What's new

Viark VIARK TYPE BOXES

I've got the Viark 4K Sat, Viark DRS2 and GTMedia V8UHD here and I would say the GTMedia performs just as well as the Viark 4K Sat.

Zap time is nice and quick I would say less than 3 seconds for the most part (during which time it shows the 'buffering' msg.

I can cap a video from all 3 if you'd like?
Cheers. Video would be much appreciated. 👍
 
I pulled my list at the weekend as think I fooked something up in it, are any of you seeing random no signal messages at times that need a reboot on the V8UHD?

I've seen it when furiously flicking through channels (not the mucky ones on the vinegar strokes obviously), think it's just a bug in the firmware for now.

Just trying to get it working through the house via HDBaseT, what a pain in the arse that is. No wonder E2 kills it from that point of view with how easy that can be transmitted - I just discovered Dream Player on the Fire Stick and it's brilliant!

Yes I have reported the no signal bug, they sent me a test fw saying that it was fixed, but it isn't.

They have however fixed the 4K 50 resolution issue, so now it saves the setting after a reboot.
 
Ok this is my list.

28.2E in order (thx to hedges2016 for the base), all uk channels added to favs and channels renamed correctly (removed abbreviations)
13E (some channels added to favs)
19.2E (some channels added to favs)
16E
9E

This is the max that I can add and still get the list to open in STB Channel Editor.

Viark Sat 4K allows 26 favourite categories, but V8 UHD only see's the first 8, therefore I have moved the categories around a little so the 8 most useful are displayed first.

If anyone updates the list, then please post your changes, maybe if everyone add's a little we can quickly get an organised 53w - 45e multisat list.

Just remember if you scan any of the sats already included, then do not use the remove current channels/tp option otherwise it will wipe the currently added channels, also do not reorganise the list by setting to alphabetical (or similar) as it will reorder the channels for all sats.
This is so appreciated. I just installed this on my Viark 4K and it's way better than I managed. I had to switch some satellite settings to USALS etc to get it all working, but many thanks for this. (Obviously thanks to Hedges2016 too for the input).

Sorry forgot to mention that the lnb / usals settings will need to be reset after loading this list.

No worries. I just assumed you used something other than USALS. Do you know if I should be able to add more satellites if I wanted to? I was thinking of 30W maybe, but looking in Antenna Config, I'm pretty sure I did have it there before, but now I only have 28.2e, 13e, 19.2e, 16e & 9e. 16e & 9e don't get me a great reception with my dish, but I think I've picked up a fair bit on 30w previously.

***EDIT***Not to worry, I figured out how.
