Problems since updating software

[HiTeck]

Ok mate, it should work when your done, its a common fault but as said you will need to tune your TV in when the RF cable is connected (dont forget).

Ok I am scannin now with the RF cable connected, but its not even vaguely scanning the channel in.

Is it worth doing the same with a box that works and then reconnecting to the bricked one?

[geordiepaul2005]

Tried the same method with the box that works but still unable to tune it in.

Looked on ebay for solderless jtag kit.
I have emailed two sellers to see if it will solve the problem, one says probably and the other says no and I will have to send the unit to him.

Who is more likely to be telling the truth?

If your seller will exchange the box for you mate, I think this is the best course of action before you jtag.

HiTeck,

Can I just double check that the RF goes from the aerial socket on the tv and into the RF in socket on the eurovox (having disconnected the live cable feed)

Just in case I have messed up.

Ah its not my original seller mate and he means send it to him so he can fix it - presumably at an additional cost.

Hi mate,

Did I do your fix right by connecting the rf cable from the aerial socket to the rf in on the eurovox?

Thanks for all the help

Just got your PM geordiepaul,

You connect the RF cable to the TV/VCR socket at the back of your box not the RF socket.

The RF socket is for your cable feed.

Change them around and then tune your TV in.

[geordiepaul2005]

Ahhh right, thanks for that - presuming it wont make a difference if the cable feed is in or not

Not to getting your menu's up but you will have to obviously plug that in to get your channels scanned in. Got to go for a while best of look.

[geordiepaul2005]

Thanks again.
I have 2 bands to choose from on the tv - c and s.
I have tried a full scan on s with no joy and I am waiting for c to complete now.

[geordiepaul2005]

It almost tuned in but the picture was extremely blurry. I tried to fine tune back to it and it wont pick up the signal again. Still scanning in hope....

One of my mates had the same trouble - tried installing loads of different firmwares for it but nothing worked. I think a J-Tag is the only option, either that or fork out for a new box I'm afraid.

[geordiepaul2005]

Nearly two hours of scanning....don't think its gonna drop in

You put your TV on the normal channels i.e channel 6 or 0 not AV or s-video and just tune it in.
