    got a problem with a new starview box, worked fine for a few weeks. but lost all ppv channels. done all the usual things, factory reset, udated the software as per the forum, but still dont get any ppv channels. just keeps updating. All non ppv channels are fine. any one got any ideas please?

    do you mean all pay channels as in you only have a few. if so go to menu and press 1570 and press set default key and make sure emu's on and then exit and wait for an update to finish and see if it works.

    The box as lost all premium channels, only lets you watch non subscription channels i.e bbc, itv etc

    tried the emu, thats on.

    set default key > press ok
    exit to s*y sports & let it update.

    having same problem

    My mum gets the codes off me when her's goes off. She put the codes in last night. It didn't work but when she went into nagravision code 00 just said FF and key Data just said FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF.

    I have done factory reset and put all codes in correct turned key emu on but still it just says data being updated.

    Has her box fried or could this be fixed. It is quite an old box but I have one of the old ones too but that one is fine????

    Tried the above suggestion re the default key, but not changed the outcome.

    Just keeps updating gets to 100% and starts updating again.

    Any advice is much appreciated.

    Kind Regards

    emu states it on, have tried to turn it off and then back on again and still doesnt work. System shows all non $ channels, but none of the $ channels.

    regards

    alright sc0user and karl. i was kept up half the night due to next door partying and the girls mother was out (and it was TUESDAY night until 5:30 am this morning blaring music) i'm wrecked lol.

    @tedbay it sounds like the firmware needs to be updated.

    lol, nothing better to do. just because her ma went out. if her ma found out she'd probably kill her lol, and my da had to be up at 6:30 this morning for work. i don't think he'll be happy (or awake) lol.
