Mark, is the loopback detect in hijack still present to check for pins 6+7 in the serial connector? And if so, does it set to HOME or AC?

Just finishing off my home dock - built from an AIWA VCR with only minor mods (had to up the regulator from 12 to 15 volts as it got dragged a bit too low, and had to remove all that fiddly mechanical stuff - I'll post photos at some point), and it works fine, but only if I set DC_Servers as I can't get home detection to work.

I seemed to recall he added a Hijack menu option to control home dock detection at some point. Have you looked to see if there's a menu entry for that, and if it's set to the right setting?

It works for me (I put the loopback on pins 6 and 7 in my dock).

When I boot I get this message:

Tuner: loopback=1, ID=-1
Forced AC/Home mode

Cheers guys - I must just be making some silly error somewhere.

Off to check wiring and config.ini again
