    Thanks scouser. And here I was thinking I was being clever...oh well!

    On a different note, I have a starview 2 box running firmware version 4.51 - since moving to this firmware (from v3), I've noticed that the box reboots itself every other day. Is this normal behaviour?

    A friend of mine just a Starview Box and it won't pick up any channels. He can see the box menu on the Tv and when he goes to install (NTL) it shows TP 1-24 but fails on every one. The fact he is seeing the menu looks like the box is connected to TV ok, and he has the coax NTL cable in the cable input in the back of the box. This same cable in the TV will give basic NTL on TV. All appears to be set up properly yet it finds no channels. He has tried factory reset but no joy.
    Any help???

    Not really, although you could try a factory reset and reflash with a higher firmware revision, i.e. 4.54 and see if this cures it.

    Firmware is fine, when he done a factory reset did he turn off the box for a minute and then go to installation.

    Persistance will pay of as it will eventually find all tps. He could try a reflash if it continues to fail, or I have found a manual scan at 290.000 will pick up all tps.

    Check all the cables as you would get a message on the screen rather than a blank screen

    Evening all.

    I woke up this morning to find a load of premium channels missing. No problem I thought...ran a scan all channels reappeared. Perfect! Or so I thought...

    Just this evening, that S4y Sp0rts 1 is displayed with the S4y Bet screen (as if you were to press red button while watching S4y Sp0rts and selecting Bet).

    I've tried everything I can think of but can't get the normal sports screen S4y Sp0rts 2,3 and xtra and perfectly fine. Does anybody have any ideas???

    St4rview 2 v7
    Firmware 4.54
    Provider is t3l3west (v1rg1n)

    Please help - I can't watch Bolton v Liverpool on Saturday like this...

    Balcee i have already answered your question on the other thread

    please try and keep your post to 1 thread it is easier for ues to answer you

    juat leave your box alone they seem to be like that at the moment in the Uk and it might sort itself out ok

    Hi Fergus. Sorry about that, I read the post at the bottom and missed yours. I apologise for duplicating.

    Thanks for the answer, hope it sorts itself out soon :)

    Hi,

    I came across this site a few months ago and have been using it since to update my codes, so many thanks to all you guys who have continued to keep technophobes like me watching TV (",)

    This is my first post so apologies if I'm in the wrong thread, but I've noticed channels being advertised such as UK History, UK Food, Crime & Investigation Network etc but I don't have any of these channels. I'm on N*L in Dublin and was wondering if anyone knows how I can pick up these new channels??

    vm are doing a massive change in channels nationwide as a result we will notice odd things happening to our boxes...nothing to worry about it will settle again in the next few weeks.
