    Ok have you got digital available in your area ?

    Also had you got this b0x working before you played around with it ?

    It has the proper firmware installed so its nothing to do with that , What does it say on your TV screen and the screen on the front of the b0x ?

    There is no emu key button,to get to the emu you will need to press the 'Menu' button then enter 1570 this will now bring up another menu,look down the bottom of this menu and you will see 'Key EMU' go down to it and press 'OK' to turn it on if it's off.
