    shouldnt really...

    if you press language /english/check your provider at the top/ autoscan/ exit once you should see EMU, turn ON/exit to screen/ put on sky spots it should work...I have to go out shortly...but someone will give you a hand or else I will be back tonight and sort it !!
    try it once more and let me know.....

    When you saud your box went down - what did you mean, no signal? no programmes, what?, is it a problem with the supplier?. If you have done a Factory Reset, then it will automatically take you to the Language - you just accept the Language and setup your box as normal, where are you and what supplier.

    Then it is a problem with your cable feed to the box, check it carefully to make sure it is nice and tight and all is OK it may even have come out, because "no signal" means exactly that.

    Right, if you have re-connected everything now - Press Menu, Down to Factory settings OK (enter 0000) press OK to delete, and then you will be back at the Language OK to accept English and then you will be back to Installation OK (Choose your provider i.e. TW NTL etc.)and then down to Automatic Scan OK again and let it scan, when it has finished scanning, you will get the message "Please Wait for saving". you then exit out to the main Menu, and key in 1570 via the keypad on remote and Cas System Menu will appear, go down to Key Emu and turn to ON > with arrow key, and then exit out to an encrypted channel and you should be sorted. (I presume you have the auto-roll firmware on) If not then I would advise you to check the information first and make a note of it for manual entry later).

    Very good, always check when you get that message and don't rush into things, you can easily get confused, :)

    Hi, Ive updated my starview box, done the whole 1570, emu on...everything..then when I exit back to sky sports, a box comes up saying data is being updated and goes up to 250% (sometimes less) this then flicks back to sky sports but still nothing. This keeps happening over and over again. Am I doing something wrong??

    Just looking for some help! Ive flashed my starview box twice now, it installed perfectly, followed the previous instructions doing 1570, making sure the emu key is on, set default key and exiting back out to sky sports. I seem to be having the same problem as a few others here. It just keeps updating itself to 250% but then nothing. I seem to have all the channels though. Would be gratful for any help anyone can give.
    Thanks

    is it the`starview 1 you have what firmware did you put on it can you tell me also when you press 1570 did you check again that your emu is on also press the default key again and put on sly sports 1 and wait for it to update this could go as high as 300% so just need to be patient and dont change the channel while this is updating

    How can I tell if its starview 1? The firmware ive uses is CryptStar-v1.4-GenuineOnly.zip, is that the right one? I dont have a clone box, pretty sure its genuine.
    Everytime i press 1570, i check that emu is on and it is. Will try it again now.

    did you unzip it before you put it on also did you use the V4.00 gtrom loader to put it on

    also try turning the box off at the back and then back on again that might do it also

    Yeah, initially, I was getting the No Signal message. I have got a new connector and still when I try the automatic scan or manual scan the box is not picking up any channels. Beginning to lose patience I'm afraid. Does anyone have any ideas. I hoped it was as simple as the connectors not being tight enough but that isnt the case. I have tried it with a NTL box and it is picking up channels perfectly. Any bright ideas left before it goes into the bin!!!

    Thanks for all your help in advance.

    Are you using a splitter on your cable and are you scanning from the main feed in the room

    also what firmware do you have on your box menu system information API version

    did this box work before and if so how did it just stop or what ??
