The Box-T(Need help)

hey guys

Got the box-t today in limerick and have C****s MMDS
I did the auto scan and it picked up 70 channels,all except the radio and R*E1 are scrambled!

Can anybody tell me what im doing wrong,

Cheers guys keep up good work!

 

Not sure if you should be getting more channels for that area. Turn you key emu on, press menu, type 1570 on remote and enable it. If you cannot get into it, you will need to flash the box.

 

Hi sc0user, when you mention 70 channels in that area, is there a list some-where of what area's get what channels ? I know a friend of mine gets around 140ish I think on a starview3 in cork, wondering how many channels would mmds in cork get ?

 

Cable is always around that mark. MMDS differ from Ch**us and N** areas dependent upon location. Should be getting in the high 80s in Cork on MMDS.

 

Approx the same, MMDs doresnt carry the same amount of channels due to its linitations, whereas true cable carrys the full amount of available channels, which is apporx 140. Most people on MMDs get up to about 90 channels, depending on what the provider is sending.

 

Hi Mick how are you doing

 

All good scouser, all is quiet on the western front.

 

And the Eastern, Northern and Southern

 

Turn you key emu on, press menu, type 1570 on remote and enable it
-------------------------------
what is the Key emu? and when do i do this on start up of the box?

 

Whenever you want its the emulator, if you cant see it you need to flash the Box T.

 

do youi know how i flash the box,im a box virgin!

 

To update a Genuine SV , you will need 3 things first .

1. A Null Modem Cable (9 pin female to 9 pin female)
2. GT Rom Loader (Software)
3. Firmware

firmware below can be downloaded below , thanks to Eamo.
Eamo's SV Library
http://eko.4shared.com/

once there go to the starview section and click it, there is a tutorial on how to upload, the firmware is in the box t section

 

Guess you cannot get into the menu, so its not flashed. Easy enough to do.

You will need a null modem cable DB9F to DB9F.

If your pc does not have a serial port you will need a USB to serial port adapter to use in conjunction with the null modem cable.

These two cable links are only for reference as they can be purchased alot cheaper on fleabay.

You will need the Box T firmware and loader you will find them in Eamos FTA Library at the bottom of my post.

 

Or do as Mick say LOL Sorry Mick getting slow in my old age.

 

Thanks Mickah

Iv checked the folder and there is nothing in the starview for the The Box-T,there is a seperate Box t folder with the below in it

The tutorial is in the Starview section on how to upload and what to do and the firmware is in the BOX T section

 

sorry for the double post, but this will help ya

Updating Firmw@re

Connect your box and PC with a Null modem cable and switch on the cable box and put it on STANDBY.
(The Starvi*w does not need to be connected to TV to update it with GTROM)

Open GTROM Loader software make sure that you set the correct COM PORT that matches the one that is being used

Make sure App file only is selected, then click b1n File & browse to the firmw@re where you downloaded it to on your PC.

Run the GTROM loader by pressing Download and you will see the % progress increase then Download completed message on your PC.

Wait until you see the DOWNLOAD COMPLETE p0p up on your PC before removing the NULL MODEM CABLE.

The Starvi*w will then reboot

Disconnect from PC and connect back up to the TV

 

Cheers sc0user/MICKAH

I have that cable so will do it later after work and keep u updated,

Thanks guys!!
