Installing LiDiC

Hi folks

After buying a ps1, I have now gone one step further to the LiDiC.
Having trouble installing the unit.
I have Foxtell so i want to connect that to the LiDiC. Do I need to rescan the stations or does it automatically detect the LiDiC?
I upgraded the firmware only last week. Do I need to obtain firmware for this unit and so where from.

Thanks for your help

Ray

You need at least version 197.

Have you gone into setup and enable the LiDiC and relevant settings?

Thank you

Excuse my dumbness about this but how do I go into settings and set it up. Have had a look and can't even find the LiDiC settings in there. I think I have firmware update of 192 and I thought that was the latest.

Thanks again and jind regards

Well as I said in the last post - download and install the latest firmware and then you will see the options.

192 is not the latest and has no LiDiC support.

Thanks Gully. got the latest firmware and have setup the LiDiC but cannot get a picture or sound from my Foxtell box.

Any clues would be much appreciated

Thanks

Have you selected the LiDiC services through the services list?

yes and There are the two lidic stations 950 and 951. When I select one all I get is a crackling noise from the speakers

How have you got it hooked up?

For me I just set it to:
LiDiC = Enable
Display = Full
Input 1 = Composite
Video Type 1 = PAL
Input 2 = S-Video
Video Type 2 = PAL

I also have to have the Audio Format, in the A/V Output menu, set to 5.1ch or I get no audio. Then I connect any S-Video equipment to Input 2 and switch the beyonwiz to ch 951.

You are watching via the normal beyonwiz outputs? Not via the LiDiC's Monitor output?

Thanks for all your help.
I seem to have got it working but don't really know what I did.
