Did you get it up and running????

I have followed the install instructions to the letter but can not seem to access the secret menu... I am getting all the channels but can not unlock the emu... any ideas?

[DESSERTDOG]

If as you say you are getting all the channels whats the problem?

[DD33]

no what I meant was all the channels are there but I can not view movies, sports or any of the premium channels...


other words as I stated... I can not get into the secret menu to turn on Key EMU

maybe the firmware hasn't loaded to your box
if you have a look in system information it will give details of firmware (I'm not sure what it should say but someone will be able to tell you if it is the correct one)

What code are you using to try and access the secret menu and are you pressing menu before the code

[DD33]

followed this to the letter

1. Plug in the box and connect the cables
2.Format a usb stick in pc to fat32
3.Copy the firmware onto the stick via the PC.
4 Switch your box off completely and insert the usb in the rear socket.
5.Switch on the box wait for it to boot up.
6.Press menu and scroll to usb press ok
7.The firmware should start to transfer from the usb to the box.
8.Once this has done hit menu and key in 1570 with the remote.
this will bring up the secret menu hi light keycode and change it to on.
9.You should now be set to scan go into menu and select installation,choose automatic scan press ok then choose your provider hit ok again.
You should now get all channels your after.
If by any chance you dont get the channels try a different provider.
