    Could be either for your area, try 6887 if that doesn't work factory default then try 6952. Some parts of Glasgow are 6887 other 6952.

    Start scan at 100.00 stop at 850.00 step set to 8.

    Kopitekid Thanks.. for the idea.. tried it several times but still no luck.. HOWEVER found a solution..

    In Your PC device manager: hardware profiles, select the COM port with serial/usb adaptor then go into port settings this was set as COM 11 by default, click on advance settings and change this to COM 3 (as was showing on the UFL above), it will say COM3 already in use do you want to continue.. hit YES. Hey presto it will recognise the receiver and you will be able to download ;)

    Hope it helps anyone else with the same problem.
    Thanks Guys !!

    Just tried it again, comes up the same, "Downloading Is Failed",
    don't know where to go from here.

    The worst thing is, I only realised today I was the one who sold it to him!! So I'm going to feel obliged to replace it at my expense.

    Any other ideas? Whats this J Tag I've seen discussed, for fixing damaged boxes, does it apply in this instance??

    I'm using the serial cable not USB for uploading firmware. Just downloaded the box-box transfer instructions, says "press the small reset botton", I've got the lid off the clone, can't see any buttons at all.
    Going out to my mates see if I can borrow his box to do this transfer, if you let me know about button will try it and let you know later tonight if successfull.

    HiTeck once again many thanks for your assistance!!

    Hi again guys

    Last night I posted a question re loss of LFCTV and the Setanta Channels and the general opinion was that it was a transmission problem and some other members also reported the same problem in various parts of the country. Tonight as the channels are still missing I did a Channel Update and these channels have now disappeared. For example what was Setanta 1 is now something nondescript like Channel 4 and the screen is just blank. I suppose this could still be transmission problem but wonder if anyone has any other ideas? Help and advice appreciated as always:-
    cheers - vidou

    I have the same problem. Was briefly advised to rescan for them but don't want to mess it all up... I use a Eurovox Max V and Eurovox EX5000. My mate over the road also says the same has happened there..

    If it helps anyone more, when putting these channels on it says 'Scrambled Channel'.... No TV Listings show etc... Any pros got any ideas?

    Thanks all

    Hey HiTec,
    Got a question for you re the latest filmware. I flashed my Max V 2008 box yesterday with the then latest 30/11/08 version and am up and running. I note today that a newer version is out with 8% fix dated 1/12/08. This happened to me before with the previous versions in April. I assumed I needed to update with the new software when the 8% fix was released but when I tried to scan I could not find many channels. I read up on the threads here and noted someone had the same problem and had re flashed with the previous non 8% fix software. I did the same and was up and running again. Question is why does the 8% version not work on my box and what is the 8% for???? Keep up the great work. Many thanks. Sparsnips.

    @SParsnips>>> If the 30/11/08 works for you then leave it as it is. The 8% signal problem was for people suffering exaclty that.

    @vidou>>> Try a channel update if that doesn't work you will have to do factory default and a powerscan unless you know the freqs the channel has moved to.

    @givemeac>>> No it wont work on a starview box.

    Just updated the firm ware on 3 ex5000s and as yet no probs!
    All the channels stayed where they were and did not have to rescan.
    Noticed a new name in menue "Deepscan" presume this is the new powerscan?
    Also the word doc attached to the new firmware relates to the max guide and not the ex5000 but presume both are similar?
    Thanks for this fix. Now i dont have to punch nmbers every day!

    Sorted HiTeck the channel update does NOT work for this. So for all you people missing Setanta, LFCTV, Rangers TV etc you will have to do a factory default to erase all channels and then a powerscan. They have changed the frequencies for these channels. Now if I could ask a small favour HiTeck - could you gently nudge me in the direction of how to upload a CDF as I uploaded them to the computer after I had done powerscan. Many thanks again - an MBE wouldn't do you justice - Sir HiTeck has a nice noble ring about it....!
