    I think the reboot issue on the box super is signal related as my box was grand for hours and then i moved it a bit then it rebooted. i messed with the cable wire and it rebooted 3 more times in the space of a minute and now that the wire is like that the signal glitches and the remote stops responding and one in three times it reboots. I have to fix the wire now but it might help programmers find the problem.

    I fixed it. It's not old it was loose. but 4 reboots in one minute then I fixed the wire and it rebooted 2 hours later again. it's so annoying.

    It also could be an emulator problem as it never happened on an unencrypted channel before.

    He means size 12 shoe size to give it a boot. With all your posts on the re boot problem, why have you not sent it back for a replacement?

    Less heartache and your mind would be put at rest regards firmware/hardware issues if the replacement box has the same issues well then you can investigate.

    Emulation has nothing to do with re-booting. You never said where you got the box if you do maybe we can see what we can do?

    think it needs to go back, seen a few like that, up and down like a porn stars a.ss, its fault alrite, i would ask your relative where they got it as it will be covered under warranty, if they bought from a good seller there shouldnt be an issue.

    The super does re-boot, but not like what your saying,

    Thanks for your help cactikid, MICKAH and sc0user. I'm flinging it back where it came from, you can't even watch it. It's gone really bad since yesterday and I don't want to end up smashing it and making it worth nothing lol.
