Awesome! I'll be watching closely!
I am hoping to start working on this once again before the end of the year. The text files were easy to generate and contained all the channel mapping information.
DSR410 and other channel maps?

correct Larry
as examples there are some channels that B works but not A...Example is American Life TV on W5. You need a sub to SOMETHING to get it. But Black Belt TV everyone gets
C is also true. There isnt much difference but I think Access, Knowledge and CKUA can be had with option C. On my 410 that hjas SC maps gets just the preview channel (200 and all the other remaps)

At one time I had some software like BDM32 that would access the box with a BDM module. I lost that software and have not been able to find it since. It was on the internet as a free download, but has since disappeared. The wiggler that StarChoice uses, is just a cable that attaches to the serial port. (that was to a StarChoice 421B receiver) At one time StarChoice updated one of my boxes with a BETA software for me to try. They also had routines that loaded and would wipe the PPV. I got a free PPV from them for trying the beta software. I tried changing the channel maps but found the generics on DSR921 ended up having all the settings that I needed at the time for my use. If one is getting a BDM module, be sure to get the correct voltage unit that matches your box. They had 3.3V and 5V BDM modules.
Sounds like my kind of room
It is a 10'x4' room that will contain all my satellite equipment, electronics workbench and rack mounted equipment including TV's and monitors. It will be a hidden room accessed via a hidden door. No women, children or pets allowed.
My dream man cave where I will be spending a great deal of my time.
I remember that there were some channels that I was trying to get with my subed StarChoice box that came up scrambled, but a previously US subed box would receive.
Just so everyone knows BDM stands for Basic Debug Mode programmer or wiggler which is a device used to program the flash inside the receiver.
I will keep the voltage difference in mind when programming the receivers.
Mine had already been master reset when I first got it, so this may be it. When I go home later I'm gonna try entering the frequency manually as Iceberg suggested.
Entered DMX music frequency as per Iceberg's post, and the "Please Wait, We Are Processing Your Request" screen is gone- just a black screen now, but no sounds of any kind. We'll let it sit a while, and see if anything happens.

try the actual channels they show...looks like either 460-479 or 835-850...first is the old "hits" numbers and 2nd is what the actual 4dtv's log it as

Nope, it won't let me select those.... the frequency went back to 1030.000 and I can select channels in the 200 range and like 900 or so but that's it. Back to "Please Wait....bla...bla"
Iceberg, I'm using the oem P* lnb on this dish to try this. Should I use the horz or vert side? Peaked dish on 107.3 using my Pansat 2500.
VOILA! It's alive! I got the PPV thing (still pictures w/no sound), Ice, what was that other channel you got on there?
393 BC Leglislature
here is a list...now this is for a previously subbed SC box...what you can get from that box is different

393 still has the "please wait a moment....." I guess each box acts just a little different. I wonder if this will make W5 work?
Sorry that I'm 2 weeks behind on everything...I just found this thread after trying to catch up here.
Now to my question on this topic. Did you guys notice if the trip counter records hits on the SC sats?
In my experience with the subbed 410s, it doesn't do much until a hit takes place. Once, I did the MR on Anik 107°, I noticed the provider changed to 4128 but that's as far as it went. I'll have to experiment some more now that I know what channels to look for.

On mine, it stayed on zero, but last night, the authorization status changed from "US" to "ZK" and the Starchoice PPV preview channel on 200 was coming in. Now tonight, the authorization status has changed BACK to "US" and the preview channel 200 is back to the "please wait, we are processing your request" screen. Still looking at Anik F1R. Trip counter still at zero. The satellite is listed as "A4" in the signal strength menu. Wierd. I'd just call Skyvision and sub it to something on W5, but from what I've read here, they won't do it unless you bought it from them, which makes absolutely no sense to me!
UPDATE: The authorization status is now "ZK" again and the trip counter is still zero. PPV preview 200 now comes in again but nothing else. I wonder if anything different would happen if I put it back on C-band W5?
