Hi I have just bought a used starview pvr on eb*y and have tried setting it up. Downloaded latest firmware, full installation, parental ctrl etc. freeview channels working ok, but cannot unscramble the others. Comes up with message INFO SCRAMBLED OR BAD CHANNEL [T1]. Please help !!!! Raj
Hi Raj888, just answered with this on the other side. Print this out, read it at least A FEW times before continuing. You can forget about EMU codes and 1570's with the SV PVR it AU's (Auto Updates). First, Very Important You may need to load the latest F/W (Firm Ware)v4.506 Oct, you may have the FTA F/W installed, 4.506 is in the 'eko.4shared' link below. To find your present Software version press Menu/System Setup/System Information. If it is not v4.506 goto the link at the end of this post, download and install it before continuing. SECOND Then make sure you are plugged into the correct socket at the back (one of the four together) marked up. NOT the antenna socket. The manual is wrong. THIRD Before doing a scan Goto Menu / Installation and make sure the (Cable Network Option) top item is set to your local provider if not correct it by using the right / Left arrow keys on your remote, then move down to Autoscan and wait till it has finished scanning. Fourth If channels are not clearing after a scan goto Menu / System Setup / (Press OK when the Parental Control line in yellow is highlighted then press i then 2007, this should take you the the Cas System Menu. (You may need try this a few times to get your key press timing correct on the remote control but this will get you into the Cas Syatem Menu) If you can't get onto the Cas System Menu screen then you are doing something wrong so re-read it and keep trying. Fifth When you are on the Cas Menu Screen and with Nagravision 1,11 highlighted in Yellow Press OK, On the Provider ID Line select the same provider as earlier by using the left/right arrow buttons on remote then press the LAST (load default) button on your remote, then the OK button to (Store) wait for it to save then press exit, then make sure Autoupdate option is On (Bottom Item in Cas System Menu.) This is the equiv of the EMU, Exit out, Goto a scrambled channel and wait for update. Goto the TheBox PVR Folder for F/W and Documentation Folder for How too's http://eko.4shared.com/ jbvid
Hi, Thanks for your assistance. This PVR had been bugging me all afternoon and evening cos i have set one up before. Anyway after about 10 factory resets and installations it has finally worked. Have noticed that the picture freezes from time to time as does the remote... Well, can't win them all !!!
@Rajj888 Tha freezing will most likely be a signal strength problem, try without any splitters or connections/joins in the line, ie direct cable supply into PVR shortest route. There is a 'make me dead' button on the PVR remote, which if accidently pressed kills the remote, don't ask me why but: Pressing Aux = Kills the remote Pressing STB = Brings back remote. Try it. jbvid
