    Hi all,
    Was happy the other day when the advice from fekker got me up an running with the starview.

    Now my son has went and mucked about with it.
    When you exit everything, it leaves you stuck on the language screen.
    Anyone know how to get out of this?.
    I can't even get into parental control?

    The Starview master code is 1668, reset the code to your own choice, factory reset and all should be fine.

    cheers m8,
    When I press 1668, I get

    Test processing E2PROM TEST OKAY
    Front key test.....
    1.Serial Test........ SEND
    2.Tv Format.......... 4:3
    3.Video output....... CVBS

    Then don't know what to do after that.

    Locked out off parental control and Channel edit

    When I go to hidden menu 1570
    I put emu on
    press nagravision, select tw, exit
    go to default key
    saves then exit and I end up back at language.

    Still frozen

    STOP THE PRESS!

    My sons says sorry dad" I spilt a glass of coke and some went on your box"
    I guess that won't help.

    I'll try and open it tomorrow, but looks like it'll be a new box.

    I'd unplug it before it bursts into flames, any spillage that is init noe (especially Cola) will now be shorting out the connections and is a fire hazzard.
