    Can anyone confirm that the only way to update codes is to do it manually or wait for a software update.

    The reason why I raise this point is because I also own a Eurovox Max and note that the codes are sometimes changed regularly. This means that all we Star View owners are going to find this a real pain.

    The great thing about the Eurovox is that it automatically updates when the codes are changed and never takes longer than 30 to 45 seconds.

    It goes without saying that as more of these boxes become common place, the more often cable providers are going to change the codes.

    Surely, the Star View has the capability to match the Eurovox Max and have some auto code update software installed. If not, its a major flaw in the design of the unit.

    I would be interested to hear what everyone else thinks.

    I agree, but for now we are stuck with the problem. maybe someone will write a new firmware that can solve this.
