Hi, I am not new to FTA satellite but today was the first time that I ever tried to upgrade the firmware of my Nfusion Nuvenio NV HD receiver. I followed the instructions (1) copying the.bin file to a USB drive (2) plugging into the front of my receiver (3) turning on and fumbling with the menus... Blah, blah, blah. It all seemed to work because the menus definitely have a different look and feel except for one glaring problem: the satellite list is not updated. Am I missing something? Galaxy 19 is still called Galaxy 25, Galaxy 18 is still called Galaxy 10R.

In addition, the frequencies are not the updated ones that you see at lyngsat.com. Worst of all AMC 21--my favorite bird--isn't on the list. Isn't the whole point of the upgrade to get the updated list of satellites and their frequencies?

Can someone clue me in? Thanks in advance.

Click to expand.Yes! I can add satellites and frequencies but I thought a firmware upgrade would come with an updated list of satellites and frequencies. Am I wrong about this? I learned after buying it that it was a hack box. I didn't suspect because I thought hack boxes were always low end and this receiver is not low end. I also learned that it is a failed hack box. They won't hack anymore.

This is the reason I was able to pick one up cheap on eBay. In fact, there are lots of Nfusion Nuvenios on eBay right now. A firmware upgrade might mean bug-fixes for the system software, or an updated satellite list, or a combination of changes. And with fta receivers they seldom ever include a Change File to show you exactly what you ARE changing if you do the update. What I do is make all the changes to the sat-file, add new sats/change names, etc.

After doing a factory-default, then save that file to a USB pendrive. Sometimes I will save the file after I've done a late night blind scan on the satellites so that at least the regular channels will be saved in my backup file too. Disney Channel. When my receiver gets overloaded with empty transponders from blind-scanning, I can just factory-default the box again, and reload my sat-file without all the work again.

(October 2009) () Over-the-air digital TV signals do not reach very far outside the city in which they are transmitted. FTA Receivers can be used in rural locations as a fairly reliable source of television without subscribing to cable or a major satellite provider.

Terrestrial broadcasters use some of the nearly 30 North American satellites to transmit their feeds for internal purposes. These unencrypted feeds can then be received by anyone with the proper decoder. Satellite signals are normally receivable well beyond the terrestrial station's coverage area. Enthusiasts also use FTA receivers to watch the numerous that are present on many of those satellites. In theory, a viewer in (the smallest North American TV market) could have received what little local and programming is available terrestrially, alongside a K u band free-to-air dish for additional commercial networks (such as individual and affiliates from, formerly at 123°W) and educational programming ( at 125°W). There is no assurance that any individual FTA broadcast will remain available or that those which do remain will continue broadcast in a compatible format - in this example, such a viewer would have lost ABC and Fox in mid-2009 due to Equity's bankruptcy.

(October 2009) () Free-To-Air receivers generally use the same technology standards (such as DVB-S, MPEG-2) as those used by pay-TV networks such as Echostar's and BCE's. FTA receivers, however, lack the smartcard readers or decryption modules designed for the reception of pay-TV programming, since the receivers are designed only for reception of unencrypted transmissions. On occasion, where a pay-TV service's encryption system has been very seriously compromised, to the extent that it can be emulated in software and without the presence of a valid access card, hackers have been able to an FTA receiver's software and add the necessary emulation to allow unauthorized reception of pay TV channels. Manufacturers, importers, and distributors of FTA receivers officially do not condone this practice and some will not sell to or support individuals who they believe will be using their products for this purpose, use of software usually voiding any warranties.
