Max V newbie

[jimmymack]

Hi All

New to these things so struggling a bit. My sis has bought a Max V which i have concluded is the black 2008 model. since buying the codes have changed i think, given that the Atmega cards went down at the same time. Think it might be las November or December 08.

What exactly do i have to do.
Got the cable and PC but am bewildered by the software.

Do i need new Firmware and if so which one.

Once i have it do i need to d/load anything else for the code changes or is that it?

Thanks in advance.

This is the firmware you need mate, Just open the ufl (f/w) and let it find the box when you have connected it to the pc and hit download. Make sure box is in standby.

Follow these jimmymack, any problems mate come back.

To answer your other question : once you have flashed your box you will not need to enter the codes.

Try now as you have to make at least one post before you can download, hope you stick around after you do.

Euro-Vox Max V Cable Box

Hi, yes am new to this too. am in desperate need of the new firmware for my eurovox max v. Any help will be greatfully received. Thanks.

Hi Jenjoe18 welcome to dk. you will find what your looking for in the download section but you might need to wait till the server updates after your first post upto 15 min

ok,

cable plugged in with box in standby, firmware progrm saw the box as v2.0, flashed it - took about 3 mins.

then i did a deep scan - took about 40 mins.

and now it all appears to work

good stuff!

now there are lots of duplicated channels - is it just a case of going through and deleting them in the manual tuning setup?

Yeah mate just delete the duplicates, although a deep scan may not have been needed but at least you have your channels. Enjoy.
