hi guys, can any 1 help me ive had my eurovox for bot 2 years now am having trouble tho around midnight my box starts playing up, a green screen appears then the box switches itself off then comes bk on for around a minute then happen again, this keeps happening till around 9am. any ideas thanks
I remember having the same problem a year back with a eurovox blue, I solved it with a reflash. Which box have you got, can you press menu, config, system info and type back what it says in there, also are you in the UK or Ireland.
thanks for ur time hitech, ok heres what ive got MODEL- DVB-XC BOX S/W VER- 1.0 SSC4 OCT 20 2006 H/W VER- 2.0 OCT 20 2006 BOOTSTRAP- V001 ive never rescaned my box as ive no cables to connect it to my pc, so ive been manually putting the codes in for bot 8 months
LOL yep you certainly need updating, That was the same firmware S/W Ver that was on mine with the same problem but mine used to do it from early morning until dinner time then it was fine the rest of the day. Read this guide >>> http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/674371 Shows you which cables to buy and step by step on how to flash your box.
thanks hiteck ill buy the stuff for doing this, 1 last question how do i no if ive got a blue eurovox or a red, or if its a clone?
Download and look through this > http://www.4shared.com/file/25134698/99eddb44/Genuine_and_clone_eurovox_blue_Box_Pics.html for how to tell if you have a clone. S/W Ver is 2006 so it does look like a Blue EV.
thts me finally scanned my box, hopefully things r sorted, 1 thing ive noticed tho, it dosent seem to show full screen now theres a black line at top and bottom off screen can this be fixed?
Menu and across to Config, then choose TV Settings, and pick the one that suits you and your type of TV - and blue button to save. Try each one, but remember that at the best of times, particularly on Sly Pemiere Film channels, you will have the black band on your TV screen (top and bottom) it is normal.
thanx malci prob fixed, 1 last thing change u change the time its 1hr a head, i found this in the menu and got it to the right time but on the epg its showing the wrong progs on
If the epg is anything like the eurovox you just need to give it time. I had to leave mine for a day until it showed the correct timings after the clocks went back. I dunno about this but do epg's update themselves at the end of each day or something??
In time settings for the UK under Config, set GMT to ON and time zone to GMT+0, blue button for save and exit then power box off at the mains and then back on.
