All the Freesat Products are great,but sometimes they have issues like all technology today! To make Freesat products better i think the company should show to their users how to edit firmware files , so users and developers will try to make these products better, i also mean we can customize our freesat receivers and make them better! At the end the buyers and the company with profit because a company that allows customazing their own devices attracts more people just like Android phones!
Please Freesat can you show to people how to edit .bin firmwares!! I mean make it kinda "open source" .Give us a program how to edit firmware files like you gave us a program to edit .db files to edit channels list!! Please !!!
Please the users of Freesat if you agree with my request please sign this petition it takes only a couple of seconds so Freesat company with know that this request should be approved!
ALL THE USER PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION - https://www.change.org/p/freesat-compan ... ware-files

Guess that only 25 people support this shows not much interest, but then not many people are programmers who can edit such things without causing more problems.

Es como pedirle a coca-cola que nos de su receta secreta,las compaƱias electronicas no deben liberar el codigo fuente de sus firmwares para evitar la pirateria que como bien dice dishfarm042 solo unos cuantos tienen el conocimiento para manejarlo...mejor pidamos que los coders de freesat nos provean de actualizaciones con correccion de bugs y mejoras para nuestro equipo,saludos

never heard of an editor for a firmware bin.
editor only for editing satellites, tp and channels.

A year or two back I did see a firmware editor for the Skybox units on satelliteguys.
I went back to find it and could not. I suspect the powers that be have taken these programs to protect copy write.
