H any body recomend someone to check out my freeview digi recorder it was working fine when went to bed last night but showing no signal this morning pluged in a spare digi box i had and all ok. will do for now but cant record anything Thanks for any help
Its a thompson not sure of model no does dv3 mean anything? tried rescaning no joy just says no signal. as i said the spare box works ok so its not arial ect
You don't need to lose all the recordings on the DTI-6300 G1's to perform a software re-installation - and trust me, I know something about it. You can also perform other non-deletion actions on the G1's (and G2's) which may help resolve issues.
there are 2 barcode stickers on the underside does dti6300-16 mean anything. failing that one has a 12 digit no on it the other has a 14 digit no preceded by S/N which i presume will be the serial no
it's a 160GB G1 in that case. I am part of the software development team for these boxes.
Go to set-up, help and then press the blue button to enter the tuning information screen; go through the channels, and see if any are picking up a signal on either tuner.
Thanks for all this it does look like the box in your reply she who must be obeyed is watching corry ect at the moment on the spare box so i will either try later or tomorrow once again thankyou for your help i will let you know how i get on JOHN
We are solely responsible for the software, the hardware is (well, was, the 6300 along with the 6021 is now discontinued) developed by Technicolor im afraid. Though having said that, on the G2 and Vestel boxes, we have managed to lower the fan noise/speed for LPMA, but the hardware within the G1's does not allow this im afraid.
once again many thanks for your help i will try your sugestions and let you know what happens. i am thinking that if it does not work it wont be worth trying to have it repaired and just buy a new one !
