    Hi everyone

    I am new to this forum and would like some help please!

    I have a eurovoxV3 not the red box version it is the one prior to this.

    The box works great I get good reception on all channels with the odd glitch now and again (1-2 seconds).

    The EPG is absolutely CRAP i have heard I can update the firmware to get a fully workable epg but Ihave no idea how to do it other than I need a pc and R232 cable.

    Your help and advise will be much appreciated.

    Thanks Simon

    Null modem info for downloading firmware

    http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?criteria=L71BT&DOY=2m6

    If your pc does not have a serial port you will need a USB to serial port adapter to use in conjunction with the null modem cable.

    USB Adapter info

    http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?Modu...erial Adaptor

    These two cable links are only for reference as they can be purchased alot cheaper on fleabay.
    when you have the cables go to here http://eko.4shared.com/account/file...L_MAX_BLUE_01_10_07.html?sId=idEBT68c4m2zEqpq this is a unified loader so just click download no need to download firmware as well.

    Thank you so much for your help.

    My EPG is now working perfectly.
