harley Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 HAVE READ THAT IF YOU TUNE BY FREQUENCY THAT CHANNEL CHANGE IS QUICKER, MY BOOKLET DOES NOT EXPLAIN HOW TO DO THIS, IT RECOMENDS TO GET A TECH. GUY!......CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW IT`S DONE? LOC. IS DANDENONG VIC.
mtv Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 It would help if you mentioned the STB make & model. I can't see any requirement for a technician just to tune channels into a STB.
harley Posted December 6, 2008 Author Posted December 6, 2008 It would help if you mentioned the STB make & model.I can't see any requirement for a technician just to tune channels into a STB. HEALING MODEL 892
I am not a duck Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 Channel change is slower if the channel has a frequency offset, and is tuned in using channel numbers. To get around this, it is better to search for channels using the actual frequency of the channel.The manual does not include details on how to tune channels manually. It suggests contacting an installer. Presumably Healing HHT892. Do an auto tune. It is not a big issue.
mtv Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 Manual tuning by frequency is only helpful if there is a problem with the automatic tuning. (But you don't really need a tech to do it). I've never had the need to tune one manually, as the auto-tune has always worked perfectly on every box of that model I've installed. All digital tuners have a slight delay when changing channels (compared to analogue) as the receiver has to first lock onto the digital data stream and decode it, before being able to display it. Some tuners are faster than others at performing this process, however, I have not found the Healing HHT892 to be slow by comparison to other digital tuners. If your digital signals have a lot of bit errors, the tuner will take longer to correct the errors and will take longer to lock. Do you have any pixellation or sound chirps or loss of reception at times? That is an indication of high BER (Bit Error ratio)

dvduser Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 NO BER PROBLEMS......THIS BOX TAKES 6-7 SEC TO CHANGE ......MY OLD DIGITEC WAS 2-3 SEC. STOP YELLING
harley Posted December 6, 2008 Author Posted December 6, 2008 STOP YELLING I`M NOT YELLING......I PREFER TO TYPE THIS WAY .....SORRY IF IT DOESN`T MEET YOUR APPROVAL.
