Did you buy this online or where? I need a genuine seller and H.265 decoder.
I bought one from Abowun about 1 month ago. I sent him money and he sent it through a driver to Abuja.

It's between 12-13 thousand but with good bargaining, you may get something between 11,500 or something 12 k.

Not expensive, you can buy from Aliexpress... if you prefer standard shipment then you will wait for about 45days for delivery.. Hellobox smart2 is the name...

First of all, MBC channels has never transmitted on multiTV position from day one. So your question might totally sound out of place for many who reads it.

But that's by the way.. Have you been able to resolve the issue yet?

Dear friend, a good installer tracked both Mbc(26east) and multi tv(28east)with a single lnb..and since this combination is tricky and difficult especially if the dish is not big enough, a shift of a few millimeters can "disappear" the Mbc..I would prefer you get the first guy who did it and watch as he resolve it .. from there you will have an idea about how to go about it..

Nice idea... Which brings the question, what if the person is not willing to share that knowledge with him? So as to enable him to always have access to the money in his pocket.

Let's look at this situation from a logical perspective. For the guy to choose to come here to seek for solutions, rather than calling the person that either helped him to set it up for free or monetary reason. Should have given us a clue that there is a chance that he doesn't want to go that route.

Please don't get me twisted... Rather observe many questions that are being asked here of late, and you will notice that at one point or another many of the people asking that question. Have an existing setup, which have been done by someone who knows the job but for reasons best known to them. They chose not to get the person involved but instead come here to seek for guidance on how to do it themselves. Now imagine what this forum would have been like if the person/ people that have that knowledge here keep telling them to go back to their installer to gather such an information. Don't you think the true purpose of this thread would've been defeated?


Remember I said don't get me twisted. One love

Yes
Thanks bro.

To be more specific, I have 51e attached to 32e which is primary. Can 16e be added? It's on 60cm dish. I have tried but to no avail. So I need to know first if it can be done. Thanks.

Dear friend, I get it and do appreciate your contribution here... however some folks assume installation is some simple "job" and they can also do it without much effort.
This "addictive" pastime we are all involved takes a lot of time and effort...all we are taking about today has been discussed multiple times and folks just have to take the time to read past posts..
Successfully installed first dish in 1993(Astral 19) just by observation, and also learnt a lot reading post on this forum.
The simple installations are for newbies but the complex ones, the newbies must have some experience else the "teacher" will have some challenges as well..
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Nobody: 10:13am On Oct 27, 2020
@Digitman, my dear friend you have been around for a long time hence lots of experience and good information.. share with us some new stuff too..
Stay blessed man!!

A picture of your set up as it is presently will help in giving you solution.
Pls upload your dish pix and especially the lnb.
Although I suspect seriously that lnb has shifted from its original position.

Well, I will say yes. Because the app is linked to a subscribed card . So whatever subscription is in the account that is linked to the Dstv app, will become the amount of channels that will appear in the app.

.so for football lovers, you have to look for an account that starts from compact sub... For the super sports channels that make sense to appear.


... Just a tip, that viewing centre guy around your neighborhood might just be absolutely ignorant of the app or don't need it or know how to go about it. Just helping him to set it up, gives you that front seat in the passengers section.

It can still be an uncle, an aunt, a bros, a friend, a client that you can help set it up and gain your own seat in the front passenger.

So the above are some possible way of having such access if yours is not on that amount of sub.
