starview the box help

my mate has a starview the box,has a problem getting channels,how can you get whatever channels are available back on a starview the box,all channels seem to be gone,just updating all the time, about six or seven channels only on it, any help appreciated,

 

if you have only the free channels and the box is constantly trying to update but getting nowhere then you have 2 options,you can update the firmware to the latest version(there are 4 or 5 versions of starview,star view original.the box,the box super and the usb version,the firmware is not the same for all)also you have starview clones how to tell a clone is(look on top of the box at the vents,18 vents =clone and 25 vents= original)very important to ensure you have the correct firmware and loader for your box(they are all here in the download section)option 2 is manual input of codes,this is easy but the best thing to do is update the firmware(no need to enter codes then)good luck.

 

ok its a starview the box original for Dublin.any link for the firmware annd how to update it thanks piopat

 

try doing a set default key,menu1570-set default key and exit out,seen a few of them today.

 

thanks again.a friend sorted it,the set default knocked all the channells off in the first place. the channels were all found but there was no picture or sound ?only about ten channells were coming in.thanks poipat and cactikid

 

no probs gunnerpa anytime my friend.

 

sorry if im out of touch here but is the box back?

 

Does anyone have the frequency codes for starview the box ? As im only getting 10 channels at the moment in living in Dublin

 

Try doing a factory reset and switch off at the back and back on then doa scan.

 

Tried this it didn't work, it looks like I need the new frequency codes for the channels im missing

 

Don't think so. I have one in another room and I'm also in dub and no probs other than the normal.

 

Are all the channels working on your box cos I only have 10 channels on mine, if yours works can you tell me wot the frequency code is for Sky Premier???

 

which starview do you have is it the 1 / 2 /3 or the usb 4 one

if its the usb 4 there is a fix for that if ist any of the others there's no fixes for them check out the link below

I'm not to sure so I googled a pic of the box I have and I think its a starview 1

Thanks for all ur help Fergus much appreciated

 

Hi is there a difinate way to find out what type of box that I might have as it doesn't say on the box??

 

hi i have a starview(the box)with the usb port.i carrired out the down load and all the stations scanned ok.but all the pay per view ones dont work(blank screen)but the free ones are working fine.any ideas.also you know when you go in to the main menu where do you put the 1570 in.when i press menu what comes up is installation,channel edit,user setup,system set up and usb ? .the box is not a clone and from dublin.thanks

 

you just press 1570 nothing comes up on the screen,that should take you to the secret menu and then turn keycode on.
