    Hi,
    just got my starview box today, had a few problems i.e a loose heatsink was rattling around inside the box but opened it up and fixed it. Took a while to get the channels to find but it's sorted now!
    I was just wondering how you can change the date on the box so that the EPG works?
    i've changed the time via the menu but the time on the box front (LEDs) isn't correct. I can live with that but the date issue for the EPG is bugging me!
    any responses will be greatly appreciated!
    thanks,
    Bwooly318

    try the master reset code 1668,in both options 1 and 2 ,..you are sure you have a software programme on it,..if all faills,reflash with the 257,and then do a factory reset,then a scan,then turn you emu on,..ie options 1 and 2

    Just a quick update to say i've sorted the EPG now, and for anyone else having problems with it, just try going into the settings, then time settings and set the time to AUTO and that should fix it! EPGs a bit slow but can't complain really.

    pc large,
    this happened to a member earlier in the week,...it happens when you
    flash with the new software,..and dont wait for ON to come on before
    unpluging,..reflash your box and wait till on appears,that should do it

    I've got a Eurovox max (2006) that's gone off. Is it the same as a starview box?

    pc, but the box is dead. when switched on theres no leds on the front. theres a lot of confusement about the difference between real & fake boxes. according to the satdownloads site my box is fake but my box supplier guarantees the box is genuine & I trust him. I flashed the box with 260 about a week ago then lastnight the picture froze then it just died. Im guessing the 260 firmware is dodgy but who knows!! ive started a new thread called starview fakes, i hope every one with problems or not will reply, then maybe we can put an end to this confusement!!

    thanks
