Problem watching Italian Freeview (tivuSat) on Samsung UE55ES8000

post #1 of 3

Hi,

I created a video on youTube http://youtu.be/co5V8mcDGG8 to highlight the problem I am experiencing with my Samsung UE55ES8000 TV and the Italian Freeview service tivuSat (www.tivu.tv). Using the Samsung's built in satellite tuner with the DIGIQuest SmarCAM tivuSat (http://tivu.tv/sat/prodotti/149/151/295/DIGIQUEST-SmarCAM-tivusat.aspx) and tivuSat smartcard not all encrypted stations show. Using the same tivuSat smartcard in an ADB i-CAN 1850S decoder (http://tivu.tv/sat/prodotti/149/241/244/ADB-i-CAN-1850S.aspx) everything works perfectly.

In this test the same Satellite cable was used. It was first attached to the TV after which it was unscrewed and attached to the i-CAN decoder.

Any help with resolving this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Today I posted the second video at, This came after suggestions from most of the players (tivuSAT, digiQuest and Samsung). After upgrading the BIOS to the latest version, performing a factory reset and trying to tune in again the problem remains.

In my opinion and the opinion of others the problem now seems to be the TV. I was asked whether the CAM adapter was seated correctly and if there might be dust to case the problem. I don't think so.

Is a change of TV motherboard something huge and risky?

Thanks

The problem has been sorted. It was a faulty motherboard. Thank you to all those who took the time to help.
