Menh!!
I am speechless, no words to describe how grateful I am. Such a sacrificial, resourceful, and blessing fellow, you are, to many on this thread.
We can only but try and allow God to perfect the rest. After all we are nothing but just an instrument in the hands of the creator. Anybody who allows himself to be used by God, will in turn be useful to himself and his generation. I remain humbled.. One love

If it is a tv with inbuiit decoder function, it might not have multistream capability or h265.... Same happens to some decoders too, not all decoder has multistream and h265/264.
Your response to his post is far from why he said that. I guess you never really followed the series of his post that lead to that.

His situation has to do with the audio of the free view channels not coming up. Which has nothing to do with multistream. So if you have a work around to that, you can share with the house.

By the way it's a Samsung smartTV . So anybody with a solution to that can please update the house.
One love

I am using h265 but I observe, on my screen, it's displaying h264, the screenshot below. Is this normal?
I don't know if you were here when we use this layman's analogy to describe H.256 decoder?

Take H.265 decoder as your modern DVD player and H.264 as a VCD player.

As you already know, the DVD player will play any VCD disc. But the vcd player cannot play any DVD disc.

Now in relation to your question, you will notice that when you insect a vcd disc on your DVD player, on the screen it will show you that the disc inserted is on a vcd format.

Now translate that to what you are seeing on your TV screen, then you will understand that , the decoder is only telling you that the channel you are viewing is transmitting on an H.264 format.

No doubt! You are a blessing to many on here. Thanks, plenty.

But activation or not does that stop from me making use of the decoder for another satellites now? Also, I want to ask, does the exclusive channels ( mytv) has an expiry date or months?

Lest I forget, lastly, must the activation be done when I am already @51e? ...and where can these codes be found?
Really sorry I lost sight of this message yesterday.

To your first question, which I believe you must have resolved, you don't need activation to view other channels in the same sat or other satellite.

Secondly the exclusive channels has a duration of one year and can be renewed with 3k5 on a yearly basis

Thirdly you really don't need to be in 51.5 degree to activate. But what's the point of going through the activation process if you have not scanned out their channels?
.
Most people stay for months, years before even bothering to activate it, if they are just using the decoder for other free to air purpose. But the beauty is that, the one year free sub will always be there till the day, week, month, or years you choose to activate it.

Finally, you can find the codes at the system information menu

Serial number is at the button of the decoder

Baba, u are on points, all u posted are valid. 28.2E is secondary, I just put it on 26E. I have done some adjustments, bam! The signal pops up, got all the channels, but still not stable. Lnb should be on what time? 2'oclock, 3, 4, or 5?

Thanks man.
Most of the time is either 4 or 7

But you can still use that last frequency I gave you to do the signal boosting

How true it is that the newest strong, H265, multistream decoder comes with myTV channels? I am lost can someone tell me how to go about it, tp, etc?
http://www.mytvportal.net/pairing.aspx

The above link gets your decoder activated, should you choose to do it yourself.

Just three things you need to get correctly

Stb id

Stb serial number

Stb code number

Once you input them correctly and click on Pair..

Voila!! You just got yourself how to activate. Wait a few minutes and the channels will open

sorry for the late response, I got hit last night.
I have both firmwares, the second one made me lose my sub on mytv. but I restored it back using the first link firmware. still nothing came up on that frequency
Please take note that the signal on 12645 v 30000 does not necessarily come up because your dish is facing 28.2 e (Joy tv) Because the signal is not the same strength as that of joy tv. However you can possibly solve this by making sure that the signal on 12525 v 30000 of high quality. So push the signal strength to the limit. From 70 percent up.

Another thing that will make the signal to not come up is when you're running a multi lnb setup and 28.2e is not your primary lnb. That way, you and I know you have reduced the possibility of other frequency in that sat bedside joy tv ((12525 v 30000 ) to have a better signal strength.


All the above listed is some of the possible cause of the signal not coming up when you have upgraded the software.

If I ware you, I will just forget other Sat position for now and turn my primary lnb to joy tv position and get the best, highest signal possible. Go to my decoder, check the signal on 12645 v 30000. Once it is green, I will scan, view the channels to be sure I have succeeded in getting the multistream function on my decoder. Before I will, then go back to my dish to put everything else in place to suit whatever old channels I was viewing before I decided to be interested in the multistream function.

You can try boosting the signal on this frequency to its maximum, then go back inside and try

12605 v 30000

I do not know if I am doing something wrong,

this frequency does not show anything on SRT497s too. I stand to be corrected.
You need to upgrade the decoder because the software that came with it when you bought it, does not make it to be able to multistream

You can try official

Or you can try unofficial.

Maybe you should just delete all the channels with no audio and rescan your decoder.

I am here to testify about seller ' Abowun.

Well, having checked and checked various online stores for the latest ( strong decoder) h265, S2× multi-stream compliant, and found the price way too high or rather, overpriced. I felt I should announce my interest in that here which I did and was replied to by the said moniker above. So, I contacted Abowun but was shocked when he said he lives far in the north, I live in the western part. He requested I paid into his account before we/he can proceed with the business since he was already on his way to waybill one to Lagos but I was a bit skeptical and doubtful but I felt I should risk it after all the recommendation about him and all that.


I proceeded and made the payment online(including the waybill charge), he asked me to wait that he will, along with mine waybill mine with the one he was to send down t Lagos - still I was holding on to faith.


Long story short, he later called me in the evening to inform me that he's decided to do the purchase for me in Lagos so as I save cost, time, and stress of way billing it from the north. Sent the number of the seller ( he calls him his friend), and to my utmost surprise I received not just the decoder, would you believe Abowun also requested my account number and within 2-3 minutes I got an alert of the extra charge( money for the waybill) back into my account.




This is a guy I did not know from anywhere nor have I ever had any business transaction with, ever! But he went all through all that to make such sacrifice, refund my waybill money, and all of these without asking for any incentive not a charge for all the stress, time, and all just to get me that decoder.


I am penning this down this day because [b]Abowun[/b]your honesty and good work can speak for you on and offline, and whoever wants to do business with you now or in the future when making some research about you before going into the transaction will see and read about this.


Thanks so much! cool
It's called being selfless than selfish. A good name is a million times more better than the quest for the riches that come back to bite you in the ass. When you've long gone forgotten about it.

To Abowun... Thanks for being that brother this fta family can be proud to call our own.

Yes it is not coming up
Well if you have done all I listed and still did not get the signal. Then it's time to go to your dish and work on improving the signal. I guess your dish is a multi lnb setup?

Out of curiosity, what's the decoder you are using?

I can give you a page number but it's far better I give you something with more volume. Where you get to gather all the information you need about it. From various school of thought in this forum.


So simple go to the search bar and type the word multistream. Like 8 pages talks about it , the channels as well as the decoders doing such things.

Happy reading

Their official frequency didn't work. I tried this 12734 (H) 9160 and got about 10 channels. However, there is no audio. The images are displaying clearly but no audio is coming out. Is there anything i can do?
Still trying to wrap my head on why you're experiencing that. Because the audio is very much clear on three brands of decoder I tried it on.
