    Hi guys and girls, been reading a number of threads on the forum and have managed to update a starview 2 the box for a friend, put version 4.51 on it. I then self updated the keys and everything is working fine. my question is does 4.51 update the keys automatically everytime they change? or is there another piece of software i have t put on the box to do this? I usually only have had dealings with DBOX2's which don't seem to have any problems. I would rather sort this know instead of my friend constantly bringing the box back to me when it needs updating. Thanks in advance as from what i have read you people are very helpful.

    The short answer is YES, it should autoroll the codes.

    You say you put 4.51 on it, so I assume you are in the UK, as there is a different version for Ireland, 4.50.

    Yeah thats correct mate, so issume it should update itself know, if from what i have seen it seems like a good cheaper alternative to the dbox.

    Also does the starview PVR run on the same software and are they any good as i think the functions of the box from what i have read would come in very handy.

    This what i did to get all the Channels, i am Dublin Ireland

    Go to INSTALLATION
    Select correct provider NTL
    Then AUTOMATIC SCAN
    Once the channels are found, exit back to the blank screen
    Press MENU (ignore what is on the screen) and press 1 5 7 0, this takes you to a secret menu,
    Go down to EMU and turn it on.
    Now exit and wait for it to store all the data.
