    Whilst flicking channels after a while some of the channels don't display - black screen. Sometimes sports and movies, sometimes others. I've tried leaving it for a minute on Sky Sports 1 but surely the keys don't roll every few hours?
    As soon as I rebbot, they appear again. Any ideas? It is a Sagem box with Sportster pro image.

    change the image - as sometimes using a different image can fix your problem

    Just tried with a different Sportster image and I am getting the same problem. This is what I've tried so far
    Sportster 1.75 - It's Ok if I'm just watching a chnnel for a while, but if I start flicking though, eventually I just get a black screen for most of the channels. If I reboot, the channels display fine
    Sportser 1.7 - Exactly The same
    Sporster 1.08 - Takes HOURS to get partway through the channel scan
    Commando 6 - Will only display the freeview channels. Keys don't seem to update even when I leave it on Sky Sports 1

    I'm geting annoyed!

    I just tried the linksat beta 4.5 - same problem. Its OK if you are watching a channel, but if you start flicking between them quickly, you lose the picture and have to reboot. It's as if it forgets the key to decrypt them.
