More Starviewv4 Help!

[ste6106]

Hi guys Ive had a read through the sticky and a few threads, just need clarification,

I have been asked to help with a starview 4 box cos I have been successful at the starview 2. Now the firmware in the sticky, do I just save the file to a usb stick, then plug this stick into the starview box and then using the usb menu download it from the stick, because I cannot convert the bin file on my lappy?

Once this is done will this mean the navigation menu 1570 will work then so the codes will be able to be enterer?

Sorry if im covering old ground guys

[ste6106]

Yes m8 download v1.07f/w for UK and just save to your USB device, then plug into SV and navigate to USB menu and upload.

Once v1.07 f/w is on there you will be able to open up the CAS 1570, you will not need to enter any codes as this f/w will AU, once v1.07 is installed.

Menu 1570
Keycode ON
Exit back to $ channel and let it update

Just make sure SV is switched off when inserting/removing USB device.

Sorry but can someone help me please

Have a starview 4 usb as well loaded logo which took ages but finally went it. Loaded f/w 1.07 rebooted so sure all ok

Installed channels menu 1570 does not work, also now the factory reset option required a password to run and 0000 does not work nor anything else logical.

Sorry for being such a plank.

Afternoon, fellas, just updated the box and everything fine and dandy just wanting to know do I have to leave the usb stick in the back as when I remove it and turn the S/V on all I get is the logo screen?

[ste6106]

[ste6106]

Hey no problemo guys I owe you all at least a crate!

[gazza2008]

thats only 4 me

u got the rest as well

20 crates should cover it lol

[ste6106]

Done! I once won a years supply of beer I may have some spare!!

[clivew]

does anyone know wtf i can do with this box or is it a case of buying a kryptaviw ???

[satsmo]

You can do quite a bit with it, but if you are in Ireland then yes the Kryptview would be the logical choice.

[ste6106]

Im thinking of progressing from a starview 2 to 4, is it reasonable to say I should go for kryptview instead?

[satsmo]

Up to you really as you are in Bolton you are not affected by an encryption change, which Ireland is undergoing.

The SV4 is a PVR, (allows you to record to a HDD or memory stick), where as the Kryptview is a standard DVB C box. However the Kryptview has better support.

[ste6106]

Do we have any idea when the encryption change is due over here?
The box is for my folks they can do all the updating themselves, just thought the sv4 would be a bit easier than code getting when they roll?

[gazza2008]

ste there is no defo when its gonna happen

cud be anytime no 1 knows m8

i have krypt i find it beta if its for ya folks it mite be beta 4 them as ya dont have 2 keep scanning it when u loose channels u just put it in standby....

with the SV u have 2 scan it everytime there is a channel frequency change....

[ste6106]

Cheers gazza, they are capable of scanning and they have time so leave em to it!!!

Hi All,

I flashed my box to 1.07 and did the 1570 and changed key code to on.

I scanned channels under the NTL option and get nothing.

Have I missed something ?

Please advise :)

Hi guys, i have a starview 4, i have all channels, yesterday i seem to have lost uk gold and a couple of others, i still have my sports and movies.

If i did a reset and upload the fw v1.07, would this be any good? or would this affect my box?

any help would be gr8

Cheers

[young]

you dont need to upload the firmware again just factory reset and scan again not forgeting to turn emu on again after

[mtv1]

sorry if i wrong but if you do a factory reset you will have to install latest ware as boxes are sold as freeview

[greenland25]

cheers lads thanks
