    try pressing menu,factory reset,enter pin number(default pin is 0000)select language, rescan on your provider,set key code to on,now see if the channels have returned.beware that a factory reset will mean you will need to reset your clock,and any parental settings,and your pin(if you had one)will now be 0000. i hope this helps.

    Your region may have began the switch over to Nagra 3 in which case you have no chance other than subscribing :)

    the box your cable company gave you will work if your paying for a sub,any box not supplied by the company will go off after the n3 switch(with the possible exception of a few free to air channels)when the switch happens plug back in your sub box and then atleast you have the basic channels that you pay for.

    hi, my starview4 box has had no problems until recently. I did a factory default. I am having snags with installing the firmware. The bin file loads no problem, but the logo file stops once it has reached 100%, nothing then seems to happen. Any help will be greatfuly recieved.

    Many thanks.

    are you sure you flashed it with the correct firmware for your box ,by the way what box do you have and what firmware did you flash it with . if its the wrong firmware you will need to reflash.

    after its downloaded to 100% press ok and exit back to your channels...check that bbc1 etc free channels are working...if good,then go to sky sports 1 and go into menu,press 1570,enter the cas menu,press default key and then turn on the emu..exit back to sky sports 1 channel and it should update....make sure you have version 1.12 installed

    Sorry to say that there is not any fix for N3, you have recieved a new card so you will gradually have channels dropping off over a period of 2/3 weeks then migration to N3 will be complete and everything gone.
