Replay Lite

hey gizz, I dont mean to be too specific but if I press the info button when looking at something the summary info appears at the bottom of the screen ok. Its just that when I try to get the detailed info like what the program is about or the film info who's in it and the summary of what's it about etc ... that bit doesn't work but it used to. Does that make sense?

 

Hi Replaycym, I've also got the exact same problem as you. I have 2 Replay Lite boxes and upgraded the software to 7.52 successfully on both of them. Like you, when I press the EPG button you get the screen appearing which shows you the current program and the next program but when you press the info button nothing happens. With the 7.44 software when you pressed the EPG button and then pressed the Info button you would get a description on screen of what the current program or movie was about. Also...instead of pressing the EPG button, just press he info button twice when you're watching a program. On the right hand side of the screen it will show you the list of programs for the day but on the left there is no information for them. On the 7.44 software you could get information on the left side of the screen for any program so the EPG for 7.52 is NOT working. It seems that the Replay Lite box can't display detailed information for the programs. I imagine it's not too hard to take the code or whatever for this particular feature from the 7.44 software and put it into a new software release with the auto update feature? Is it possible someone could release a fix for this or a new software update - 7.53?

CBX ive got 7.52 and the info works fine on mine m8 maybe there is a problem with your version of 7.52.The first upgrade i did didnt work and i found another copy of 7.52 that is fine hope this helps

 

Hi Darren66,
Is it possible I could get a copy of the 7.52 bin file from you? My e-mail address is cbx2000 'at' hotmail dot com.

Thanks for the help....

I think darren might be right about trying another set of files as I had trouble at first to get 752 to work, so I downloaded another copy and it has worked ok on all the boxes I have done.

I have just done another one 5 mins ago and the info button is working 100%
So I would try another set of files.

Hi Gizz and darren66. Can either of you post a link as to where the 7.52 bin file that worked for you or alternatively I'll PM ya so you could send it back to me. Thanks for your help

 

hi could you also pm me please with the latest fiware when you get it thks

 

Does anyone know what kind of cable i should get to connect my box to my laptop??

My laptop has 15-pin female connection on the back. I tried using a null modem cable with an adaptor at one end to convert to 15-pin but couldnt establish a connection with STBlink.

I want to re-flash my boxes as i got a box from supplier with Ver. 7.52 on it and simply cloned lots of other boxes off it but info button is not working and epg is only working some of the time so i wana rectify the problem.

Anybody point me in the right direction with easy step guide as im kinda new to all this.

Cheers.....

 

Cheers Gman, ill check it out.

 

Could someone please pm me the link to the 752 file that the info button works,I too have upgraded with a version of 752 that the info button dosent work.Thnaks

 

hi can any one tell is there clone versions of these boxes and if so how do you know

 

There are two types of Starview box, the original & the copy.
As far as I know there is only one Replay Lite. When people refer to a clone & a Replay Lite in the same sentence, they are referring to a replay Lite with the latest software being used to copy it to another Replay Lite to bring it up to date. Box wise both Replay Lites are the same.

 

Quick update....
Since my first post this morning I have updated the software on my Replay Lite box with versions 7.44, 7.50 and 2 different versions (or bin files that I was told would work re: INFO problem) of 7.52 but the ONLY version that worked regarding the INFO problem is 7.44. I'm not sure that people understand what the problem is here. It's not that the INFO button doesn't work, it does...the problem is that the Replay Lite box cannot display 'detailed information' about a program or movie. When you press the EPG button, highlight a program and press the INFO button nothing happens. I believe the reason for this is not that the button doesn't work, it's that the Replay Lite box can't read the 'detailed information' for any program.
If this is not the same problem that others are having please let us know and if people that do say they have their Replay Lite box working 100% can verify that they can get detailed information on e.g. a movie (date it was made, plot and cast by using the EPG button then INFO button) please post your results here because after flashing my box 4 times today, the only software that can do this for me is 7.44

(Phew)....that was a tad long....sorry!

as i said previous m8 it works........

 

I can confirm that I get detailed info when epg is pressed and then the info button, it gives me a lot of info

You're in the UK Gizz / Darren aren't you? I'm in Dublin...maybe it's an issue with NTHell over here? I'd find it hard to think it is but I updated with both the 7.52 files you sent me Gizz and still no joy...

 

there is an eire 1 ill sort it out

 

sent it to ya m8 try that

 

Hey darren66,
I've just tried the 7.52 bin file you sent me and it doesn't seem to have made any difference. I wonder if it's only people on the NTHell network in Ireland that are only getting this problem. Is surely thought that the one you sent me would have worked. Thanks anyway...
