    digivox easy box to work with.
    menu,installation,what provider are u with,virgin,ntl,etc,select correct one,and autoscan when it finishes it has found*** channels,exit back to menu,select system info ok,press 1004 on remote [ secret code ] and key emu to on,exit out of menu.
    one main point coaxial cable into cable input,and scan from main coaxial feed

    thats why box will not work on aerial on roof,it will only run on true digital cable dvb/c.
    you will probably need a dvb/t box to work off ur aerial,as i am not sure what exactly u need.scouser is main man for info
    try another post for( what box for aerial on roof ?] good luck.

    if u have vers 2.6 or 2.8 u are ok,
    0% update can stick at times try pressing say 66 to see if update moves,wait 10 - 15 secs and when it updates picture will come on.
