    Nonsense. They haven't. Only due to people not reading the exact process can that happen,

    Yes, but you said if a process is followed anyone that get's an invalid box on the screen of a starview 4 usb, can resolve it to get back the channels and I and I guess lots of others would be grateful for you to post the process.

    Right, this has nothing to do with 8882. Boxes got "invalid box" appearing on there screens down here and then when switched off and back on there's absolutely nothing. I've been responding an experience that related to whats been posted. Please reread the tread, you had the hopes up.

    Its more than just a delete, for all goes blank once its switched off and back on again. A few boxes down south ire way have reported the same problem. Maybe paranoid, for it seems like they can see (not the address) the box

    It may be to do with the recent firmware update. Has anyone experienced this on an earlier firmware?
