- (not official!) - This software is developed on the basis of the official 3.4.369 (the one that flows from the satellite 07.10.13g.) The main difference of this firmware is not shown advertising banners when switching channels. It works stably.

Features of this firmware:

    2 - from the main menu, remotely the submenu search for tricolor-tv channels (but it is still available in the menu >> settings >> automatic search >> search type >> tricolor tv) or initial installation(factory reset)

    3 - when entering the main menu or the game menu, the picture does not disappear!

    4 - removed from the side in the main nenya (in my opinion it was not harmonious :))

    5 - organized exit from the list of channels by double click buttons ok (exactly the same as it is organized in 99% of all tuners)

    6 - when the game button was pressed, a swastika flaunted, the search for tricolor channels is now like a game swastika :)

    7 - the algorithm of the EPG menu has been changed - now it is much more convenient (everything can be done with just one OK button)

    8 - in the Tetris menu, the ok and up buttons are swapped

    9 - possible, but not guaranteed !!! The reason for freezing of receivers with 11 series modules has been eliminated.

    10 - the firmware already contains the current channels for 10/05/2013, all the garbage has been removed !!!

Past releases

The procedure is quite simple and does not require special skills from subscribers, you just need to follow the instructions for replacing the software from the info channel. The update process takes some time and you need to be patient and wait for the end. But in spite of all the warnings, some users do not wait for the software update process to finish and, as a result, the receiver stops working.

Practice shows that in very rare cases, even after waiting for the software update to finish, the receiver may not turn on after a reboot. There is only one diagnosis - a failure to update the software.

But don't despair. You can fix this yourself and at home if you have a computer or another similar working receiver at hand. How to do this is described below. Helps in 99% of cases unsuccessful update Satellite software.

14. The firmware process is complete. The remote control to the question “Data transfer is complete. Repeat?" choose "NO". Turn off the receivers and disconnect the null modem cable.

For testing, we get devices that can be conditionally divided into two classes: "branded" (developments of well-known large manufacturers) and "packet" (oriented to receive a package of programs from a particular broadcast provider). Television presented for testing satellite receiver DRS-5001 - new terminal in the "package" line of devices designed primarily for receiving programs of the digital package "Tricolor TV". The manufacturer of this product - Downridge Select Limited (Hong Kong, China) - took as the basis for the development technical solutions implemented in the DRE-5000 receiver, already known on Russian market... The electrical circuit of the prototype has undergone changes that affected:
high-frequency receiving part (tuner unit);
embedded system decoder conditional access DRE Crypt.
The DRS-5001 receiver supports an extended set custom functions, available to the subscriber package "Tricolor TV". Thanks to the support of devices compatible with the Common Interface, the device can be used to receive other open and encoded broadcasts in the MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 format.

Construction and circuitry
The design and proportions of the DRS-5001 are exactly the same as the familiar features of its predecessor. It is easy to guess that the device belongs to the class of budget models.
The receiver has a compact body silver color... The number of elements located on the front panel is minimal:
mode switching button - working / duty;
Channel switching buttons;
TV / R switch button.
A four-digit yellow-orange segment display is used for indication. In operating mode, the display shows the number of the channel being viewed, in standby mode - current time... Additional icon segments available on the display indicate the presence of a signal on the selected channel, transition to receiving a radio channel, or the terminal being in standby mode. The CI slot is located behind the hinged front cover.
A set of interface connectors allows you to connect the required external equipment... The rear panel of the receiver contains:
two F-type LNB IN jacks and a loop output LNB OUT;
two EuroScart connectors (TV and AUX);
audio outputs R / L and VIDEO (RCA-type);
optical output digital audio S / PDIF;
an input for connecting a terrestrial TV antenna RF IN and an output of a UHF modulator for connecting a TV set at RF OUT frequency;
RS-232 data transmission port connector;
power switch.
The circuit diagram of the DRS-5001 receiver is located on several boards:
power unit;
motherboard. Circuitry motherboard, basically the same as that of the DRE-5000 receiver ( CPU STI 5518, configuration and size of memory chips). The device presented for testing is equipped with an EARDA EDS-1547FF1B + tuner unit. The STV0288 microcircuit is used as a QPSK demodulator. This chip has a lower power consumption compared to the previously used STV0299 demodulator, a larger range of the received signal flow rate;
DRE Crypt hardware decoder. Judging by outward appearance(pictured), the hardware decoder of the tested receiver has a different electrical circuit and a set of components in comparison with the same unit used in the DRE-4000 / DRE-5000 receivers;
front panel indication and commutation board.
Due to the horizontal arrangement of the RF modulator tuner unit and the decoder board, the DRS-5001 receiver is housed in a relatively low case.
The control circuit of the SCART connectors of the device under test is designed for the possibility of transit switching electrical signals supplied to the AUX interface. The receiver supports transmission of input and output signals for all video formats: composite, component, matrix (RGB) through this connector. Various AV equipment (VCR, DVD player, game console).
The DRS-5001 receiver is equipped with a 37-button remote control of the same design as that of the DRE-5000 receiver. The operation of remote control commands that call special service subscribers of the Tricolor TV package (TV Chat and TV Mail). These services are called using the "*" and "#" buttons, respectively.
Specifications the tested apparatus are shown in Table 1.

System settings and channel search
The OSD-setting interface of the DRS-5001 is practically the same as that of the DRE-5000. The initial setup procedure is simplified through the use of the Wizard-installation. The values system parameters of this mode, set by default, allow you to set up the DRS-5001 receiver as quickly as possible to receive the channels of the Tricolor TV package ( satellite Eutelsat W4, 36 ° E).
Menu system settings allows you to determine:
date and time. The clock can be synchronized automatically (via satellite) or manual mode... By default, the shift is +3 hours;
menu language. Supports OSD display in four European languages: Russian, English, German and French;
main and additional language and audio (choice from 62 languages);
video output mode. The TV SCART connector of the receiver can output the video signal in composite, component (YUV), S-Video and RGB formats. Supported mode automatic switching between 4: 3 and 16: 9 display formats. This function was tested while watching the programs of the Kinopokaz channel of the Tricolor TV package (some films on this channel are broadcasted in wide format);
audio output format. Possibility of manual activation of S / PDIF-output is provided;
display settings (display format, OSD transparency level, display time and use of the screen storage function);
conditions of "parental" access. You can select the level age limit viewing mode (from 4 to 18 years old in increments of 1) or full access;
event timers. Up to 32 non-overlapping timers can be set. The event reservation service (timer activation) via EPG is supported.
ON new platform contains a number of additions to basic functions DRE-5000 receiver interface: 1. The main menu now has the item "Search for Tricolor TV channels". When this function is called, the current list of channels broadcast in the Tricolor TV package is updated. The use of this service does not violate the previously selected configuration of user settings and channel lists of other packages stored in the receiver's memory. 2. Added functions of user services for Tricolor TV subscribers: TV Chat and TV mail. TV Chat has been tested on Veseloye TV and Telepuchestveniye channels.
3. Added "DRE Info" item to the Conditional Access menu. With the help of this menu, the Tricolor TV subscriber can get information about the classes and the duration of the subscription.
The DRS-5001 receiver allows you to use a variety of reception antenna systems:
fixed (one or more, switched by a DiSEqC switch). The use of DiSEqC 1.0 and DiSEqC 1.1 switching protocols is supported;
motorized, controlled by DiSEqC 1.2 or USALS-positioner. The receiver allows automatic signal search in the positioner setting mode. The antenna is moved until it is detected and captured digital signal With given parameters... Testing has shown that the new software has eliminated the problems associated with the loss of settings for the satellites of the motorized system.
In the mode quick setup the default is simple fixed receiving system: converter with a local oscillator frequency 10750 MHz, receiving signals in circular polarization.
Support different modes channel search combined with the ability to use various configurations antenna systems allow to consider the DRS-5001 receiver as a universal device. The pre-installed list of satellites contains an updated and current list of transponders and broadcast parameters for various packages at the time of testing. Supports four types automatic search(fast, complete, network, "Tricolor TV") greatly simplifies the setup of the receiver. Testing has shown that the DRS-5001 receiver can be used to receive both low-speed and high-speed digital packages with a range of flow rates from 2.2 to 45 Msimv / s. It turned out, however, that the DRS-5001 receiver sometimes does a poor job of detecting signals of some broadcast packets. This problem was found in the manual and automatic search modes for packets broadcast from various satellites. In some cases, the time required to "lock" the receiver to such a broadcast exceeds a few minutes. If, nevertheless, in the end, the receiver detected a signal included in such a package, then when viewing channels the problem manifested itself again: after switching or when switching to an operating mode, the signal was absent. Any connection of this effect with the parameters of the received signal (frequency, value symbol rate and FEC) could not be found. We assume that the problem arises due to insufficient interaction between the receiver's motherboard and the new tuner unit.

Conditional access
The DRS-5001 terminal has two built-in conditional access systems:
hardware and software COURT DRE Crypt;
software descrambler BISS.
Conditional system operation DRE access Crypt of the DRS-5001 receiver has been tested in the Tricolor TV package channel viewing mode. To connect to the view, the following were performed:
registration of equipment (DRE ID of the terminal);
activation of the subscription card pay channels("Start" card).
There were no problems with registration and activation of the subscription. The receiver was tuned to receive Tricolor TV channels and switched to the pay-package channels viewing mode. However, after receiving confirmation of the subscription card activation for a long time (about 4 hours), the channel was not decoded, and the message “Scrambled channel (DRE)” was displayed on the screen. Viewing became possible only after switching to another channel. A similar problem was observed sometimes even after the receiver was switched from standby mode to working mode after a short (1-2 hours) shutdown interval. Another drawback that we noticed during testing is a significant switching time when watching between coded channels of the Tricolor TV package, sometimes reaching 5-7 seconds. Decoding was stable while watching the selected channel.
The BISS software descrambler supports the Mode 1 conditional access mode. Seven keys can be stored in the receiver's memory.
To test the operation of the built-in BISS descrambler, the ability to view the Stolichnoye TV channel (Express-AM22, 53 ° east) was tested. To test the CI interface, various types of CAM modules and original access cards were used paid packages and the channels NTV-Plus (Eutelsat W4, 36 ° East) and Orion Express (Express-AM2, 80 ° East). Channel "opening" time when switching between coded and open channels small (about 1-2 s).
The advantages of the device presented for testing include the possibility of its joint use with transcoding MPEG-4 / MPEG-2 CI-modules Viaccess Neotion Pocket NP4 and MPEG4 / MPEG2 DRE Crypt CAM. With the help of these modules it was possible to decode MPEG-4 broadcasts of the RSCC packet from the Express-AM1 satellite, 40 ° east longitude. Switching time between MPEG-4 channels was about 3 seconds.
The results of checking the compatibility of the DRS-5001 receiver with different types The CAMs are summarized in Table 2. During this testing, no significant problems were identified.

Service functions
The DRS-5001 receiver supports a wide range of information service functions:
multi-day extended EPG. The EPG information of the Tricolor TV, NTV-Plus and Orion-Express packages is displayed correctly;
broadcast information (channel name, presence of tele-text services, subtitles, panoramic sound, information about the current program). Improved (compared to DRE-5000), in our opinion, the work of the indicator displaying the level of the received signal, the readings of which have become more reliable;
teletext. OSD and VBI teletext support included. The built-in teletext decoder allows you to display teletext on the screen using, among other things, national alphabets. However, when receiving some channels, this function does not work correctly (teletext service in the RSCC package from the Express-AM1 satellite, 40 ° east);
subtitles. The terminal supports TTX and DVB subtitle processing. The software allows you to select the type of subtitles displayed on the screen (DVB or TTX subtitles). The function works correctly on different channels, broadcasts of which are accompanied by subtitles.
OSD-menu makes it possible to arrange channel lists:
sorting the browse list. The currently displayed channel list can be sorted alphabetically. Possibility is provided fast transition inside an ordered list and switching alphabet layouts (four language options from the same set as the menu languages);
creation of favorite channel lists. In total, the user can create up to 32 favorite lists. Thanks to the use of user-defined selection filters, the process of creating such lists is greatly simplified;
channel list editor (operations for deleting, moving, renaming, blocking). The editable list ("TV" or "Radio") is displayed against the background of the full-screen image of the channel being watched.

Testing of the DRS-5001 receiver showed that, despite the presence of problems, the device provides the ability to view channels of the Tricolor TV package and can be used to receive other paid and open programs.

The editors are grateful to the General Satellite Corporation (Russia) for the DRS-5001 receiver provided for testing. To update software through the satellite, the receiver must be connected to the tuned satellite dish.
