    My Dad's Starview box has stopped working. He has the updated firmware and his box is exactly the same as mine and mine is working perfectly. I've tried doing a factory reset and re-tuning in the channels. It's not finding any channels at all. It shows the Quality level at approx 86% but is still not finding anything. Any suggestions?

    Is it saying "scrambled or bad ch@nnel" ?
    Try menu > 1570
    Turn "key emu" on & exit back to channels.

    I tried turning EMU to On already but it was already turned on. Would it help to change it to OFF, exit out and then go back in and turn it to ON?

    Also, check your coaxial cable is in "cable input" at the back of the b0x & scart is secure in the TV slot in the b0x.

    Sorry for such a late response but just wanted to say thanks for your help. Turns out the N*L cables coming into the house were so old they needed replacing. All works fine now.
