Starview box

They must have sent you a straight through cable. Glad you are sorted either way

 

scouser...whats the differnece between the old starview box and this new one called 'the box' ???

 

Basically the same. "The Box", has a newer firmware revision, that allows it to autoroll on the true cable C***** network. Also the EPG is supposed to be better, saying that all Starviews have a bad EPG set up in my opinion.

"The Box" is the most recent of the two and therefore it has more future firmware support. It has not been cloned as of yet.

 

my mate has a cloned one 18 fan holes.....is this a problem for him..seems to work the finest

 

No problem as long as he has the 2.57eE fixed firmware on his box to enable autoroll. And also that he never trys to flash genuine fimware to it.

I have to leave for a while hope that is enough info for you.

 

I had that problem before too with the wrong cable supplied with "THE B0X"

 

thanks scouser,
what is autoroll??
will he ever have to load new firmware onto his box...and if so...when do you know that it needs new firmware??

 

Hello again, just a quick query for you guys. Does anyone have the frequency etc for channel 4 as I don't have it in my list of channels and my normal TV signal is no longer available since installing the box. I just thought I could manually search for it instead of messing up my channel order again.
Cheers

 

hi there does anybody know if there is aproblem with n*l ,this mornig i have only rte1 rte2 bbc1 and bbc2 none of the other channels workin,

 

ya i only have a handful of channels working this morning strangely including s#y sports 1 but not the other sport channels

 

Autoroll means when the codes are changed the box will automatically update them. In regards to loading new firmware the 2.57eE fixed is the most up to date firmware, and as it is a clone there are no more future updates.

 

CHANNEL 4 427.000 . This is for the UK.

 

Thanks Scouser-I'll put it on but I've retuned the tv for channels 1-5. I also deleted the wrong BBC1, kept london region!!! Oops! Sorted now, cheers again. No lost channels here(NE) if it helps anyone.

 

I presume that means you have all your channels back

 

lol

 

scouser is your box fully working today i'm in galway and nearly all the channels are gone, i have v4 on it with the auto update

 

thedcman....Have you checked your codes

 

Mines fine but I am not in Galway. I helped someone there yesterday as they were having the same problem. They too had version 4. What channels do you currently have working?

 

s#y sports 1 mutv rte1 and the odd one or two more

 

This is happening in a few areas so I would say that there is work going on. It will usually come back by itself. Can you check what keys are input in your Nagra screen please and tell me what they are?
