Query: How to assign a channel to a Fav group?
What are the steps needed for assigning a listed channel to a favourites group on a V8 Finder?
Re: Query: How to assign a channel to a Fav group?
There is no fav button on the finder, so you can not assign fav's.
The V8 Finder uses the same user data file as the V7HD, Max and Combo units,(Excluding the terrestrial list on the combo).
You can assign favorites in a V7 and then load the file into the V8 Finder, or use the editor to assign favorite.
To access the fav lists in the finder you press the middle button an with the channel list up press the blue button to bring up the sat / fav list.

Thanks for the reply Feralkiwi. As I'm still finding my way around the V8, I don't at this stage wish to risk corrupting the operation through changing firmware, so at this stage I'm settling for an easier option of moving channels so that they appear in the list according to a preferred priority.
Once again thanks.
Once again thanks.

If you like you can send me your user data from the V8 Finder and I can assign the favorite you need.

Thanks, I appreciate the offer. However, all I really need is a short sorted list of channels from different satellites to take the trial and error guess-work out of setting up my H-H motor. (With the finder I can avoid the risks involved in repeatedly having to get up and down from the roof via a ladder to confirm adjustments ).Feralkiwi wrote:If you like you can send me your user data from the V8 Finder and I can assign the favorite you need.
