Iview 3200stb manual5/17/2023 Generally, a tuner should have at least PCM (converted to stereo) and RAW (DD pass-through) settings. But even on the 3200, to be safe I still use a powered HDD or hub, or one of the SanDisk Ultra thumb drives known to work.I'm not sure. But you have to weigh that against the disadvantages (no component video output, no front panel). I think the signal strength scale varies a lot more than the actual tuner sensitivity.An advantage of the smaller 3200 model is its external power supply if it dies, just replace it. I've tried various iView and HomeWorx units over the years and they've all received pretty much the same channels and had trouble with the same channels. The last 3500s with this switch had a different chip and required different, incompatible firmware, so a change like that could lead to accidental brickings ![]() If they do, that's going to be confusing. That didn't work on the 1903 version for the 3200, and they didn't fix anything else.) Do the 3500s shipped with this version once again have a Channel 3/4 switch in back? That's the only reason I can imagine for dropping the Modulation setting. (Besides, I checked time-shifting and it worked fine. My first thought was that this firmware was actually meant for the 3200, but System / Information clearly shows 3500STBII. ![]() The only difference I've found is that the "Modulation" setting on the 1903 version isn't there in the 1911 version. As far as I can tell, they didn't fix a damn thing between 19. All the little annoying bugs I listed for 1903 are still there in 1911. In fact, I found almost no differences between the 19 versions of the 3500 firmware. I also didn't encounter the Channel Rescan bug. So it may only appear under certain unusual conditions. I was unable to duplicate the Schedule Edit bug, but did say that his box stopped having this bug too, after a power cycle. I'll see what I can find (besides the Schedule Edit bug and the fouled-up SW version string).Įdit: Flashed the new version (which I'll call the 1911 version) onto my 3200 and played with it a bit. (Typical mStar firmware quality control.)Īnyway, I downloaded this version for testing. Based on the file name, the correct date is apparently 20191121V5.0. Second, iView posted this firmware version on their Web site just a few days ago. ![]() It's supposed to be a date, in YYYYMMDD order, but there are nine digits, not eight. First, that SW version has an extra digit. Thus, to anyone having this bug, I strongly recommend updating your firmware.Ĭlick to expand.I just noticed a couple of things. (Ion affiliates seem to be some of the worst for triggering this bug.) Because the recording schedule for these channels is damaged, it's nearly impossible to record shows on those stations reliably. Most TV stations don't change the PSIP data that triggers a rescan very often, but a few seem to have some obscure change or other every few days, thus triggering frequent rescans. For instance, the new iView 3300STB has the bug. Iview actually got this fixed back in 2016 with the "1511" version I prefer, but it has come back occasionally. ![]() The worst part is, the recording schedule for those channels is usually lost or scrambled as well. If so, it's a bad one: whenever something in a station's PSIP data changes (aside from the time and EPG), the box rescans the station's frequency as if you'd gone into the menu and done a "Manual Search." Any customization you'd done to the channels on that station, such as deleting, skipping, renaming, etc. Universal remote controls are available at most of the electronic spare part selling shops and by Online shopping.Click to expand.Uh-oh that sounds like the channel rescan bug. For more details about the set-up codes, visit the site Check this site too. Never accept a remote control, that hasn't both of this. Please note: Every new universal remote control will have set-up code list, and set-up procedure along with its pack. Check which brand remote control has set-up code/s to your device brand, and buy that one according to availability? Brand name of the remote control isn't a matter, but it should have set-up codes in its code list, to the device brand you have. Both the sites have set-up code list and set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. After confirming this, check the sites linked here. There are 3 digit, 4 digit, 5 digit, 2 digit and even single digit codes, to some brand devices. To select a proper universal remote control, you should know about the number of digits to its set-up codes. They can either give you a genuine remote control to your device, or can direct you, from where can you purchase a suitable one. If you wish to buy its original remote control, contact the authorized service centre, or authorized dealer to your device brand.
