Starview / The Box

Yes I unzipped it and used the v4 gtrom loader. I'll try turning it off and back on again.

 

did you wait till you got the 100% and then you got the pop up to say it had finished sorry for the questions but trying to rule some things out

 

Main cable - no splitter
Firmware - API = 4.50e_E
It worked perfect until last sunday morning when I woke up and a no signal error message.

 

ok if you are getting a no signal message this is down to the incoming cable have you got the cable in the cable input on the back of the box ??

 

Yep, just done it again there to make sure, when I have the gtrom loaded open, i just have the app file only ticked, should I then do something with the channel data file?

 

yep. Have tried that. Its the same cable that works perfectly on a second NTHell box. So, the cable seems perfect. I thought it might be the connector that connects this cable to the box, so I got a new connector - and this hasnt worked. I'm coming to the conclusion that whatever electronics are inside the box arent picking up the signal. NTHell box and The Box are the same distance from the TV.

 

No leave that alone that is only for the channel dump for the box which i would say you dont have did you do a factory reset before flashing it also turn the box off at the back then back on then flash it in standby mode

also you should see 100% first then you will get another pop up telling you it is complete

 

What area are you in can you tell me is it possible for you to check the other end that goes into the wall for a loose connection

 

North Dublin and have checked the connections. Tried again. Still no programs found. Coming to the conclusion that its kaputt.

 

If it doesn't pick up anything after the rescan and factory reset the tuner is either broke or loose.

 

ok so you have the cable in the cable input right one more thing to try go to menu factory reset 0000 press ok turn the box off at the back when the channels have cleared then turn on again then do an automatic scan and see if that works

 

did he not do that yet i thought he did. do that and see.

 

if the box had signal it would say scrambled or bad channel. as cyborcop said is it in the correct input. there are two places it plugs in its left top from the front.

 

I've tried that and it hasnt worked, im ready to throw this box in the bin! I have to be doing something wrong.

 

what exactly is happening now? what does thebox say?

 

removed

 

Ok. the cables are definitely in the right "holes". The box was working. I will try to reset to the factory settings. This I have done already, but will try again. And then do an automatic scan.

Done this. There is no sign of life from the box. No Progams are found on any automatic scan or on any manual codes that I have. As I said I suspect there is something internal wrong with the box. Because the cable and scart are working fine on the other box that I have. They receive a signal. I replaced the connector and have made sure that everything is tightly in place. The box was working and I'm sure that I have connected up everything correctly as I did when it was working.

Pretty sure my affair with the box is over, unless one of the good people on here have a idea. Thanks for all your help. The frustration is beginning to get the better of me.

 

Ok im downloading it now, when its done do I do the usual, 1570, emu on?

 

yes do your scan first then do the 1570 after that
