    Turn off the box before you start the update. Start the update on the pc then switch the box on (1 or 2 seconds) then the update should begin. Try the v1220 first, then if you have the larger version of v1230 I'd advise you put that on. It was the small version of the v1230 (link posted on this thread) that gave me the chdl error as well.

    v1230 was brought out to fix a problem with rebooting some boxes had it leave 1220 on it for now it will be here if its needed.

    The 290kb version of v1230 works for me. Have you tried uploading it again since you got rid of the chdl error?

    The only difference is you may find the box will reboot every hour or so with v1220 when you are watchin something, v1230 fixes that problem.

    Hi
    Would anyone have a copy of this firmware?
    The one in the link at the start seems to be corrupt, cause it just fails.
    Cheers

    greetings one and all! ive been snooping around these forums for a while. decided to finally take the plunge and join the family! ;)

    looking into getting a couple of boxes for friends of mine. theyre not very techy, so one i could set up and would pretty much take care of itself would be sweet.

    digivox xl looks good, and its cheap! im hoping to hear back soon from mjh with the v1230 firmware (cheers bro!). Anyone any advice!?

    Digivox xl works well & is easy to use. Latest version of firmware is v1240 available to download from Eamos... v1230 won't update codes anymore.

    Hi, I installed the UK update and it worked. Didn't realise that I had to find a channel to update from. But turns out you're right. Just flicking and came across the one that did it. Actually figured it out before I read the post but still very helpful to know that's you need to find the correct channel.

    Thanks for the info.

    hi guys,

    trying to fix a digi vox for an aunt of mine, i flashed an incorrect image and now i am getting CHdl and cannot do anything.

    I have read this thread from start to finish and discovered i need to flash v 1220 back onto the box to sort this.

    after that i can scan as is or put on the larger v1230 software on and scan using that.

    My problem is this:-

    I cannot find a link to download v1220 anywhere?
    am i looking right?

    does v1230 work in ireland after the latest attempts to thwart us on the 18-12-08?

    thanks for all your help/suggestions/software lol

    cheers

    Mark ..
