Update on tricolor tv gs 8306 from a flash drive. Why is new firmware needed

GS 8306 appeared in the summer of 2012, becoming one of the most compact Tricolor TV devices. The model allows you to view a package of high definition TV channels "Maximum HD".

Appearance

There is no digital display, which has reduced the power consumption of the receiver. The power supply removed from the case lowered the heating temperature of the device, which, according to user reviews, increased its service life. Power supply failure is the main reason breakdowns satellite tuners, and now, if necessary, it can be easily replaced with another.

Tuner "Tricolor" GS 8306 is produced in silver metal case small size... Side parts top cover rounded, which visually reduces the height of the receiver and gives it modern look... Top, chassis and rear panel are made of metal and the front panel is made of plastic. Above and below are located ventilation holes... The front panel is bypassed with a minimum On it there are buttons for switching the operating mode, channels and volume control.

The operating mode indicator is combined with the backlight of the Standby button. Its white and blue color, according to user reviews, is poorly distinguishable against the background of the front panel. There is a slot for a card on the side of the case conditional access.

The back panel contains:

  • input and output LNB IN and LNB OUT;
  • RCA connector for composite video output;
  • RCA connectors for left and right sound channels;
  • USB port;
  • HDMI connector;
  • connector for a 12 V power supply.

Filling

The Neotion NP6 + CPU is designed for budget standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) MPEG 4 devices and supports the use of secure communication technology. The microcircuit does not require an additional radiator, since its heating does not exceed 45 ° C. Motherboard receiver accommodates two strips random access memory DDR2 512 MB. ROM - based on 16 MB flash memory. Data exchange rates up to 35 Mb / s are supported. There is an 8KB EEprom 24C08RP used to store important parameters systems. In the receiving path of the presented receiver, the DVB-S / S2 unit of the Serit SP2230 MVb tuner is used. The input part of the unit uses the Montage Technology M88TS2022 tuner microcircuit. The demodulator is built on the Montage Technology M88DS3103 chip.

Distinctive features of the tuner unit:

The HDMI interface controller is based on the Analog Device ADV7520 chip supporting HDTV video format with a built-in HDCP encryption module. The card collector is located on a separate board and has additional plastic guides.

The LNB power supply is controlled by the Allegro A8293 regulator, which generates up to 8 voltage levels with a tone of 22 kHz and controls the load consumption.

The regulator is controlled via the I2C bus. There is space on the board for connecting the SD card slot and front panel display, which is reserved for the following receiver models. The receiver is powered by an adapter direct current voltage 12 V and current 2 A. There is also a 2 A fuse on the board.

Contents of delivery

GS 8306 has the same remote control as other Tricolor TV satellite tuners. According to users, it is lightweight and convenient, since the control buttons are concentrated in the center. There are buttons for calling information and other functions of the provider: "TV Mail", "TV Chat", "Order a movie". "Input Signal" is used to switch the signal between HDMI and CVBS interfaces. Powered by remote control 2

The kit also includes a Tricolor TV brochure and an operation manual.

Connection

To indicate the operating mode of the GS 8306, a backlight is used, which is created by 2 LEDs. The indicator mode is determined by the sequence of their switching on. These modes are as follows:

  • No light - the tuner is off. However, the receiver has a standby sleep mode in which there is no indication. The entrance and exit to it is made by the Standby button.
  • Continuous light - the receiver is booting after switching on or exiting standby mode. If the GS 8306 tuner does not turn on, the indicator is on, then most likely it is in download mode.
  • Blinking indicator - standby mode. The transition to the viewing state occurs by pressing the front panel channel switching button.
  • Lights up Bottom part indicator - operating mode, a signal is sent to the HDMI interface.
  • Lights up top part indicator - operating mode, the signal goes to the CVBS connector.
  • It is not possible to feed the HDMI and CVBS signals at the same time. When the receiver is turned on for the first time, the video signal is sent to the RCA / CVBS connector according to the 576i standard.

The audio signal is sent to the RCA outputs regardless of the interface.

Resetting the GS 8306 receiver settings will not affect the video output mode. No resolution control on HDMI output - only 1080i is fed. This can make it difficult to use the tuner with 720p TVs.

If the connected device sets the resolution automatically, it is possible that the setting of the image resolution external device is not perceived. The Tricolor TV receivers are rebooted and the HDMI interface is turned off.

Power consumption

Current consumption at 12 volts:

  • sleep mode - 100 mA;
  • Standby mode - 450 mA;
  • viewing at standard definition- 650 mA;
  • high definition viewing - 750mA.

In sleep mode, the loop output is disabled. The GS 8306 is updated via the tuner's USB interface.

First steps

When the receiver is turned on for the first time or during a reset, the “First Time Installation Wizard” is launched. The setup is simple and consists of the following steps:

1. Setting the menu language from three possible (English, Ukrainian, Russian).

2. Setting the region from the list downloaded from the satellite. If you select "Main", then the channels that are broadcast throughout the "Tricolor TV" zone will be found. Selecting a different region leads to the addition of channels.

3. Search for TV and radio channels "Tricolor TV". This mode starts after selecting a region. During tuning, the tuning indicators (level and quality) and a search progress indicator are displayed on the screen. The latter lasts less than a minute, then the receiver switches to viewing mode.

4. Repeated quick setup is possible with the "Search for Tricolor TV channels" function from the main setup menu. There are no other search modes. There is no need to adjust the antenna parameters. The GS 8306 receiver is intended for use in the standard Tricolor TV subscriber kit, and there is no corresponding menu.

Settings menu

The settings menu allows you to set:

  • Main and additional languages audio and subtitle.
  • Clock synchronization mode - automatic by satellite and manual.
  • Display format (no change, Letter Box, PanScan, Combined).
  • Analog video parameters ( PAL standard accepted by default). The image quality, judging by the reviews, is decent. Switching to SECAM mode increases brightness and leads to loss of contrast.
  • 4-digit PIN access code. As users have noticed, the lack of protection for the setup menu makes setting the code meaningless, since you can reset the settings and the PIN code to the factory settings.

View

The maximum number of TV and radio channels that can be stored in the device's memory does not exceed 1000. Their location differs from the usual scanning of the Tricolor TV package. Numbering starts at zero. You can choose how the list is displayed (in 1 or 3 columns), sorting alphabetically and in reverse order... There is no list editing function. There is no age restriction on viewing. The channel cannot be moved, deleted, renamed, blocked with a PIN-code, assigned to one of 5 lists, which can include both television and radio channels. The selection of your favorite channels can be carried out using filters. You can already edit them and change their position in the list.

The transition of the tuner to the sleep state leads to the loss of information about last viewed... When you turn it on again, the Tricolor TV receivers switch to the viewing mode of the “zero” number of the last selected list.

Tricolor TV broadcasts are coded by the conditional DRE access Crypt. A subscriber buying a GS 8306 receiver receives a smart card with a 14-digit DRE ID. The subscription status can be viewed in the "Subscriptions" menu. The switchover takes 3 days for SD and 4 days for HD mode. It is performed through the list called up on the screen or one by one. I have an opportunity fast switching list pages.

Utility functions

The GS 8306 receiver firmware supports the following service functions.

  • Program schedule for the week, including data on the genre of programs and their description. EPG loads quickly. TV guide window displays program data 8 favorite channels... There is a timer for watching programs.
  • Teletext.
  • Subtitles.
  • Alternative audio tracks.
  • Cinema hall. The window displays a list of available films, time before the start of viewing, genre, descriptions of announcements and films. The "My Sessions" service allows you to create your own broadcast schedule. TV mail. The service displays messages and attached images sent from the Tricolor TV Mail website on the screen.
  • TV chat. The service makes it possible to show text messages With cell phone... Messages are displayed in a window in preview mode.
  • Banners displayed when switching between channels. Advertise the goods and services of a provider or other company.

Changing the firmware

To update the tuner software using the USB connector, proceed as follows:

  • v root folder A USB stick you need to write a downloadable file;
  • insert the drive into the connector;
  • turn off and turn on the power;
  • after some time (about 30 s), a message about the start of the program loading should appear on the screen;
  • upon completion of the download, a corresponding message will appear;
  • remove the drive;
  • turn the power off and on.

Please note that after the update, the receiver's settings are reset to the factory settings.

According to users, the GS 8306 receiver is not without its drawbacks, but it is suitable for watching Tricolor TV channels in standard definition and HD mode. The receiver allows you to receive all packages provided by the operator "Tricolor TV": "Cinema", "Night", "Maximum HD", "Superoptimum", "Optimum". The tuner supports HDTV picture format, MPEG2, MPEG4 encoding. Despite the fact that the operator's software does not allow viewing the channels of other satellites and operators, the number and variety of frequencies provided by Tricolor TV, according to subscribers, eliminates this need.

The website of the manufacturer of equipment for the Tricolor appeared The new software for the GS 8306 receiver is firmware version 1.9.160.

This firmware was intended to replace software version 1.2.001, released several years ago. It must be said that firmware version 1.2.001 for GS 8306 is exactly the software with which the GS 8306 receiver began to work more or less normally and stably - it did not freeze, the picture practically did not catch the frieze, the channels switched quite quickly. With firmware 1.2.001, only one sore remained unresolved in the GS 8306 receiver - an external power supply 12v, 2A could fail, but the problem was solved by buying another unit at a price of 500-700 rubles. Even the above problem is not very common in the GS 8306 model.

And now, after several years of successful operation of the receiver with a proven and proven firmware for some reason it was necessary to release new software - version 1.9.160.

Well, they released a new firmware and released it. Usually after updating software Tricolor receivers begin to work more stably. It was hoped that after the firmware up to 1.9.160 everything will be fine.

On the website of the manufacturer of the model GS 8306, the following are indicated characteristics new firmware (see screenshot below):

Changes from previous version software:

  1. Modern graphical interface Stingray software
  2. Improved receiver stability
  3. Added functionality manual search channels
  4. Improved work of the application "Cinema" Tricolor TV "

Description of the characteristics of the new version of the software for the GS 8306 receiver - version 1.9.160 Picture - screenshot of the page at - http://gs.ru/support/manuals-and-software/gs-8306/

I would like to draw Special attention to point 2 of the description of the new firmware - the stability of the receiver has been increased !!!

In practice, we have encountered the following problems after flashing and after flashing the GS 8306 receiver to version 1.9.160
  1. the receiver is sewn through the air, and if the firmware is confirmed, it may not be successful - the firmware process freezes and the receiver remains in an unprocessed state. In this case, the old firmware has already been erased. That. the receiver turns into a brick. Its further restoration is possible only by desoldering the flash memory microcircuit, flashing it in the programmer and resealing it to the receiver. This is a relatively expensive procedure.
  2. Another problem with flashing is the long duration of its execution. People are beginning to get confused about whether the firmware has already completed or the procedure is still ongoing. Confused and unable to bear it, many of them impatiently disconnect the receiver from the power supply, and if the firmware has not finished yet, then the receiver again turns into a brick.

Those subscribers who are lucky and whose receiver, after a few hours, has nevertheless successfully updated to 1.9.160, will have to face other problems in the operation of the receiver, which worked stably before.

  1. The message “no signal” appears periodically while watching channels. After such a message, you can switch to another channel, watch it a little, return to the channel on which the message "no signal" appeared and continue watching the selected channel again for a while. But only until the next message "no signal" appears.
  2. From the description of the new firmware, it can be seen that it received the "modern graphical interface of the Stingray software". So the needs of this very Stingray exceed, according to our subjective feelings, the capabilities of the processor and memory of the GS 8306 receiver. This leads to the fact that the channels now switch much longer than before - not old firmware 1.2.001.
  3. When switching channels, especially when switching channels of different thematic packages, some receivers simply reboot.
  4. A pink tint in the image after turning on the receiver. Some users really faced the problem that after the firmware all their channels are shown in pink color... Although, maybe it's good to look at a picture in pink in our then 21st century. The problem is eliminated by overloading the receiver in terms of power.
  5. The picture can be terribly freezing on some channels. Our test receiver especially freezes the "Match HD" channel - number 103 in the channel list.
  6. If after the firmware the receiver has not turned into a brick and continues to function at the very least, then sew it through USB port back to stable firmware 1.2.001 will fail - there is a blocking
  7. Periodically, the receiver reboots by itself even without any action, such as changing the channel
  8. The audio and video tracks get out of sync periodically
  9. Periodically, the receiver simply freezes, especially when it is experiencing some kind of load, for example, when switching channels.

These are, perhaps, the main points that owners of the GS 8306 receiver with the new firmware 1.9.160 will encounter. And in our opinion, again, subjective opinion Most of these problems are due to the fact that the hardware power of the GS 8306 receiver is not enough to meet all the needs of the new Stingray software.

In light of all the identified operating problems with the new firmware 1.9.160, one can only guess about what kind of increase in the stability of the receiver's operation the software developer is talking about.

Now how to continue using the receiver on firmware 1.9.160

This is what we personally did with our own GS 8306 receiver to increase the stability of its operation. This is the method that was advised by colleagues who faced and sorted out the problems of firmware 1.9.160 before us - to increase the stability of the receiver with the received signal, the frequency (lower and upper) of the local oscillator must be set 1 MHz higher than the standard value - 10751 MHz against the standard 10750 MHz.

After the local oscillator frequency was set to 10751 MHz, the receiver stopped displaying the message "no signal" when viewing channels and began to work more stably when viewing and switching channels. It is already difficult to do anything more.

What else you need to know when using GS 8306 on firmware 1.9.160

The new firmware has changed the operating mode of the receiver. Now the receiver automatically detects to which video output the cable is connected to the TV. Depending on which video output the firmware detects the connection cable to that video output, it will send a video signal. In the event that 2 cables (HDMI and 3RCA) are connected to the receiver at once, confusion may arise and the receiver will not understand which video output to send the video signal to. Therefore, we connect only one video cable to the receiver at a time.

Another point is light indication at the receiver. If earlier the upper lit indicator meant activity HDMI output set-top box, then on firmware 1.9.160, only the upper indicator lights up means that the receiver is in standby mode and to start watching it, you must first turn it on. And after turning on, the receiver will automatically send a video signal to the detected video output.

Download the firmware 1.9.160 for the GS 8306

If you really need to, then the "wonderful" firmware for the GS 8306 receiver can be downloaded on the official website of the manufacturer of this receiver at http://gs.ru/support/manuals-and-software/gs-8306/

P.S. - After long troubles with the development of a new firmware for the 8306 receiver, a number of questions arose:

  1. why was it necessary to write new software for the receiver, if the old one worked stably and practically without any complaints
  2. when new software appears that will fix all problems and bugs in version 1.9.160

Digital Satellite HD Receiver

IMPORTANT!!! Stingray firmware for this receiver model with a weak processor is very unstable - possible problems:

  • loss of picture and sound
  • flickering when turning on electrical appliances and lights
  • freeze and slow channel switching
  • spontaneous reset to factory settings when power off
  • loss of signal from the antenna

It will not be possible to downgrade the previous version of the software via USB. PS (Only by soldering the flash memory and flashing it in the programmer)

Before updating, read the instructions in the archive.

Unofficial software:

Compared to previous software versions:

  • Operator selection menu has been modernized.
  • Implemented new interface the "Status" menu, which simplifies the work with this menu.
  • Improved general work receiver.
  • Appeared information block containing a description of the main payment methods for Tricolor TV services.

According to the comments of user vale9041 from the forum http://www.telesputnik.ru

Now it is possible to remember the settings of the receiver through the standby mode, even if it was disconnected from the power supply.

The procedure is as follows:

If you have just created favorites and turned off the receiver with the power cord, then turned it back on, the receiver will switch to the tricolor channel, return button with two circular arrows (the so-called LAST), we will find ourselves on the first channel created in the favorite.

If, when viewing a favorite, we transfer the receiver to standby mode from the remote control, then turn it on again, then later, when you disconnect the power from the network with a cord and turn it back on, the return button will return it to the favorites of the channel in which you put it on standby from the remote control. That is, the standby mode serves as memorization.

The same can be done with the volume ... If you set the volume to the maximum, and put the res into standby mode, then the next time the res is turned on, the maximum volume will be set. But this is on condition if you subsequently disconnect the res from the outlet with a cord.

you can do the same so that the receiver remembers the general list of channels in one column or three columns wide (view)... that is, the standby mode is memorizing what we want ...

Past releases

Compared to the previous version of the GS8306 receiver software / GS8305, the following changes have been made in version 1.0.49:

  • Improved algorithm automatic search channels "Tricolor TV".
  • The ability to delete the list of TV channels and radio channels formed by default in the All TV and All Radio lists has been removed.
  • At initial setup the channel numbered "0" is displayed.
  • Removed indication of pressing buttons in StandBy mode.
  • When switching to the list of radio channels for the first time, the receiver switches on to radio channel number “0”.
  • Optimized EPG performance
  • Implemented work with right polarization.
  • Service TV Mail. The "Delete mail" button has been renamed to "Delete mail".
  • Channel list. Functional button "Width" renamed to "View".
  • Fixed incorrect caption in HDMI mode"Volume scale timeout". In version 1.0.049, the inscription looks like: "Display time of the volume scale".
  • Confirmation dialog boxes are implemented from left to right ("YES" - "NO", the default cursor is "NO").
  • Improved work of the service "Cinema" Tricolor TV "
  • Improved compatibility of the receiver with TVs when connected to them via HDMI interface

Receiver firmware via USB service port

GS-8306 does not have an RS-232 (COM) port, but it has a service USB, through which it is flashed. For the firmware, we need the usual USB flash drive, and latest version the firmware file for the GS-8306 receiver can be downloaded above .

You can check which version of the receiver software you have installed in the Main Menu

DRE Info>Status


Firmware order:

1. File ssu_gsc_stb.upg copy to USB flash without renaming.

2. Insert USB flash into the receiver and reboot the receiver by power supply, you can do this by pressing the button "Stand by" on the front of the receiver. As soon as the power is turned on, the firmware process will begin, this will be indicated by a corresponding message on the TV screen.

Now all that remains is to wait for the end of the process. When the firmware is finished, a message about successful firmware will appear on the TV screen.


3. After the permission message appears on eject USB flash on the TV screen, remove the USB flash.

IMPORTANT! It is not recommended to remove the USB flash before the corresponding permission message appears on the TV screen, otherwise the receiver will be damaged.

Rollback to early version is not possible, in the receiver you can replace the software with either current version, or a newer one.

If the firmware does not work, then:

We format a USB flash drive in FAT or FAT32 with any utility, for example from HP for flash drives, but not in Windows, such as click right click mouse on a USB stick and the format may not help.

We drop the file onto the USB flash drive.

We insert it into the included receiver, wait a minute or less and turn it off with the button on the device, you can immediately turn it on with the same button.

After 10 seconds, maximum 30, an inscription will appear that the firmware is in progress.

If the inscription does not appear and the standby indicator starts blinking, then the firmware has not started.
