Eurovox flashing step by step.

I was watching the racing channel Friday and the presenter advised viewers to make sure they changed to the new card sent out by sky or they would not be able to get the station from Monday,I reckon this is sky and not nt*'s doing (just a thought)

 

If only but disney,espn,setanta 1 etc are all gone as well.

 

Hi people,
I have just today got my Eurovox EX1000 SL through the post.
I just came on here to find out about flashing the firmware and am reading these latest posts in horror! Am I correct in thinking you are saying that my box is not going to do the job for me I was hoping for sports and movies!!!

 

Afraid so cable_boy unless you're in a C*or*s area. Thats a real kick in the balls that your box only arrived today.

 

Im afraid so mate!!

 

It is if your on ntl cable ireland, if your in the UK it will work fine.

 

OH OK, I am in the UK I thought that everywhere was the same.
Sorry I am a bit new to all of this! Surely if Ireland is now blocked the UK will be any day now?
Thanks for all your replies, busy trying to get my head around everything!

 

We dont know when it will happen here, enjoy it while it lasts, I dont thinks its going to be anytime soon but you never know.

 

Thanks for the reply.
I will get back to reading how to do the firmware! lol
Don't the service activated until the end of next week, so got a bit of time to try and work it out
Thanks again

 

as hiteck replyed enjoy it while it lasts
ps:ya dont have a spare room i could rent of ya, if i went over to the uk, its bad and getting worst without tv over here,lol
i think there is going to be an uprising and riots

 

I don't know where abouts in ireland you are, but if you are anywhere near the south west then I would give up TV to be there instead of the UK!! I love the south west of ireland

 

Hi pinoy,

the file must be opened on to the usb stick, but not in rar form. Use Winrar to extract it the usb stick. Then go to menu, go along the top of screen to USB and load from there. A pain and a rigmarole, but you will get there.

Going to Glasgow today, back tomorrow, good luck. Pm me if you need more detailed info.

 

hi fellas, just wondering if you could offer me a peice of advice.

Just recently got the Eurovox EX1000SL, connected it all up good and proper. Turned it on and the blue light came on fine.

During the scan for channels though it just turns itself off and stays on the red light. Regardless of how many times i turn it off by the mains or press the power button on the remote.

This was 2 days ago, and i tried it again today and had the same problem whilst doing a "Power Scan"

Is there a way to fix it or should i just return it?
And is this is a common problem with the EX1000SL?

cheers

 

did you flash the new firmware on your box for it to work?
also press menu press ok for language settings then press 1968 another thing will appear called emulator make sure its enabled and press the red button to save,
but your box should not be turning off by its self, make sure none of the buttons are stuck!

 

Hi Hiteck
I am new to the forum and have just read your very informative post BUT is all this still relevant ? Will this still work and for how long ? the reason i am asking is because of what is happening in Ireland. Is it still worth purchasing Eurovox or am i better of buying a different type of box ? someone suggested a (Linex Box) ?

 

Where abouts are you?

 

Hi Hiteck

I am in Liverpool, i have 1 box now a eurovox which i have had to change code once and am thinking of a couple more?

Many thanks

 

The Firmware still works for the UK but no one knows for how long, I don't think we will be following Ireland's route any time soon so its up to you if you want to buy another, that's the risk you have to take, with regards to which box, the krytpview is a good box and they did bring out the fix for N2 allot faster than the rest but I don't think that will be the case this time around so take your pick.

 

OK Hiteck
Sorry for being so dumb BUT i take it that if i install the firmware the box will automaticly update itself when codes are changed ? is that correct ? If so when would we have a problem in the future and why ?

Cheers for havin the patience !!
