    Hi all,

    All my channels disappeared, went to menu turned emu on, reset the default key thing, went to skysprots. The update window comes up

    It first says "info is updating" it then changes to "Data is updating" and the percentage sits on 0%. I have left it going for nearly hr got fed up and tried it again.

    Im NaughTyLiar customer in ireland.

    Any help would be really helpful ;)

    Thanks,
    tsm

    ok to delete

    TURN THE B0X OFF AT THE BACK FOR A MIN THEN TURN BACK ON

    English > installation, choose provider
    autoscan

    menu > 1570
    Turn emu on
    Exit exit exit

    a lot of different boxes go on lazy update 0% and dont move,change to a different scrambled channel it should update it should move in less that 10 secs,or power off box then on works,it just needs a friendly nudge to wake it up lol.

    this is the way to go if u want to erase all channel data and start from scratch,it is a bit extreme to do if box is not updating lol

    heh the answer i gave myself worked, i knew you shoulda stayed lurking for longer!

    in case this happens to anyone else please do as above, the update only took about 1 min, and the channels all came back
