Hi Bill,
The decoder is not routed via my Smart DNS/Dynamic DNS.
I have both the Astra and Intelsat dishes installed.
I installed the patch from bb4s and then did an update via ftp on the decoder itself.
Cheers,
Mike.

Hi Mike. We live fairly close to you, just south of Moncarapacho.

I looked at the Spanish website bb4s. They provide an IPTV service similar to mine from Marc Electronica but at a higher monthly service charge. I thought you said that the IPTV service on your Isocrypt box was free. How did you get it free?

I use the Isocrypt S1600 box for receiving Intelsat 907 UK TV channels as a backup/alternative means to the IPTV service but would switch to free IPTV if it existed.

Sorry Bill, I didn't explain that very well.
If you go to bb4s website, then Products and scroll to the bottom of the page there is a link to Intelsat 907 codes under Support. On that page is the patched software I used to set up my decoder initially. After it was all working correctly I then updated via the ftp facility.
I only noticed the Web TV option a few days later while having a play so I don't know at what stage it appeared!

Hi Mike. The patch is the same one I used 6 months' ago. I have only recently updated the Isocrypt receiver but there is still no change on the Web TV option. It is very dead. You must be very lucky to receive channels on it.

Hi, I have a mobile home near Moncarapacho with a dish. Who did you use to realign your dish to pick up the Intelsat 907?

regards

Tony

Hi Tony. I used Henrique on 917550968. He speaks a little English and is also a good electrician. Bill.

Thanks Bill, I'll check out Maplins and give Henrique a ring as I'm out again next month.
Fingers crossed the Sat doesn't get switched off or blocked!

Regards
Tony

Hi, I got the box from Maplins,now reduced to 49.99!
I'm coming over next month so will contact Henrique to realign my dish.
Question is where do I get the code from and how do I update the box?

Regards
Tony
