    Hi Guys.

    I am desperately in need of some guidance! I recently flashed my Replay Lite, and it worked perfectly. I am using the proper software and she always autorolls etc. No issues for a couple of weeks.

    A friend of mine with a Eurovox Max asked me to flash his for him, and we did so using my PC and cable, with the Eurovox software. His worked also, however (and this is where it gets crazy) we did an autoscan of his box, hooked up to my cable and my TV. I unplugged my scart hooked it to his box, pluged in the signal cable to his box, and powered his one up. During this my box was sitting under his and plugged in only to the power. At first his remote control would not work, then after a while it did. We did a scan and all the stations came in. Unplugged his box and hooked up mine again. My replay lite came on straight away but was stuck on MTV (last channel I was watching), and the remote wouldnt change it or even power it off, in fact there seems to be no connection between my remote and my box.

    I have since done a factory reset through the STB link, then reflashed my box with the correct software..Nothing. I hooked it up and it picking up a signal but no its stuck on RTE1!! My remote control will not work at all!

    We then connected his box to the TV and his remote has stopped working too!

    Is it possible that my box or remote somehow altered frequency or that I need to reset the remote? If so how? Up until an hour ago everything was working 100%.

    Any help or suggestions welcome. Thanks

    If you have a mobile phone with a camera, switch it to camera mode. Point the remote at the camera lens and press some buttons , and you should see the infra-red LED flashing on the screen. If you don't see it flashing, then yes, the remote is dead.If you do see it flashing, then it's not the remote.

    Hi Celtic71,

    Thanks. I tried that and the remote doesnt show on my camera. Just to be sure I tried some other remotes and they did, so my remote is knackered? Can it be fixed/reset? Or can you buy replacements?

    What would have caused it to go? Having the Eurovox in its presence?

    Thanks again.
