    Too stupid to get channels...

    Hi guys,

    I am totally lost! Each time I try to 'install' the eurovox box EX5000 PVR it asks me to 'delete the channels'. I activated this, which took hours - but at the end there was no possibility to install them again...
    Could somebody help me, being an idiot in such things?
    By the way, the guy who sold the box to me did not provide me with a users manual. Does somebody know where I could get it (perhaps my problem is mentioned in it )?

    Many, many thanks!!!

        However, as I am a quite terrible dummy: What do you mean by 'what area I am in"?

          Has the box been flashed with the latest Firmware.

          Press Menu/Config/System Info and type back what it says in there.

          BTW if you didn't get your Manual its here > Digital Kaos - Downloads - Eurovox EX5000 User Manual

            I am also looking for a manual for a eurovox system. A friend forgot how to use the channel skip function.

                Here they are:
                Model: DVB-XC EX5000 TDA
                S/W Ver: 1.0 ST4 Jul 08 2008
                H/W Ver: 2.0t k5 +D
                Bootstrap: v001
                S/W build: kuro

                Does this tell any thing to you (to me it's equal to Chineese)?

                  You need to put the latest firmware on your box as you have the free to air firmware.

                  read through these threads in the order posted,

                    MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.

                      Thanks!

                      I am afraid I will have to come back to you

                      However, first I am going to buy the necessary cable. And perhaps a miracle happens and I am able to manage your kind tips on mij own...

                      Thanks already in advance!

                          Didn't I already post the link to the ex5000 pvr manual? either way you wont be able to get all your channels UNTIL you update the firmware on your box.

                            Lol, What an amusing thread this has been to read no offence thread starter. Btw Should have been HiTeck who got the thanks there.
                            Sometimes a slow gradual approach does more good than a large gesture.
