    You can view all your channels and there is no problem with it at the moment?

    you need the v4 firmware from the eko site you downloaded it last night and put it in the folder with the gtrom loader did you not i have to say this is the last time i am going over this again ok

    1. Plug starview in at the mains;and put on stand by

    2. Plug in null modem cable and join up box with
    PC using COM port on PC (there is only one socket for
    this on the starview you cant go wrong);

    3. Open up GTRom loader
    4. Click on "BIN File" on GTRom and load the
    Auto update BIN File file 4.00ee that you have


    5. Now click download button and you sill se the
    file being downloaded.

    6. Once complete a mssage will apppears saying
    something like "download successful".(you must wait till youir pc says this it about 20 seconds atfer it says 100%))


    7, plug box in and press Menu on
    remote, installation, choose your cable provider,
    then move don to automatic scan and press ok.

    8. Once all channels have been found press exit back to TV screen.

    9. Now press menu, parental control, press ok.

    10 Now press the info button then the numbers 2 0 0 4. Move down to Key Emu and change option
    to on.
    Press ok , then exit back to TV Screen.

    11. Go to scrambled channel and wait for it to unscramble the channels

    12 then watch tv.
