EX5000 No or Bad Signal

[0161david]

Please Help,
Had a Eurovox 5000 PVR for around 6 weeks now and for the last week have had the Bad or No signal error on all channels. Have reflashed, retuned, manually input keys and also changed the cable with no luck.

I'm new to this so could there be anything i'm doing wrong? Any help or pointers would be gratefully received.

Glad to know i'm not the only one!

I'm using VM in south manchester if this is a location based problem

Try plugging your cable feed straight into your TV you should get the basic 5 channels, if not you are having a problem with your cable into the property

no signal

west yorkshire / leeds bradford appear to be ok lads if your boxes went off over the last few days you will need to keep an eye on here for the next updates for your area the OLD ones wont work dont worry they will be onto it as i type there hot on here hope this helps you guys

or if you dont have any subscription to your property they could have disconected your house from the street box

I'm in Glasgow area and my Sky 1 has gone Sky sports 2 and a lot of the sky channels are unwatchable. Is this happening all over or is it my eurovox max v. all other channels are fine only seems to be affecting sky channels movies and sports

some channels are working the rest are not im down south east - bedfordshire area

the 5 basic channels are not being picked by the box

Are you sure the flash has taken m8, if you can you see power scan the box has taken the flash, if you can see deep scan it has not.

Are you saying this box needs flashed again or will I just have to wait this one out. Would power scan help me here does anyone know

EX5000 Bad or No signal

The feed coming into the house is still active.
No of channels varies with each re-scan and after the latest rescan, the box alternates between a few seconds of picture, then goes blocky, then get the bad or no signal msg (occasionally spot an updating codes msg too).
Spotted a few other threads mentioning the possibility that VM are updating the keys on a daily basis - any of the experts know if this is true?
Could anyone confirm if this is just a matter of waiting for new codes to become available or if i'm doing something drastically wrong?
Thanks,

Sounds like you need HiTech...

I suppose you have read this link below.

you can get the keymaster at the bottom of the screen in the above link m8, for the latest keys.

I've had the same problems guys, but power scanned my box 3 times before it worked seems to be a lot better now but lost sky 1 and sky sports 2

I've been having the same problems for about 2 weeks now and have lost sky sports 1,2,3 and my movie channels are of bad quality. Don't really know what to do bec I've rescanned and re-flashed loads of times without the splitter and no joy at all.....

would road works affect the loss of signal, nearby they are doing road, has anybody else got road works happening nearby

although it is not affecting the cc box
