    Have a nokia dbox 2 running sportster 1.7 uk, all has been fine until today when i am not able to view any encrypted channels.
    All channels are still on the box but when a specific channel is selected the details appear at the bottom of the screen but no picture is displayed only a black screen.
    The likes of BBC1 etc can still be viewed.

    Any help would be much appreciated

    On your remote push the blue button
    Sportster menu
    Emu selection
    Restart evocam

    Cheers for the reply
    Tried , but still not working .
    EVOCAMD Alternate is the active EMU and the only other one available is SBMCAMD.
    when i go to the EMU setting menu and select EMU versions i get a message "No EMU's Installed"

    I bought a dbox2 but i dont think the signal strength is high enough to scan for stations, is there anything i can do to fix that. I gave the box to a friend of mine who has the same cable provider as me and hers works and she can get all the stations. Can anyone help?

    ok hope someone over here can help out a fellow member form the starview section looking for some info concerning C***** Network

    I and a friend have been trying to get some boxes to work on the MMDS service we got digivox to work on N** MMDS no problem the problem is with the freq been so close it is harder to get it so what i am looking for is a different symbol rate the they might be using and some frequency s that you guys might have using your boxes symbol rate 6875 is not working but we get an 80% on the scans but no picture or sound any info would be great thanks in advance
