hello again, living in dublin area, and a friend of mine recently bought a "starview the box". performed channel scan as normal, and all channels come up on list but he cannot access any channels, also there is a green icon showing at the end of each channel name. does anybody recognise this problem. All responses welcome!!!
Yes , sure do , Press Menu > System Information and see what the API is I bet it is 2.60 and if thatas the case , they will need to update the firmware in order to view the channels You will need a null modem cable DB9F to DB9F. Null modem info http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?criteria=L71BT&DOY=2m6 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. USB Adapter info http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx...t10&doy=search&MenuName=USB to Serial Adaptor These two cable links are only for reference as they can be purchased alot cheaper on fleabay. All firmware/loader can be found in the link at the end of my post marked Eamos Library. You will need the GTromloader, (Starview Software Uploader), found in the Starview software folder of the link. You will need version 4.50 firmware for THE B0X found in "THE B0X" firmware folder. (thebox_Ireland_H20070705_450eE_api.bin ) And please download the Starview PDF guide,(similar instructions, this will give you step by step instructions on how to do everything.This can be found in the Starview Documentation folder in the link.
