    hi all.

    just got a box from an online store. there is no software on it. which is the latest stable software? i'm in the UK.

    also, is there a step by step guide on how to install the software on to the box?

    this is the latest file for the starview 4 usb this file is recommended for users to put on their boxes to stop them from dying from the power failure prob causing the boot loader not to start up

    LATEST V1.12 FILE

    To load the files just drag them on to a memory stick and then put the memory stick in the USB port
    at the back of the receiver. Then press the menu button on the remote there you will see USB
    at the bottom of the screen. Just highlight USB with the remote then you will see the
    (Box Super USB Bin file) appear on the screen. Highlight the Box Super USB Bin File with the
    remote and press th ok button then you will see the file start loading in to the Box.Do not touch the remote or the box for at least
    30 seconds after the box has rebooted other wise you will end up with a dead box displaying 8882 on the display there is no way to
    recover this box after this happens you will have to send back to the supplier

    After you have uploaded the software from your memory stick,


    • Plug the box in to the TV using the usual scart lead.

    • Turn on the box, press menu and go to installation,

    • Select correct provider i.e. N**, C/W or TW ch***s

    • Then automatic scan

    • Once the channels are found, exit back to the blank screen

    • Press menu (ignore what is on the screen) and press 1 5 7 0, this takes you to a secret menu,

    • Go down to K*y CODE and turn it on.

    • Now exit and wait for it to store all the data.

    • That’s it, have fun

    yes but it has to be for the 8882 error, not a regular jtag you will find them below on the link.
