    Carry out a factory reset, rescan your network turn EMU on. VM have been rolling out new codes so channels have been dissapering but this should solve it. Heads up new smartcards being rolled out in the coming weeks/months all boxes will be going down no fix now or near future enjoy while it lasts

    Ps Good luck on sunday your goona need it Up the gunners ;-)

    If the box is new then you will need to flash it with the correct Firmware as stated above, but you do need to make sure that you have correctly identified your SV Model, you say it is Starview 4, then the Firmware you need is TheboxSuperUSB_V1.12.BIN and you will find it along with the Logo in Eamo's FTA Library link at the bottom of post. There are help files also in there so download them and read so that you know what and how to do the job okay, but make sure that you definately know the model of your box, and have a read of this thread. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    Right then - Your model of box is Starview 2 The Box, but unfortunately you are in Ireland on Ch**us and that is why I did ask you on the other thread (as below), you will not get any of the premium and in fact very little, this is because of the migration to Nag 3.

    Also have a read of this thread for more information, to be honest you are wasting your time.

    Sorry I had to go away for awhile, at the present time there is no way forward with the cable boxes, no fix likely in the foreseeable future, so I would not purchase any cable box at the moment.
