    hi to all,i`ve got a starview v1 here which came with 2.57 on it have reflashed it with 3.00 and then 4.00 which went on to it fine,now i`ve done my scan found all channels but the picture is constantly breaking up/freezing but all the sound is ok,have tryed 3 different scarts,factory reset box tryed again and still no joy,is it possibly a tuner problem and are they easy enough to fix or is it something else,all the best and thanks,ginga1.

    No i wouldnt think so ,dont think you'd get many channels if it was a tuner problem might be a cable problem how is the picture when you plug the coax back into your tv?

    maybe give it a go,maybe some of the other lads and lassies might have an answer if there around later,but you might as well change the scart and see.

    Try do a factory setting first , then connect it to the PC and flash it with 2.57_FIXED, Connect back up to TV and Select English and follow with Installation and see if that helps

    If that helps and if you are sure its a GENUINE b0x then do it again and update with 4.00
