Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

Hi, I finally got my SD5000 to work on a cline, turned out to be just bad luck with the lines etc, my box was fine.
Just gone for a 12 month guarantee ;-) and have been sent a "n" line but just wondered what "port to" on the menu meant, I cant seem to change it but still curious.
So far nothing clears, so am I doing something wrong? or is it yet another bad line?
I changed Softcam to Newamd
Input type Domain (the same as entering cline)
Port,authorisation as per cline

One thing different though (from cccam)

red button now says "Card info" instead of "information"
press it I get "Cas ID 0x0963" Cas type "NDS"

So I exit all menus and get connections 1 on screen.

But no pictures.

So those with a SD5000 can you help?

Maybe it is the fault of the current f*rmware you use on your box. I think it doesn't work well with the function you mentioned. Try to reflash it with another one. That might help you.

If my post was useful to you, please push 'thanks' button.

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

I dont suppose there is a VASIKS "latest" Spiderbox patch for the Spiderbox HD9000 ?

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

There is for all models some months ago.

There is absolutely no point in putting on that patch if you are not subscribed to that service, all it will probably do is give you random glitching as it tries to connect to the service. I have already posted before on this, and it definitely will not clear any channels for you without a subscription.

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

And besides the cost, it is like the secret service on their forum

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

So much for the theory that the latest patch is the best!
I reverted to 2.15 from 2.32 and now everything is working fine, apparently there was a bug with the nline routine.
12 months for a tenner! happy bunny here!

Perversely now I have finally got it working I am thinking of getting a 6000 for the HD Channels.
Could someone tell me what the EPG is like, as if I am going to get this past the wife it needs to be on a par with the sly box

While I do not have a 500SD I have read quite a few posts on it.the general conclusion seemed to be that the 2.15 patch was better when using a Cline.

Scooterman, yes you are quite correct. Thats how it works, but there was an additional line after port which said "port to" I wondered what it was?

Thank guys, I appreciate all your comments, I got a test cline which did work fine with 2.32 but when I got a nline it failed totally to clear although it did indicate a connection, I went back to 2.15 and got it all working so I stopped there!
I do have all of the versions somewhere, but as long as it works I will stick with it.

As I said, now I am thinking of getting an upgrade to take advantage of the HD channels (I didn't have an HDTV when I got my 5000).
But my wife is not impressed with the epg, she wants to be able to scroll down and pick out a programme to watch or plan what to watch later like the sly box.
Any suggestions?

Re: Spiderbox Owners Chat!

For Spiderbox HD6000, as you can see in the pictures scrolling down or up to every channel you can see it's EPG .
The Advanced Timer allows you program to watch or record 1 to 8 events .
