    Received the new Box-t yesterday. I actually ordered the Eurovox becuase i know it works with Chorus. However the box-t arrived and aargh it does not work.
    Just connected and it found 76 channels but only 4 have picture and sound. The rest have epm and text but thats it.

    I have chorus mmds via aerial. Was looking for secret menu etc like the starview boxes but none of the usual acces codes work. MENU 1590 etc.

    So anybody know any quick fixes to get the box-t working woth chorus mmds.

    thanks

    1570 is the CAS menu password - If it doesnt have the correct software you wont get into the menu - press menu and check what version software is on it?

    You should have the Box T V1 api loaded look in menu and system info. You will find the loader and firmware in Eamos FTA Library at the end of my post, (as I put them there yesterday). It is exactly the same as the box in regards to flashing and set up.

    Some of the channels are slightly out of sync. i.e. sound is not totally in sync with lip movement. Is this totally down to the signal I am receiving and is there anything I can do to rectigy it.

    Delete the channels that are not working properly and then do another autoscan, they will then reappear at the end of your channel list.
