Thanks for advice again

 

maybe try a reflash in case there is a problem with file that was downloaded.
sent a pm

 

For the first time ever I got a digi*ox instead of a starv**w and i can not get the box to flash tried everything its an xl using dwnldr 10 and bin 4300 not often i ask for help but hey ho im stuck lol

I must be doing something stupid and i know that but pls tell me what it is (just out of the box if that helps/??)

 

wrong file u are using the older model silver box,u need the XL V1341

 

Cheers for the reply Cat, but tried that also whilst I was waiting on a reply all i get is a constant flash failed, working on alaptop with vista and a usb to serial lead (is null modem) was able to do this no probs until i installed win 7 on desktop!! not a happy man right now lol

 

get xp mate that should work as that is a major pain in the neck

 

Still no joy with this box.What would be the original ver of firmware that was installed when purchased,and where may I locate it?
It finds nothing at all.Would like to try to put it back to original state and try again.Else its the dustbin.
Thanks

 

did you try scanning on all providers

do you have the cable in the cable input on the box

do you have a live feed

are you direct from the wall to the box or using a splitter

 

Yes done everything.Krypt and Euro pv500 both working on the live feed and have been for last 18 months.Just was given this Digivox xl but am unable to find any channels and latest f/w has been installed .Reflashed many times.Think its ready to be dumped or giving away for spare parts.
Many thanks for reply and as in the past Ive gleaned a lot of info and help from reading your relies to others as well
Thanks

 

if someone has just given you that box there could be the reason it could have a faulty tuner on it that is the only other reason i can think of now

 

it is a black box not a silver box.

 

says XL but one never knows lol

 

if its not black then i worry lol

 

Yes def a black box with Digivox xl written on the case and also is in a box also saying digivox XL.
Thanks for all your advice and help.Its available free to anyone for spares
Funny thing on searching it starts on 131.000 mgs on TW (my provider) but on the euroox it finds the first TP on 107.00mgh
Cheers

 

well try manual scan on that freq and see will it work then you will defo know

 

Tnxs for reply but have allready tried that,with no success.Has it was a freebie , curiosity got the better of me.Just wished I knew what the prob was...being a ham operator I like the challenge.
Best wishes and again tnxs for the advice and help that you and many more on Afterdawn have given to each and all.Just wish sometimes people would take the trouble of searching and READING the topics that relate to their problems
