    newbie here,

    just subscribed to virgin media, have a clone starview box, and running 2.57e_E. I have installed the box, and scanned on NTL - fails, with no channels found, then tried setting to telewest, and this seems to work with 260 odd channels. Then i enable emu and try to view the channels - only the free (terrestial) channels appear, everything else has a dollar sign next to it. when i try and view i get the bad signal or scrambled channell issue

    any ideas?

    how do i find out which provider is right for me, as far as i known ( in nw london) the supplier is only virgin media.
    help!

    Hi Fergusrb, so i need to enter all the codes, not just the ones for my 'provider' - so all six?

    will try that now.
    thanks for the quick response :)

    Absolute Genius!!! - Thank you soooo much! - typed in all six codes and bingo - we're away! all channels - well i think - need to check, but seeing the first of the scrambled channels at least :)

    thank you thank you thank you :)

    My previous mistake was to only enter one pair - i thought the area was telewest, and was entering the keys for them only - how often do these codes change? will i have to do this frequently?

    thanks once more for your help - much appreciatted :)

    Morning all.

    I have been following this thread for a while and the old one - this one will be getting to 200 pages soon as well at this rate!

    I only got my box 3 weeks ago but have learned how to use it thanks to all the advice on here.

    Fergus

    A couple of questions:

    Have I read it right that you don't even have a St*rview even though you help out all us newbies?

    Do you think more of us should have the link to Drew's site in our signature strip?

    Cheers.
