Latest firmware release, for the Box Super USB, (SV4).

Can be used in both the UK & Ireland. Please see firmware notes in download link.

Digital Kaos - Downloads - The Box Super USB V1.12 (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/starview/23/box-super-usb-v1-12-835/)

NOTE:

As of the 17/08/'09 looks like N*L areas of Ireland have started to shift over to Nagra 3 and this firmware does not clear N3 channels.

Loving the new EPG. Just what was needed to really bring the USB facility into its own.

Does it need to be updated every few days or once it's done is that it?

Thanks.

Thanks for the info. Downloaded and installed the new firmware every thing appears OK but I still have a couple of questions:

1. There is no Channel Sort function with this version, is that common?

2. I have tried a few time times to scan and locate BBC 3 & BBC 4 - can't seem to find them. Any ideas?

Channel sort is unavailable as it maps the channels. BBC 3 & 4 are not broadcast until 7PM.

I've put the 1.06 firmware on and it works fine for a Beta. I have a Replay box and the Starview's beta is better than the Replays final. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the finished product.

I tried this on my parents SV4, i'm glad i got myself the eurovox pvr,this firmware is still crap, won't buy Starview again, after trying the v1.06 as well i have yet again went back to the v1.05 fixed version, less problematic than the 2 newer versions but still bad compared to the previous firmwares. V1.07 keeps losing channels completely and either sound or picture on a regular basis.:thumpdown:

Given that, while the firware is still far from the finished article, I'm having none of the issues that you're having it may not be the firware that's to blame.

markymark
3rd January, 2009, 07:29 PM
Thanks Satsmo. Most stable yet for recording and channel changing.
Only issues I find are:
1. EPG needing regular manual update to show more than a few hours of guide.
2. Problem with EPG not displaying guide on 11pm-12pm time slot. This one has been in all versons.

A 'would be nice to have' is set reminders with auto channel change without having to record.

Thanks again for the excellent work! Happy new year!

Hi. I've just bought a Starview 4 and its on its way. But i'm totally new to all this stuff so excuse my ignorance with the jargan. I've not a clue about what software to use or even how easy the box is to use. Am I out of my depth?

Not sure about this but aren't the f/w files in winRAR format? Have you got winRAR on your compuer? Might have something to do with the file giving you errors, I have always had winRAR so I'm not sure.

I've got the same problem. About 10 ITV 1 Channels, and quite a few others have duplicated for various regional differences. How can I sort it out?

PKC
20th January, 2009, 02:07 PM
Cheers Satsmo. anyone know if future f/w upgrades will sort out the channel listings? Mine are still a bit off, ie all sports channels are grouped under movies & movie channels are found under kids.

hey guys i need help in a bad way.

been at this all day.

installed all the .bin files

repeatedly

reset factory settings the lot

still finds no channels when i do the search so i downloaded the DUBLIN260109.bin file

which installed all the channels frequencies but it still tells me no signal.

i have detached the chorus box completly and the lead runs directly from the wall to the star box and still nothing.

what can i try?

any and all help is very much so appreciated.

Just bought my first box super, if I flash with this 1.07 will I get more channels?

Lanxman
30th January, 2009, 07:44 PM
yes, you must load the logo file and the f/w on to the box. Then go to menu and key in 1570 and turn on emu/keycode.
Scan again and away you go!

30th January, 2009, 07:45 PM

supergeek
30th January, 2009, 09:00 PM
Whoah! everything worked first time! thanks for all the help, to clarify a few points that I was unsure of though for all us first timers:
1. just go to the usb section of the menu(after copying firmware update) and select the bin file you downloaded
and confirm
2. reset factory settings after restart and a short delay
3. then automatic scan
4. then menu 1570
5. then turn keycode on (dont know what enu is?)
6. when you change channels to new channel it shows "downloading updates" for a worrying long time, but it eventually comes!
Thanks again, will definitely keep coming back

supergeek
30th January, 2009, 09:13 PM
ok,sorry to overdo it on my first day, but Ive just seen the cable loopthrough connector on the back of my new favourite toy. Does this mean I could buy another box and get all the channels on that as well?

probably will affect the strength ..try it and find out ..if it does u cud always buy a booster.............if u have different boxes u can watch different channels,,,,another option rather than buyin boxes would be to buy a av sender....if u look bac k tho the threads u ll see a thread about this and reccommendations wat ones to get......eurovox r a good box,,theres pluses and minus between the two....eurovox takes about 20 mins to scan while sv takes 5 mins ...the epg is better on the vox ... but it s easier to flash the sv 4 tho a usb stick rather usin null modem cables and com ports etc on the vox.......but i suppose if one of the boxes goes down becos they cheange the keys u cud still watch the other.....hope this helps ...bigfella .....m8 why dont u start a thread in the proper s v and eurovox sections and ask ..u ll get a lot more replies :party ::party ::party ::party ::party :

I have the super usb box.

I tried to upload the new firmware, and it crashed on me.

The box came up with 8888, then 8882 on the display, then b-01.

Nothing comes up on the tv screen, however after a couple of minutes i can change the channel on the box using the up and down buttons but nothing happens.

I have no idea what to do, actually feel quite gutted as this was my first taste of the starview.

Is there anything i can do to sort it out

Thats normal behaviour for the sv4 "to come up with 8888, then 8882 and then b-01.
I suggest you check your scart cables, certainly sounds like a scart issue. Hope this helps mate. :)

the fact that the box didnt stay on 8222 means u probably havent bricked it .....it sounds like u havent downloaded the logo file ..as it not comin up.. or is the starview 4 usb logo cumin up??????...will have allok tho threads to see if i can see a link for u
Which logo file for Starview 4 put into search and it will give u a link to where u can download the logo fiule

Hi its been suggested to be that i should install v1.09 as am in Dublin, is that just an Irish version fo 1.07? Has anyone good or bad experience of that release. I am currently running 1.05

Thanks

Welcome to the forum. Yes 1.09 is specifically for the Irish market, you will find it here http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/starview/23/box-super-usb-v1-09-ireland-623/

Once the channels have saved, exit out 3 times.
Press menu and then 1570 on remote you will go into another secret menu.
Highlight the default key and press ok.
Then scroll down to the emu (key code)and turn it on.< > on remote

Try this m8

Lanxman's Tut

Step 1) Plug in the starview 4 and attach the cable feed to the cable input on the back of the box.

Step 2) download the required firmware for the box from digital kaos (downloads section, under starview) currently the required firmware is version 1.07 and place both the firmware and the logo files on to a usb pen drive.
Step 3) Insert the usb pen drive into the usb slot at the back of the box and then flick on the power switch also at the rear of the box, and power the box on with the remote.
Step 4) press menu on the remote and scroll down to the usb option and hit ok, here you will see the files on the pen drive. Highlight the logo file and press ok. Repeat this with the 1.07 f/w file.
Step5) Once the firmware and logo files have loaded onto the box go into menu and key in 1570 with the remote, This will bring you to the secret menu. Highlight keycode and change it to ON.
STEP6) Now you?re all set to scan go back into menu and highlight installation and choose automatic scan hit ok and choose the provider for the area you are in (i.e NTL TW EX C&W and so on) Select the correct one and hit ok. The box should now pick up the desired channels. Should it not pick anything up try the scan on a different provider.

Lanx.

Hello all - I'm another newbie, who has been pointed to this DK forums for answers to all my StarView questions.

My Virgin Cable connection gets installed tomorrow, and I am planning on buying the Starview 4 box, because I've heard it is the easiest (least hassle) to update.

So I have 2 questions:

I know that there is a tutorial that has been uploaded by Laxman, but when I try to download it, I'm told I dont have permission, any idea how I get permission to download the file, and also to download current/future firmware?

Second question - I have read quite a few articles on the web from people who have "bricked" their unit... can anyone recommend a better alternative to the Starview ... something thats easy to update, and has userfriendly functionality.... with PVR capability (I'm not bothered about HD, as Virgin dont have mnay HD channels right now anyway).

Thanks in advance for your help - reading some of the previous posts and the advice people provide, I can see why this site comes highly recommended!

Yeah mate you will have to put it on the box along with the firmware. I uploaded the logo file last night, You'll find it in the downloads section, However I would check first to see if it's not already on there sometimes the boxes come with this already on. :)

Quite a few of my channels have never worked, despite the 1.07 update. I have Virgin Media but some of the channels which come through my normal box don't come through on SV4.

Any help greatly appreciated.

There's me looking for some new firmware and I'll I've done is a fresh automatic scan which has picked up a lot of channels. Some are duplicates, one of which doesn't work but that's fine! Wish I'd known this yesterday but there you go!

Do you have a Starview 4 USB or are you trying to flash it to another model of Starview?

Sorry just seen that you do have a Starview 4. Did you do a factory reset first and then load the bin file. When inserting HDD or Mem stick please make sure box is powered down from main switch on the back of the box. Then power box up and go to HDD via the remote.

satsmo
12th June, 2009, 06:12 PM
They are not firmware related, VM have been moving transponder frequencies around. A factory reset and rescan should get them back. Do not forget to turn your keycode back on.

There has been one bug report on the 1.10 version, looks like the record from EPG function has gone, as was the case in earlier firmware revisions. That is if you are using timed recording from the EPG. The instant record function still works.

If you are in the UK which I know you are I would stick with 1.07 for the time being.

They are not firmware related, VM have been moving transponder frequencies around. A factory reset and rescan should get them back. Do not forget to turn your keycode back on.

There has been one bug report on the 1.10 version, looks like the record from EPG function has gone, as was the case in earlier firmware revisions. That is if you are using timed recording from the EPG. The instant record function still works.

If you are in the UK which I know you are I would stick with 1.07 for the time being.


yeah thanks. I will stick with 1.07 because i really used the timed recordings. i need it to record wwe ppvs in the night.

Your box is bricked m8, prob due to bad flash or removing usb stick whilst flashing the box.

You can try and get your supplier to exchange it for you or you gonna have to use this Tailor-Made Circuits (http://www.tailor-madecircuits.com/shop/product_info.php?products_id=54)

There is no other way to sort this box out, have a read of some of the 8882 threads.

i didn't no u can get these boxes bricked and quite a few times i had to turn the box on when i was flashing the box or took the memory stick out, but nothing has happened to my box.

You been lucky then m8, have a read at some of the 8882 threads and you'll see, the missus bricked mine other night when a was flashing new f/w, a made her fix it herself, well she broke it lol (a did give her advice on what to do)

;) JoK

alright, but yesterday i reflashed my box and it crashed a 34% of downloading, so i had to switch it off from the main.
i guess there are some things u have to do.

oh yeah @ mtv1, i liked the way u said "bang u ~~~~ed" reminds me of a similiar wordhttp://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/images/icons/icon10.gif

lol yes it did get bricked m8, but broken in the sense that it did not work cos it was bricked, bricked=broken if you see where am coming from, it is working now ;)

I too have had to switch off at back in the past and the box has been fine, the missus bricked/broke the box cos she removed the USB while a was flashing box.

Have you checked the epg recording now on V1.10. I too use this feature and am holding off upgrading at the moment so would be interested to know?

The reason I want to upgrade is that I hear the epg is better so hopefully I wont have to keep manually downloading the epg everyday.

Hi, I've updated my box to 1.10 but since I have I cant record a thing - I have read about not being to record via the EPG but you can record by physically pressing the record button but I cant do either.. what should I do?
Also is it possible to record one channel and watch another - I heard a rumor somewhere that you can if you but the correct equipment (i think its a loop cable)
Thanks for any information! :D

but u can not record on ya box and turn ova on it as well

hope this helps m8

thanks for the info regarding the loop cable.
as for the recording, the Hard drive was working before I updated the firmware and have formatted using the format feature on the box but no luck.. should I just reflash the box with 1.07 firmware or will this cause other problems..

UNDERCOVERJAMIL- thanks.


KCNBOB - When you say it worked before the update then surly you took the USB out to update so make sure the USB stick you record on is properly inserted as one of the other members suggested. If that fails you might have to reformat the usb stick and then try it again. HTH

Hi thanks for the advice but
I use the hard drive i always use, this means that I use it to load firmware to update the box but I also use this to record 'stuff' too, the only time its ever unplugged is when I transfer the firmware from my computer to the hard drive, since then it's not been unplugged at all, I have watched a program on the box that I had recorded prior to updating the firmware but I cant record at all, and there's 27.95GB free with the 1.10 firmware on (its only an old iPod hard drive taken out of a broken iPod and put into its own enclosure, making it a external hard drive in its own right), this worked before updating but just nothing will record now, I have even tried formatting with no luck either... :S

I think it might be better to roll back to previous firmware version then, until there is a stable new build which resolves the recording issues which seem to exist.

This is a known problem. I posted a message about this before. I was hoping v1.10 would fix or make the EPG more stable but if you have read this thread you will see that there are issues with not being able to record for some so I'm sticking with 1.07 and downloading the EPG everyday. I figure I can live with this more than not being able to record. For now they are the choices we have.

Just updated from V1.07 to V1.10. I can record manually but not from the EPG. Should have read the thread to the end before diving in. Oh well, back to V1.07 for a while; I'm sure someone is beavering away at V1.11 as we type :D

Latest firmware release 23/06/'09, for the Box Super USB, (SV4).

Contains Nagra 2 fix for Ireland. Can be used in both the UK & Ireland. But I would advise sticking to 1.07 in the UK as there is a glitch in the firmware and will not allow advanced EPG recordings.
