Starview 3 The Box Super Firmware

they all pick up what your provider broadcasts,if your in Ireland you will pick up about 139 channels.

 

When i said 412 channels it doesnt mean they are dedicated channels like sly sports etc

 

Fairy nuff....I had to re-tune in the box there recently - dunno why this happens, but if it's left off for a period of time, all the channels are "lost" and I have to go 'discover' them all over again...grrrrr - and all the kids channels were gone. Like (can I say it here ?) Dinsey (deliberate typo) and some of the other 24x7 cartoon channels...Has Nthell stopped broadcasting them ?

 

FYI - I bought my box ca. 18 months ago - anybody know if it has since been superseded ?

 

depends on wether you have a starview 3(super) which box have you is it starview,or starview 2(the box)also you need to say where your based.

 

Sorry 'bout that. Dublin, mate...

 

have you lost them channels?tell me what ones your missing.

 

Can't list them off the top of me head. But Disney is gone. Some of the other cartoon channels are gone. Basically all (from what I can see) of the kids channels are gone.

 

try a manual scan on 291mhz for disney or if you like you could try a factory reset and then go through the set up again.

 

If you do a factory reset do you have do flash the box again?

 

no you just need to rescan,starting from scratch.

 

As Karl says do a factory reset,
you should get back the ones you lost!

 

Hmmmmm. Granted, I have the "manual" that came with the Box when I bought it. Now, I've used those steps on a couple of occasions and it has worked. The last time i did a rediscover, the brother gave me a quicker, 'secret' code that bypassed the lengthy steps in the manual....and it was after doing THAT, that I found the channels were missing. I'm wondering if using the secret code doesn't do a full scan ?

 

1570 gets you into the"secret menu" but has nothing to do with scanning,as i previously asked what box have you it will say it on the front of the box.

 

Will have to check that tonight..and get back on here tomorrow. Thanks for your patience so far

 

Morning - it's simply called "The Box", no version or model number or anything on the chassis or in the manual.
The other thing I noticed scanning thru the channels manually is that for some of them, mainly the kids channels, the scan didn't pick up the "name" of the channel e.g. Dinsey, or Dinsey+1....but it has a meaningless string of alphanumerics. Presumably I can rename these ?

 

the channels should all come up with the correct names. Not sure but the the alpanumeric channels are ones that change and on those there is no data of now and next.
