Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Does your internet go off as well? There could be another device interfering with your wireless signals. Most of the times it happens using cheap quality wireless phones. Make sure your router is on a fair distance from the wireless phone.

Spiderbox is suppose to be pretty stable on Newcamd compared to CCcam, I would seriously consider a re-flash on your box and start a fresh to see if that cures the problem

yes router was changed still same probs when i take the spiderbox off and replace it with black panther 2card stb theres no probs. the spider is 18mth
old and still going strong ethernet as no probs but its ncamd when i check
it still shows connect 1card but scrambled channel so i reboot stb and recheck still shows connect 1card. so have to go into client setup and off and on with ncamd and then channels opens up its been like this a few weeks now allso
done factory reset would like to get it sorted as it records better then my other stbs with wd hardrive when it doesnt mess up.

northern, i have a spiderbox7000, with n/line and also c/line, never encounted anything like that with all the spiderbox chat ive read, i think that sounds like something on the way out to me as you tried plenty things, mine also 18 months old now.
lets hope someone has the solution, no doubt you asked on other forums??

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

That was a strange conflict,anyone know a good program to convert trp files recorded by spiderbox,the huge HD file sizes are off putting ,but think more people would use it if they could store the files after converting avi/divx.

Just found this info on converting TRP files


MpegStreamclip (http://www.squared5.com) to convert trp-files to mpeg-files.

Use Apple QuickTime 7 free player (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html) with MpegStreamclip, because this combination works better.

To edit "DVDVideosoft Free VideoDup" (http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/products...-Video-Dub.htm) for cutting my mpeg-files.

Thanks bro i got a nice program from give away of the day called Aisee soft total media converter,i can load trf files straight into it edit them then convert to file any type in HD ,tried most of them to find best quality for lowest file size and the result was Xvid at 4000kbs ,the quality is amazing ,think i was lucky to find a program that does everything.

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

just a quick question does anybody use a full epg on the spiderbox i have not found one around all i have is now and next

[Mobley3]

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

The EPG information is provided by the channel provider it does not have anything to do with the receiver, the Rytec files that were around apparently do not seem to be very reliable, maybe work better on some STB's than others.

Yes that was the one I was referring to, and as you say if you switched off you had to do it all over again and even then it seems to have been more trouble than it was worth.
