Starview - getting it work on chorus

hi lads, i am in desperate need of some help here!! i have a starview 1 box, i am trying to get it to work on chorus in the blessington/tallaght area, i am new to all this updating and stuff, can you advise me on the sw that should be on the box? i was told version 255 will work, if so can you advise me on what i would need to do when i connect it? as i said i amnew to this so any idiot proof instructions would be greatly welcomed

thanks lads

 

Have you got true cable or MMDS (Aerial on roof)

If you have MMDS the Starvi*w will NOT work sorry

 

hi,
i have true cable, defo not an aerial on the roof..

thank you

 

Ok this might get you up and running for now , but you have to find out if you have a clone or genuine box

When you plug it in follow these steps

English > Installation
Choose Provider etc
Automatic Scan
Press OK
Channels found
Exit

Menu 1570
Turn EMU key ON

Exit , exit , exit

Also input these codes

KEY 00 = 4B 7C D5 86 E7 01 CC 96

To input keys manually :
press menu
press 1570. (this takes you into secret menu)
Press OK on "nagravision"
Make sure your cable provider is listed at top N*L or T***WEST C&W CHO**S ect
Go down to "Key Number" and check its on 00
Go down again to "Key Data" and input the correct keys
Press OK to store
Go back up "Key Number" and change to 01 using the > button on the remote control
Go back down again to "Key Data" and input the correct keys
Press OK to store
Press "Exit" , Check the bottom option and make sure "Key EMU" is On
Press Ok again
Then "Exit and "Exit" again back to the main tv screen
Then go to a paid channel and should update .

KEY 01 = 8E 8E 46 FD 36 28 A3 F0

clone has 18x7 vents on top and genuine has 25x7 vents

clone lastest firmware is 2.57_fixed and genuine latest is 4.00

All these can be found in the link at the bottom of my post

 

hi,

thank you for that, i have the genuine starview box 1, i will try to flash the sw for the box back to version 255 if i can find it. the codes that you gave me in the isntructions are they for chorus? i will be trying it on monday so will post how i got on, i have to get a usb serial 9pin adaptor to flash the sw, i am hoping maplins will have it..

thanks for all your help )

 

Yes , they are the codes for Chor*s , if you have a genuine you can install V4

Here are the latest frequencies for Ch**** True Cable: It is area dependent so not 100% these are for Dublin.


You can manual input these freq to get the channels

Menu > Installation > Manual scan

In Down Freq enter these

6875 symbol rate

274.000 371.000
282.000 378.000
290.000 394.000
298.000 410.000
306.000 427.000
314.000 444.000
322.000

Codes using the same symbol rate of 6875.

 

hello im trying to get the starview 1 up and running but nothings happening.i cant find my chorous controller .do i need to use that

 

Milly , what does it say on your TV screen ?

 

it says no signal

 

Firstly no you don't need your C****s remote for the S******w,if all of your channels are saying 'No signal-Scrambled/bad channel' press 'Menu' on the S******w remote and enter 1570 and check at the bottom of the list it brings up that 'Key EMU' is turned on.

 

how do i store programmes on the manual scan

 

Once the channels are found they are saved and can be found at the bottom of your channel list.

 

now im having problems with auto scan it wont do it.this is wrecking my head.ihave a few chanells but the movie chanells wont come in cant find a code for them.do pay per view chanells work with this aswell

 

You can manual input these freq to get the channels

already tried these codes got some in but the rest are stubborn.il get there somehow

 

You also need to input provider id 5E 01 and these keys if you have an SV1.


KEY 00 = 4B 7C D5 86 E7 01 CC 96

KEY 01 = 8E 8E 46 FD 36 28 A3 F0

 

just tried that but still no movie chanells or sports

 

Are you on true cable or MMDS, (Aerial On roof), where are you located and have you turned key emu on, (menu, type 1570 on RC and check). Also press menu and system info and post what it says please.

 

Are you doing the night shift Scouser lol

 

Yep just in for the fight
