM44 at 11w and then attempted to blind scan 20 and 22w, each time a channel scanned it appeared as being 11w although that wasn't the sat I was scanning. I am now scanning them individually with only one selected, which can be a pia. I noticed that x2 III has storage for 65 sats in total but the list that comes with the file only starts at 45w, I will create my own list.

Costa, are you on the latest file? Sept 5 is the current. you can download from your box. I can scan my whole arc at once with all checked with no problems.
Also sept 5 file allows for scanning just one sat with no need to un check others.

[Costactc]

First thing I did was flash the latest file. I have tried repeatedly with the same problem. I also had an issue while scanning Intelsat 25 at 31.5w on c band, ORTM scanned in on the x2 III as a radio channel and 2 attempts at rescanning only for tv channel did not result in opening that channel. I scanned in ORTM as a tv channel on my technomate 5402 without any issues.

I'm only doing KU at the moment, so I can't try that..I'll let you roll on and see if anything else pops up then we can report it.

[Costactc]

I am setting up a whole new satellite list as I go and am scanning all c band sats for now, I will do ku after.

Just so you now bro, a channel list backup cannot be done with this file..so you are going to have to do all over when the new files comes out.

You can do a full backup, but the problem is when there is a new file and you use the backup it will load the old software.

I just sent them an email about this and they are working on a channel list backup feature.

This is why we were waiting to fix bugs before selling to the masses.

I hope that the x2 folks did not take a step back on the blind scan and tuner sensitivity with a different chip as I'm thinking of purchasing the x2III.

[Costactc]

I highlighted all sats and was attempting to blind scan Ses 6 at 40.5w. As the first tp was about to scan in it was assigned to my first satellite on my list which is Express AM44.

Blind scan speed and tuner sensitivity alone are worth the price of this receiver, I know all issues will be addressed as they were in the x2.

When I scan all it will start at the highest bird, 125W in my case and work it's way down.

[Costactc]

It shouldn't have any issues scanning 1 sat at a time, I'm just wondering if the same would happen if I only used that sat list from the file? I know setting up my own list is tedious but it's what I like to do. I will reflash the file and try again.

[Costactc]

I just scanned 45, 50, 55.5 and 58w with no issues at all using there satellite list. It shouldn't make a difference if I create my own list or change a sat on the list to accomodate the birds I scan in from 11-43.1w.

[tanka2]

same problem about the scan and I eliminate the 45 and 46 and create the t12 at 15 west and hispansat at 30 west.Not complain the box are new and the picture very good.I scan Hispansat and t12 no problems

[chifut]

It's not about the STB ,it's about your location and how big is the toy ?/ dish/

You can do Database backup using External Devices/ Update By USB/ Backup/ Backup.abs. That will created a database ONLY backup. You can load back using External Devices/ Update By USB/ Userdb and look for the backup.abs you just created. This will only backup and bring back your database. No matter which revision of firmware your're using. It will NOT backup your entire system firmware. Just make sure you load back your backup database as Userdb.

I forgot to mention that you can download tools files directly from X2 ftp to your box using External devices/ ftp download. You can download files directly using the box

For the last 2 days I have lost the RSS News Feeds and all the IPTV channels. PIII is rebooting when trying to access IPTV.

[Costactc]

I've noticed that as well Carlos and for the life of me I cannot get the x2 III to scan in the 3720 H 8703 tp on G16.

At first, mine didn't scan KRBK either. For some reason it don't see the TP in 3720 or 3721. I enter the TP manually as 3724 and it show up quality immediatly. So I left the 3724 TP in the TP list and the box begin to catch the 3724 in all future blindscannings

Thanks Carlos, worked like a charm. I hadn't even realised that the 3724 tp had scanned in a previous blind scan without any channels, manual scan and both are up.

The RSS feeds are working okay for me, but the Internet TV is causing the box to reboot.

I sent them a heads up on this issue..

Thanks for reporting guy's.

Has anyone tried out recording with a timer set? Curious if it works as well as the prior X2.

[Costactc]

I haven't tried recording but the time and date are spot on, my box is hooked up to the net using the wifi antenna that came with it.

I'll try a timer tonight and get back..;)

I'm corious as to when X2 is planning to fix the selling price over $200 on ebay. People are beginning to guess what its based on the price.

That's $85 US on aliexpress.

I know thats the price range just wondering why they keep the 200 range in ebay

[Costactc]

You have to be careful on ebay, some people think they can charge an arm and a leg for their goods.

[cpr43]

IPTV back. For a box designed for USA, only 20 plus US station and over 40 Arabians!!

[ViP3R]

The price will be fixed and set in the next five days.. you can add your own URLS for IPTV, though I have not tried it yet.

Strictly for the "low information" voters, i.e, buyers. Heck, the same thing.

Non instructions whatsoever how to do it. Files must be in *.m3u8. I have tried it without success. Have no idea of the Middle East- arabians % sales but meanwhile it will be good to have more americas stations.

Did you ask them for some instructions on the IPTV? and ask them for more America's..

[cpr43]

I will PM

[eastof111]

I will PM

Were you given instructions on the correct name to use for the *.m3u8 file and what format to use?
