    1st off everybody that responds to people looking for help thank you got every bit of information I needed.. Since NTHELL started updating keys differently causing s***view boxes to constantly update the amount of threads requesting information on codes and how to update the boxes has gotted a bit mental my 2 hours looking through threads I finally found correct files...
    I'm wondering can a modorator place a detailed guide with whats needed for an update and the process (I know a guide exists but it can take a bit of hunting)... What I need to know is all the different firmwares whats the best for the current situation we have is "CryptStar-v1.4-Core400.bin" the best file to be using? Also when this file is loaded onto the starview box does it just update the method firmware uses to decode channels and if thats the case updating to a later firmware and then updating with "CryptStar-v1.4-Core400.bin" would that be a better option as newer firmware is more stable.. .Again thanks to everybody that helps out with all the requests

    Cryptstar is a patch and not so much a firmware upgrade and is only for SV1s. BTW SV2s called "The Box" AU with the latest firmware and there are numerous threads here on how to update all boxs. Use the search bar and type update The Box and that will give you all you need.

    No Cryptstar is only for Starview 1s. 4.54 is the latest firmware for SV2s, (The Box), look in Eamos FTA Library at the bottom of my post you will find all you need.
