FAQs

What is DVB-S2?

DVB-S2 (Digital Video Broadcasting — Satellite — 2nd generation) is a digital television broadcasting standard that allows for more efficient transmission of satellite TV signals, enabling higher quality video and more channels.

Can I use this receiver for terrestrial TV signals?

No, this Leyf PVR Satellite Receiver is designed exclusively for receiving satellite television signals (DVB-S/DVB-S2) and is not compatible with terrestrial broadcasting.

How do I update the firmware?

Firmware updates can typically be performed via the USB ports. Download the update file from the manufacturer's support website to a USB drive and follow the on-screen instructions within the receiver's menu.

What types of files can I play from USB?

The receiver supports common media file formats for playback via USB, such as videos (e.g., MP4, AVI) and images (e.g., JPEG). Refer to the product manual for a comprehensive list of supported formats.

Does this receiver record channels?

The 'PVR' in the product name stands for Personal Video Recorder, indicating it has the capability to record satellite channels, typically to an externally connected USB storage device.

How do I add new channels?

You can perform an automatic channel scan via the receiver's menu. This process searches for available channels on the selected satellite(s). The pre-programmed lists provide a good starting point.
