starview codes

Checked and rechecked,definately not working for mine.I'll try the auto update firmware.

 

Yep that is defo the best option as you will no longer have to be looking for them anymore

 

look on furgus main page its the second set that work

 

hello,
I am a complete idiot at this stuff but hopefully someone out there can help.I have a starview box for a while which worked fine until recently. Now I have hardly any channels. Mostly I just get "bad or scrambled channel" message. I tried going back to instillation and auto scan and tried again but no luck. Help!
Thanks

 

go to menu and system information and post here what API version is on your box ok

 

hi there i have had my starview for about 14 months now, i think its a clone, and thanks to this great forum i have had relatively few problems, in fact i can do most stuff on it.
However today it keeps on cutting out. The picture freezes, and then it reboots itself and then hangs again. If you power off and back on it comes back then does the same again 5 mins later. What is weirder is that i have another Starview upstairs and a eurovox max, as well as my original Telepest box, and they are all working fine.
Any ideas or is it on its way to the free cable box graveyard.

 

Sorry to bother yeh, but when I click link to get NTL codes for 18/3/08 it doesnt take me to em.
And I need them urgently, any suggestions are welcome.
POOLEE.

 

click the link under my post it does work

Please consider updating to the auto roll firmware


Also

You will need a null modem cable DB9F to DB9F.

If your pc does not have a serial port you will need a USB to serial port adapter to use in conjunction with the null modem cable.

These two cable links are only for reference as they can be purchased alot cheaper on fleabay.

All firmware/loader can be found in the link at the end of my post marked Eko

You will need the GTromloader, (Starvi*w Software Uploader), found in the Starvi*w software folder of the link.

You will need version 2.57_FIXED firmware for CLONES found in "Starvi*w" firmware folder.

OR V.400 FOR A GENUINE BOX

18 VENTS CLONE ============ V2.57e_E FIXED

25 VENTS GENUINE BOX ====V4.00e_E

 

Have you updated your box you can check at this link and it will show you the difference

ok so i have checked out the pics and i have the first box (SCART to right looking from the back) but with the latest remote. It also has 18 vents in a row. I have always thought it was a clone so not sure now. I have a new c now so my null modem cable wont fit. I think i have 257 version firmware but cant be sure.

 

ok you need to have V2.57e_E_FIXED ok and that will autoroll the codes it does not matter if the box is genuine or not you just cannot put the V4.00 on a clone ok just remember that

 

ok fergus, ihave found my file and i do have the 257e fixed firmware, as i said though my new pc does not have a serial port for the null modem. Do you think it is just reinstall the firmware ? Also i know that since i installed the 257e fixed last october,i have still had to do a manual code change once.

 

also just noticed that when it boots itself back up, now and again it shows an E on the display and sticks. When you switch it off and back on again it comes back properly.

 

there is 2 V2.57 and old and a new go to the eko site and get the clone safe one and put that on ok


here is a link to a usb adapter for that serial cable

you can find this cheaper else where ok flebay

 

thanks for the info, ill try and go to maplins tomorrow and buy one. i just checked ebay and they all look like convertors rather than the maplins one.

 

nope there are ones on there as well as i have seen them just put in null modem adapters that should bring up a list

 

is this the one i want

 

Yep that will do all right just make sure when you get it that you install the driver first before you plug the adapter in otherwise it will not work ok


Also will you remove that link as well as the mods wont like it ok to edit it go to the little note book on the right of your post and edit it ok

 

thanks all removed. i need to search for one with vista support but i got the idea now. i will post back when i have it to update you. thanks for the help.

 

no bother mate best of luck
