The thread I linked to above where another user had made a configuration for a "Dish Hopper" device: viewtopic.php?t=292

Devices from the same manufacturer are often quite similar, so there's a good chance that many of the options are already set correctly in this file so that the modifications you have to do are as few as possible.

I can only see one conf file for download in that thread: download/file.php?id=1108

This isn't the "main" configuration file (UMS.conf), this is a renderer configuration file. You will find those in the "renderers" sub-folder where you have installed UMS. Just put it in that folder, together with all the others that's already there.

I never said that it would work if you used that configuration. I said it would be a good starting point for you making your own. It seems that you just read parts of what I write, so I keep having to repeat myself. Life is too short for that IMO.

Nobody can help you via TeamViewer or any other remote tool, because the problem is that what the renderer configuration states must match the capabilities of your renderer. That's not possible to determine by accessing the computer only, there's two ways to determine the capabilites: 1) Find documentation that specifies, in detail, what it supports (many manufacturers don't bother to make such documentation). 2) Test, see what works and not, and modify the configuration accordingly.

Nobody else can do that for you unless they have the same renderer themselves.
