    What firmware are you using and are you in UK or Ireland 255/257/258/259 are all good the only thing you will have to do if the codes go again is to re enter them manually and once you have done it once it come second nature it will just be the wait till the codes are released

    Ireland best use 257 more stable

    Thanks Fergus
    I'm using 2.59 in the UK, i'm fairly new to Starview so are you saying aslong as i leave the firmware and update the codes manually my box will last forever as such?

    Also how often do you have to change the codes and how long do they take to be released?

    How long it lasts is the old saying how long is a piece of string but if you leave it alone and enter the codes manually you should have no problems

    You have plenty of time to enter they don't expire as such only when they are changed

    The codes depends a few hours after it has been changed

    Thanks for that, just two more things and il leave you alone

    Just roughly will i be looking at having to change the codes every week, every month, every couple months....?

    And is there a website i can go to to get the codes or is it just a case of searching this forum?

    Thanks again

    When they are changed just come back here again you will have no problem getting them

    As to how long it has not been changed since last August i think but i think it will be changed again within the next month or so but dont worry when they do the codes will be here for everyone to see

    Keep the site in your favorites so you can get back to the site

    Happy Viewing

    My Starview box is 100% genuine:

    The size of it is:
    10.5 inches (27cm) x 7 inches (18cm) x 2.0 inches (5cm)
    (Please note all figures are approx)

    The remote control has only one detent on the back of it and the box itself has the scart leads on the right hand side looking from the front of the box.

    I have flashed it twice with no problems apart fom v3.00 not working so well as it keeps freezing and pixelates the picture, I have now gone back to v2.57 and entered manually the key change codes, now I am just waiting and hoping for the update to solve the freezing problems comes soon.

    I hope this clarifies the situation a bit more.

    Cheers

    the codes didnt need changing since last january because the 257 file was auto updated
    there was 18 key rolls in that time

    anyone with a dbox1 one will tell you this

    key inputs are a regular thing for these lads
    i will be surprised if you get 3 weeks out of it

    Thanks for that information but i was not sure i thought it was because they changed both the 00 and 01 at the same time that was the problem

    good question
    but if it was just as easy to put new keys in why make a new bin file theres more to it than key inputs and i know when the keys roll again soon they all will go of again except for those who have flashed 3.00ee
    and those people will have to find the new keys again , this wont be to much of a problem though

    I would go to v3.00 when it is fixed but for now its the only option, i cant stand watching a screen that freezes etc all the time it was driving me crazy especially when you really want to watch something.
    The only differnce I saw was a slightly faster EPG and the aspect ratio was fixed but that does not warrent me keeping v3.00 with all the problems it was giving me.
    Seems like I am not the only one either so it must be something that probably requires an update to solve.

    300ee seems to work well only in the teeside area

    a fix is coming out acording to the mod. on satdownloads

    Yes that is correct but where is our mod or is it just computer generated when you use your e/mail address
