    After sky changed the movies and renamed them i re booted my starview box and scanned as normal, all was fine but i only get 2 movie channels now, sky dram and sky comedy, all the others are asking for pin, are these problems going to last long or are we losing them . . cheers.

    I came on here to ask the very same question. Lost all but 2 channels this morning. Have we lost sky sports 1 as a matter of interest too.

    I look forward to any replies.

    try a factory reset and autoscan it should pick them uo

    had no probs with mine yesterday just rescanned altough 3 of the new movie channels and sly sports 3 and extra changed transponders today

    also the new movie channels which say they require a pin when you scan the box it should come back with the oringinals with the pin and a hid version of the channel which doesnt require a pin

    i also have been shocked that the epg on my box works with the originals and the hid channels apart from sly movies drama hid

    I'm having the same issues. I've done a rescan and it's picked up the new names, but it's still asking for a PIN number?

    Any ideas?

    what boxes are you guys using?

    the starview requires a factory reset then full auto scan to pick up the new channels and you get the pin request channel and a hid channel

    not sure about dbox but im sure it would be the same sort of thing reset then autoscan

    I'm using a Sagem DBox II with 1XI chip, with the Commando Image.

    I didn't do a Factory reset (is that just holding the "Up" arrow whilst powering on?)

    Would that help, or is a new image the answer?

    you have to add the channels which means typing them in word for word into the right boxes. I did that in the movie bouquet bit.
