    Hi I just bought a Starview thebox super, I have a starview 2 which worked perfectly but done the upgrade. I got the box today and came with it was a note saying download the software from a web site. I downloaded the 7.09e and put it on. Everything seemed ok until I went into the sports section, when I goto Sky sports 2 and Setanta 1 the screen goes black or freezes on the channel before. If I go to all channels I get Sky sports 2 but not Setanta. The Sky sports 2 is on a different frecancy then the 1 on Sports channels.
    Also I tried to overwrite the software with some from another site but when i turn the box back on all the channels are still their so it seems as though it has not overwriten, (should all of the channel need to be re-scanned)

    PLEASE CAN ANY1 HELP WITH MY PROBLEMS ? IT NOT JUST SETANTA AND SKY SPORTS 2 IT'S THE SAME ON A FEW OTHERS.
    PLEASE PLEASE HELP :)

    No if you press menu then factory reset, then connect it to the PC via the null modem cable and download the firmware 8.00e and try that!!
