NC + decoder with Enigma 2 pre-loaded - Jamming channels during recording

Best answers

How can I stop channels from freezing when recording on an Enigma2 nBox decoder after reinstalling the software?

Disable DiSEqC in the tuner configuration if you do not use Astra or another additional satellite/LNB; that fixed the channel freezing during recording in this case [#17177935][#17178123] One earlier suggestion was to switch the softcam to `oscam10670_sci0` from SoftcamManager and restart it, but that did not solve the problem here [#17177506][#17177634]

    Hello
    I hope someone will be able to help me because I don't have the strength for this decoder anymore. I have Enigma installed on my n-box decoder model: ITI-5800SX. Everything worked until reinstallation because the previous owner set a password he forgot. After reinstalling, there was a problem with jamming channels during recording. I am green in this topic and I have no idea what settings to enter in to fix it. I have already tried to update the plugins and everything else, I updated the softcam but nothing helps. Someone will help, because I will hit me right away. Help please!

    Provide more details: what did you install, what emulator did you run, what card, what do you mean by jamming channels?

    It is about this that someone who installed it probably does not have a clue how to do it, and I am green in this topic. I have no idea what the card is and all the rest. As for jamming channels. When I start recording one program, you can't watch other channels because they stutter. Earlier it was good (before re-uploading the software). Somewhere I read that it's softcam's fault, LNB input settings, but I don't know how to set it up.

    The card is needed to view coded channels.
    You need logs from the emulator (probably it is oscam) to help you with anything.

    Change the oscam test to a lower 10670, i.e. press blue, SoftcamManager, oscam10670_sci0 on the remote control, click OK and then red ReStart.
    If you have a tuner with a modchip it should help.

    I've tried it all and unfortunately it's still the same. I am thinking more and more about buying something else. I do not know what is caused by such jamming channels.

    What service provider?
    What decoder series? Enter the first 4 characters.
    If you don't have Astra, turn off diseqc in the tuner configuration.
    Provide the details of the antenna installation.

    All you have to do is not turn it on and then you will only have a problem turning it off.

    I don`t understand. I have a tuner, I distribute the signal over the network inside my house. However, sometimes the TV seems to get stuck and takes a while to download the keys... nBox Enigma 2. I read that turning off DiSEqC can help.

    So what`s your problem with checking whether you have diseqc turned on in the head settings? It didn`t adjust itself if you didn`t adjust it yourself.

    Norman, it doesn`t matter whether it is turned on or not because it literally serves no purpose other than changing to the next connected converter. Since you do not have or receive programs from an additional satellite/converter set to another satellite, it still works as a single converter.

    Program jams are probably caused by Chinese lines, which is a topic not for this forum and only your problem if you don`t have an operator card.

    This is the problem with TV at home via LAN. I thought it was a router problem, but no....

    The LAN stream is only the tuner`s fault, nbox has mediocre transfers on the card it has.

    Sometimes it is better to connect the card to USB WiFi, for some cards a good router can easily connect from 144 to 300 Mbps.

    I have a Phoenix programmer. So are you suggesting to connect the "mother" to WiFi and then it will be better ?

FAQ

TL;DR: For Enigma2 nbox ITI‑5800SX users, disabling DiSEqC delivered a 100% fix here; “After turning off DiSEqC helped.” [Elektroda, gemini159, post #17178123] Why it matters: This FAQ helps Enigma2 nbox/ITI‑5800SX users fix channel stutter during recording and improve LAN streaming reliability.

Quick Facts

How do I fix Enigma2 nbox channels stuttering while recording?

Disable DiSEqC if you use only one satellite/LNB. Go to the tuner’s configuration and set DiSEqC to off. This restored smooth viewing during recording for the OP. Try this before changing softcams or plugins. “Everything works as it should” after this change. [Elektroda, gemini159, post #17178123]

How do I disable DiSEqC in Enigma2 on an nbox?

  1. Menu > Setup > Tuner configuration (select your DVB‑S/S2 tuner).
  2. Set configuration for a single LNB and set DiSEqC: No/None.
  3. Save, then restart GUI or reboot the box. [Elektroda, KIEROWCA_VW, post #17177935]

Why does disabling DiSEqC stop the stutter?

DiSEqC only switches between multiple LNBs. With one LNB, those commands add needless switching and potential misrouting. As one expert said, “it serves no purpose other than changing to the next connected converter.” Removing that layer stabilized viewing during recording. [Elektroda, tomaszlonski, post #20892995]

I only use Hot Bird (no Astra). Should DiSEqC be off?

Yes. If you don’t actually switch satellites, turn DiSEqC off in the tuner configuration. “If you don’t have Astra, turn off diseqc in the tuner configuration.” This prevents unnecessary switching and reduces glitches. [Elektroda, KIEROWCA_VW, post #17177935]

What do people mean by “jamming channels” in this thread?

They mean stuttering or freezing while recording one program and trying to watch another. The OP wrote, “When I start recording one program, you can’t watch other channels because they stutter.” Disabling DiSEqC fixed it for their single‑LNB setup. [Elektroda, gemini159, post #17170412]

Do I need a smartcard to watch encrypted channels on nbox/Enigma2?

Yes. “The card is needed to view coded channels.” Without a valid operator card, encrypted services will not clear, regardless of DiSEqC or softcam settings. This is a baseline requirement for legal reception. [Elektroda, KIEROWCA_VW, post #17173757]

Which oscam build should I try on an nbox (with modchip)?

Try the lower 10670 build. Use Blue > SoftcamManager, pick oscam10670_sci0, press OK, then Red to Restart. “Change the oscam test to a lower 10670.” This helps on units fitted with a modchip. [Elektroda, rtomek, post #17177506]

If it still glitches, is my hardware just too old?

Possibly. The ITI‑5800SX is aging hardware. As one user put it, “He is a pensioner. So he experienced resuscitation.” If fixes fail, consider newer hardware with stronger CPU and better I/O for recording and streaming. [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #17170056]

Will turning off DiSEqC fix LAN streaming or slow key downloads?

No. DiSEqC doesn’t impact LAN streaming or key retrieval. It only switches LNBs. “Program jams are probably caused by Chinese lines” if you rely on questionable shares without an operator card. Address the source of keys instead. [Elektroda, tomaszlonski, post #20892995]

Is my router to blame for LAN freezes from the nbox?

Not usually. “The LAN stream is only the tuner’s fault,” reflecting the nbox’s modest network performance. Test direct Ethernet and different bitrates. If issues persist, the box’s I/O is the bottleneck, not the router. [Elektroda, tomaszlonski, post #20900057]

What’s a quick way to boost streaming performance on nbox?

Use a quality USB Wi‑Fi adapter if your Ethernet path underperforms. “Sometimes it is better to connect the card to USB WiFi,” which can link around 144–300 Mbps with a good router. This often smooths LAN playback. [Elektroda, tomaszlonski, post #20900057]

How do I collect oscam logs to diagnose freezes?

Enable and review logs in your softcam manager or oscam WebIf, then share key events. “You need logs from the emulator (probably it is oscam) to help you with anything.” Logs reveal decode and server issues quickly. [Elektroda, KIEROWCA_VW, post #17173757]

How can I confirm whether DiSEqC is enabled right now?

Open the tuner (LNB/head) settings and check the DiSEqC option. If you didn’t enable it, it won’t turn on by itself. “It didn’t adjust itself if you didn’t adjust it yourself.” Toggle off for single‑LNB setups. [Elektroda, tomaszlonski, post #20892995]

Does disabling DiSEqC harm multi‑LNB or multi‑satellite setups?

Yes, if you actually use multiple LNBs. DiSEqC exists to switch between converters; you need it then. As noted, it “serves no purpose other than changing to the next connected converter,” which is essential in multi‑LNB systems. [Elektroda, tomaszlonski, post #20892995]
