Sirs,

Need help: did a factory reset on my cignal box, but can't get past the installation setup with the signal lock screen - the one with the padlock. Help please!

TIA!

What do you mean sir? Choose your desired transponder Ex: SES7-NE8 then ok

Jrodulio · « **Reply #3213 on:** Dec 14, 2013 at 10:05 PM »

Yessir. After i pick the transponder, it goes to the signal strength screen. There's no other option to move forward at that point - it's just "press cancel to go to previous screen". So i'm basically stuck there. I have two boxes and i moved the working one to the location of the non-working one. Thanks.

it means your STB is not receiving a signal from the satellite.
better check your connections po

naphster · « **Reply #3215 on:** Dec 15, 2013 at 12:19 PM »

Yes the signal quality must always be 100% to move on. Or try to make a hard reset

Sir P4, anong nangyari sa WIN Channel ng Cignal? Ano kaya papalit nila?

rakistang_jeff · « **Reply #3217 on:** Dec 28, 2013 at 02:07 AM »

I am on Cignal Prepaid Plan 590. Talaga bang malabo ang channel 2 at studio 23? Parang sa antenna lang kinuha. Hehe.

Cignal thru Pldt DSL, any feedback on this?

andre · « **Reply #3219 on:** Jan 05, 2014 at 04:40 PM »

My cignal went kaput last friday. I've replace the lnb but still nothing. I hate it when things not working smoothly.

naphster · « **Reply #3220 on:** Jan 06, 2014 at 09:07 AM »

Just asking if you guys are having the same problem? I've noticed that NBA premium tv is not stretched on my 42 inch tv.

xgh0st12x · « **Reply #3221 on:** Jan 06, 2014 at 12:07 PM »

/\
do you mean youre getting the broadcast in 4:3 format?
Just checked mine now, 16:9 naman sya.

EDIT: i think i know what you mean. parang it doesnt occupy the entire screen nga.
This is when my Samsung LED was set to "screen fit" mode. pero naayos sya nung nilagay ko sa '16:9' mode.

Yes sir it doesn't occupy the whole space with me, I'm using Devant TV.

Back to normal now.

mastahmind · « **Reply #3224 on:** Jan 11, 2014 at 04:05 PM »

guys pwede pa post ng sample feed ng channel 2 and 7, as compared sa channel 5, sa mga naka LED na 42 and up.

Sa nababasa ko parang ang common gripes is malabo daw channel 2 and 7?

dmag08 · « **Reply #3225 on:** Jan 11, 2014 at 09:58 PM »

sir pentium4 may balita ba kung kelan madadagdagan ang hd channels sa plan 1290 at kung ilalagay ba sa plan 1290 ang mtv hd live?

pentium4 · « **Reply #3226 on:** Jan 11, 2014 at 10:24 PM »

they normally add in new or change channels by January or early Feb before they do the National Conference.
If I remember correctly that was the case last year as well.

dmag08 · « **Reply #3227 on:** Jan 13, 2014 at 02:38 PM »

thanks sir..

scofield · « **Reply #3228 on:** Jan 15, 2014 at 02:14 PM »

Sir nag apply ako nito ngayon lang. Hindi pa activated yung account ko.
Bakit hanggang 1080i lang ang maximum resolution nung skyworth hs8871 na binigay. Pero sa box nakalagay upto 1080p.

At sa skyworth website may built in media player daw. Pero hindi ko mahanap kung paano paganahin/ piliin yung built in media player ng sat box na skyworth? Or disabled siya ng cignal?

Paano rin yung time lapse? Kasi yung manual na kasama sa box manual na ng cignal tv eh. Wala yung manual na original.

Thanks

skooter · « **Reply #3229 on:** Jan 15, 2014 at 02:24 PM »

walang cable company in the planet ngayon dat provides 1080p full hd na content...actually ang native resolution on most HD content sa mga cable providers is only 720p sir....if i were u don't set your STB box to 1080i kasi pangit ang motion resolution yan...mababa ang resolution kapag motion ang pag-uusapan at saka 1080i's motion are not silky smooth...so set your STB box to 720p. ang setup ko sa bahay ito.. 720p sa STB box den set my tv's picture size to 16:9 this way your tv will do the upscaling to full hd w/c is 1080p provide yung tv mo has a native resolution of 1080p.

scofield · « **Reply #3230 on:** Jan 15, 2014 at 03:53 PM »

Ok sir.

So para saan naman yung usb port sa likod ng stb? Nabasa ko sa skyworth may built in media player daw ito. At yung time lapse. Etc.

Thanks

skooter · « **Reply #3231 on:** Jan 15, 2014 at 05:46 PM »

sabi ng taga cignal rep. hindi pa daw supported yung USB port nayan. i understand pang recording yan.

naphster · « **Reply #3232 on:** Jan 16, 2014 at 05:20 PM »

d pa po supported yung function na un pro naka ready na cya, cignal will update the software once na magdecide cla na ipagamit un

scofield · « **Reply #3233 on:** Jan 17, 2014 at 08:47 AM »

Ok sir salamat.

Activated na yung cignal tv ko. Observation ko yung mga free to air channel medyo pangit mas mababa ng konti yung quality compared sa sky cable pero mas maganda kesa sa antena especially yung channel 2.

Yung mga cable channel na sd ok lang yung clarity.
Yung mga hd channel malinaw at sharp talaga.

Tapos bakit wala dolby audio signal sa hdmi?

Sinubukan ko kasi gamitin yung optical out ng tv ko walang sound na lumalabas sa external speakers ko. Kailangan ba talaga sa spdif padaanin?

jayz28 · « **Reply #3234 on:** Jan 17, 2014 at 09:04 AM »

May nakatry naba nito na taga cavite? saw a sat station sa may bandang imus. any inputs?

scofield · « **Reply #3235 on:** Jan 17, 2014 at 10:09 PM »

Ang pangit talaga ng mga free to air channel. Pero ok naman yung hd channels. At totoo nga meron ngang dolby audio signal yung mga hd. Hehehe

Meron na po ba nakasubok sa inyo gumamit ng mga cable tv signal amplifier? Effective ba? Naka lock in pa naman ako ng 24 months dito....

Thanks

I don't know kung saan i attach ang cable signal amplifier if you had one..

xgh0st12x · « **Reply #3237 on:** Jan 17, 2014 at 10:56 PM »

i dont think cable signal amplifiesrs would make a difference.
remember that cignal braodcasts digitally and not analog.
so, it's either you fully get the signal that they broadcast, regardless of the quality - or you dont get it at all.

Ok thank you sir.

Update uli: kung ang tv nyo ay may feature na "time machine" time shift" etc like yung sa mga lg tv. Hindi pala pwede mag record sa hdmi signal ng cignal. Hindi ko lang alam kung sa component video kung gagana. Hehehe sayang bumili pa naman ako ng flash drive pang time shift sana. Hehehe

skooter · « **Reply #3239 on:** Jan 19, 2014 at 04:42 PM »

was able to interface my pace cignal hd box to my xbox one - cignal stb box hdmi-out to xbox one hdmi-in/ then finally to my samsung f8500's hdmi-in and the results was that the PQ was so amazing to look at. my xbox one was able to feed a solid pure 1080/60P signal image to my tv, couple w/a hardcore DTS sound and the motion are so smooth(motion interpollation feature is turn OFF at my tv). HBO HD / NBA Premium HD / FOX HD never look so good this before parang blu-ray quality yung image hehehe.....
