    yeh i have the exact same problem, by starview box has worked fine for a couple of months and just today the emu channels stop working, i tried what i normally do by redoing 1570 thing but once it started updating it would get to 10% or 70% or something then stop and go back to the channel name (it would still be a black channel) then shortly after it will update again and the same thing happens again. i only get channels like bbc1 and stuff. is this happening to others aswell. is ther away to fix it or will it happen itself?

    thats the problem with these other boxes, knowledge and information is very limited via the internet - hence stick with dBox or Dreambox as the information and web sites for these boxes are great... and more people have more knowledge

    however to help you guys, pop over to www.hackable.cc - they have a deidcated forum for starview boxes.

    Hi, just joined this forum. I got my new starbox yesterday. I followed all the instructions carefully and got hundreds of channels I don't usually get. I spent ages renumbering them all in order of preference and sat back to enjoy. Today in the middle of watching the Disney channel they all went off and I've been unable get it to unscramble them all again. Same problems as the ones I see here in previous messages. Any ideas what I can do about this? I switched the whole lot off and I'll give it another go later but I'm disappointed. A friend bought his 3-4 months ago and thinks it's great, no probs at all.

    Sorry, you are trying to manually change the keys! I don't have them, I'm still trying to track them down.

    I have heard that the previous keys would work, but I can't confirm it. It would be much easier to buy a null modem cable and flash it.
