    Well thats about it then, as a last resort you could try the v4.506 Oct f/w in case the version you have installed is the FTA only version which some suppliers install prior to selling.
    You will find the firmware & how too in the Starview PVR folder in the link below

    i got a recent PVR and I cannot get into the CAS Menu by using i+2007 at the Parental Control menu.

    I have re-installed the Oct firmware mentioned but still no joy - i cannot see any of the $ channels (although they have all been found)

    Hi
    If you can't get into the Cas menu you ain't doing it right. Go back in this thread and find the detailed post I placed there, then keep re-reading it and doing it till you get it. Then say Hooray (its 4 or 5 posts back)
    I'm on holiday: jbvid
    But i'll be back, to see your Hooray

    i did get into the CAS menu - but i had to go into the Parental Control page and press i+2007, not from the previous menu.

    i selected NTHell, loaded the default key and turned on EMU.

    I still cannot get the sports channels which I previously got with my Starview box.

    all I get is the [bad or scrambled channel] [T1] message - contsantly.

    Hi
    Thats what it says in my post.
    ((If channels not clearing goto Menu / System Setup / Press ok when the Parental Control line in yellow is highlighted then press i then 2007, this should take you the the CAS SYSTEM.
    I presume you are getting all the other channels? (you don't say) if so just do a factory reset and a fresh rescan. Save your original channel list first to H/D in the menu system as a backup.

    I downgraded the f/w that came with the box to the 4.506 f/w, as per the previous post.

    I have all the channels but the majority of them are not being descrambled.

    what do you mean by the 'channels are not clearing'?

    Hi
    By 'Channels are not clearing' I mean not unscrambling, not clear, blank screen, no picture visible, can't watch.
    If you can't clear (watch) unscramble channels your still not doing something right keep reading back.
    Have you done as I asked????? by doing a rescan????? You are not answering all I ask to try and help you out.
    You can't have some of the encrypted channels clearing, unscrambling and not others,its impossible, you either have all the scrambled ones unscrambling or non unscrambling, so which is it?????
    Better still give a few names of channels which are and not descrambling.

    i did the following:
    1. a factory reset
    2. set cable n/w
    3. went to parental control and set the EMU on and load the NTHell codes
    4. did an automatic channel scan

    and.....all is now in order!

    thx for all your help and patience.

    Hi
    Yes, you will more than likely need to install new firmware, it can be D/L'd from this site using this link below, goto 'The Box PVR' Folder and the 'How too's' in the Documentation folder.

    Hi
    Are you REALLY sure you are scanning for the correct provider in your area? The is a side button (right/left arrow) on the remote to go through them in the setup menu, ntl, telewest, c&w, etc, etc.

    Hey guys.
    this has probably been asked before but i cant find the answer. I recently installed the new firmware for the box pvr but some of my channels have audio description on them and there is not another version of the channel to watch without it on. Does anybody know how to remove this

    all i do is just hit the audio button and change it there are some channels that are purely for audio description so have a look you may have double channels
