    If you have the pipe direct to the box then you dont have to worry about splitters ect,

    question I have a PVR starview the version is E_ver4.000,8 jun 2007
    Can someone tell me the fixes that the new firmware address

    I have a prob that the box will intermittantly only record 10 mins of a selected program

    Thanks bulld

    Yes you can download the bin file,
    but it was recomended to me to sort them yourself
    in the menu you will find channel edit ( have a play with it it is easy enough)

    I know you say you have a genuine box, but better check first.

    Please click the SV EV Info link at the end of my post to compare clone V genuine boxes.

    You will need a null modem cable DB9F to DB9F.

    Null modem info

    http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?criteria=L71BT&DOY=2m6

    If your pc does not have a serial port you will need a USB to serial port adapter to use in conjunction with the null modem cable.

    USB Adapter info

    http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?Modu...daptor class=

    These two cable links are only for reference as they can be purchased alot cheaper on fleabay.

    All firmware/loader can be found in the link at the end of my post marked Eamos FTA Library.

    You will need the GTromloader V4, (Starvi*w Software Uploader), found in the Starvi*w software folder of the link.

    You will need version 4.00 firmware for GENUINES found in "Starvi*w" firmware folder.
    OR
    You will need version 2.57_FIXED firmware for CLONES found in "Starvi*w" firmware folder.


    Updating Firmware

    Connect your box and PC with a Null modem cable and switch on the cable box and put it on STANDBY.
    (The Starview does not need to be connected to TV to update it with GTROM)

    Open GTROM Loader software make sure that you set the correct COM PORT
    that matches the one that is being used

    Make sure App file only is selected, then click Bin File & browse to the firmware where you downloaded it to on your PC.

    Run the GTROM loader by pressing Download and you will see the % progress increase
    then Download completed message on your PC.
    Wait until you see the DOWNLOAD COMPLETE pop up on your PC before
    removing the NULL MODEM CABLE. The Starvi*w will then reboot

    Turn off and turn back on , then plug your tv cable and scart back in

    Press Menu then 1570 and turn the EMU key ON
    Exit back to viewing

    If that doesnt work ,

    press Menu then System Information and tell us what the API is please

    Have you input the latest codes as I presume you dont have auto rolling firmware and put your key emu on?
