    hi guys im new to this so please bear with me hope someone can help!!??

    bascilly i have a starview 3 scanned all the channels which came up but all were bad/scrambled to access the "hidden menu" i had to update the firmware to 7.05 which worked gr8!!

    re-connected the updated box turned on the EMU and it unlocked s*y sports 2 straight away, BRILLIANT.

    however as soon as i changed channel the box froze so turned it off back on and now all my channels are gone and whenever i auto scan now, keeps saying "failed" and no channels come up?

    any ideas anyone please?????? im soooo stuck

    Have you tried a factory reset and rescan or after that try a reflash.

    flashing is updating firmware. just put the firmware on again or try a factory reset and let me know.

    make sure scart is in bottom slot and cable is in cable input then go into manual scan and network scan enable on 6.887 if that doesnt work scan on 6.952 symbol rate

    make sure you enable network scan on each manual scan. depending on your area symbol rate is 6887 or 6952. put anything as the frequency as network scan just finds all channels on the right symbol rate.

    yep all cables are where they should be because b4 i updated the firmware i autoscanned and it picked up all the channels just wouldnt show them coz couldnt enter hidden menu to turn on EMU so thats how i know the line is fine and the cables are connected correctly, seems since i updated it it wont allow me to pick up any channels on auto scan??

    try an autoscan on each network provider and let it finish. one of them should pick up channels.
