The Box (Ireland)

Hi I have opened the rar file and downloaded the bin file but it says its version v4.03 although the the file name is The_Box_4.55 does this make any difference because ive ran it on 'The Box' and ran an automatic scan for the channels and all im getting is scrambled or bad channel!any ideas?

 

the downloader is v4.03, the actual firmware is 4.55, leave it on a scrambled channel like s*y movies etc and it should start to auto update. Make sure emu is turned on.

 

Quick one, Does the inputting of codes still work on the box with soft 454e now.

Have tried this and only getting BBcs Utv but no movies.

TNXX

 

Hi it started to auto update and it went to 160% and then it flashed onto the channel(I have it on the disney channel) and it went back to 0% and it is stuck there!any other suggesions! sorry to be such a pain!

 

You're fine. Look for the channel with the strongest signal try s*y sports 2 etc. You might have to leave it for a good while.

Try menu 1570 emu off exit back to channel, turn box off at back for a minute, turn back on, menu 1570 default ok emu on exit back to scrambled channel.

 

Manual inputting should work yes, but you are better to upgrade your firmware.

 

boxyman - Had same problem as you with the same box, used the same fix as you described worked perfectly however it does take time for channels to update, so don't worry if it takes a while.

 

Evastar when you say "a while" how long is that?

I flashed but box is stuck on "updating 0%".

 

Which box is it? One of the sv2's i did yesterday took over an hour to kick in.

For starviews:
Check for the channel with the strongest signal, wait for the updating message, if it is moving up from 0% at all leave it on that channel for a good ten minutes, if it isn't try menu 1570 emu off exit turn it off at the back for a minute turn it back on leave it on s*y indie or s*y sports 2, which ever scrambled channel has the best signal, menu 1570 default ok emu on exit to channel and leave it to update.

Some of them seem to be a bit lazy, make sure you have no splitters on your signal.

 

Think its a starview 2,says The Box on it,its a fairly old one,i flashed the latest firmware on it and it has been stuck on 0% for the past half hour.I have done the turing off box etc and still nothing.I have the channel set to sky sports 1.

 

You could always give up and just do a manual input on it. Some of them just won't autoroll, i don't know why.

Try changing the channel a couple of times to other premium channels, if you get the update to start going up on any of the channels leave it on that one.

Sorry.

 

The box isnt mine,im not at home at the min,i done a scan and it found the channels,but it just wont update.Having to wait for over an hour for it to update is mad.

 

I know, but there just seems to be a glitch with them, i had to give up on one of them yesterday. Some of the others here have done sv1, 2 and 3's and only had problems with the 2's.

 

Ill just have to persevere,shame to not get them working.Nice one

 

Go To s*y two & it should update for you.

 

i was just about to say that and say it was your idea but now thats proof that it is lol.

 

hi noely, i'm off now for a few hours!

S*y 2 didn't work for me at all yesterday, i know it's your favourite one all right!

See ya later!

See you later Eva, Take Care.
