    yeah I was guessing that. lets hope the Mrs loses all her fav channels first and all that remains are sports channels...ha ha ha..evil laugh!!

    Lets hope something happens and something is fixed!!! otherwise Sky are going to have a big increase in sales come Easter!

    A week before I got my card I was sent an upgrade offer from v*rgin via a mailshot. I just spoke to my oldman in North london who recently received the same mailshot. Might be an indication of a card being sent out soon after? Any more info I'll let post as know users in n/s/e/w london

    should have indcluded that it bought back most channels, just not s*y sports 1 / esp* / 1 of the movie channels / some random other channels / and for missing the entire section of the asian channels (oh well) - everything else works ok.

    Starview 4 usb needs upgraded to firmware v1.12 and will work if you are in an area not affecterd by N3 yet.

    the V1.12 is for gen starview boxs only, if you have a clone box, this will kill your box, so before you start lumping firmware onto a box, check if its a clone, there are pics and info on clones, use the search function at the top of the page and search for SV4 clone info

    as above, check if your box is a clone first, then flash the box if its a gen box, all you can do is rescan the chans at this stage

    use the search function above mate, loads of threads on it and there are guides also. its a simple drag the bin file to your usb stick, make sure the box is off when removing and inserting the drive, once the process begins, dont remove or touch the box until is fully complete

    click my sig link below for the firmware,

    Stratford, east London here. I use the box super USB. Received the new card from V-med a couple of weeks back, now sly sports, excluding slysports news gone, sly movies, esp* and loads of others now gone. I suppose it must be N3... I have the new firmware, and have done rescans and counter scans..nothings changed. Is this the end? or is there any hope in the horizon? please advise..cant live without footie and package with V, is so damn expensive these days, with the big "R" still biting hard
