    All virgin in the birmingham area has gone off. you will have to wait for new fix. They are meant to change the codes 2 to 3 times a day to stop people watching it for free.

              so far wide of the mark it's untrue. such a short post but so many incorrect facts.


              Here's whats happening; (going by all the info we have)

              They'll be re-organising all the channels and frequencies, standardising them with the rest of the country ( as whats been happening for the last few weeks all over) getting ready for the swtich to N3. Now they have done this (and the sub'd boxes are running 3.7) the next step will you will start to receive new cards for sub'd boxes. 3 or so weeks after that, the N1 stream will be turned off and you will lose all channels.

              As for a 'fix' for N3 - there isn't one.


              So, until you receive new cards in the post, you can still see the channels, they ARE still there you'll just have to re-scan for them.

                  I'm in Brum, re-scanned a few times and I'm hardly getting any decent channels. All sports barring Eurosport gone, all movies and about 80% of all other channels.

                  Lots of duplicates and various test pages also seems to be killing my starview. BARSTEWARDS!

                    My starview went off early hours this morning, done a factory reset & scan all up and running again, there are a lot of duplicates but all movies & sports are back ............. for now.

                      Does it make a diff if your using 8.02 or 8.04e on Starvue3 Super
                      Also another question as Starview 6 is out My understanding is its made by diff manufacter and uses diff technology does this by pass the new Nag3 technology they are rolling out?

                          Read 1 of the many many threads on N3. There IS NO FIX.

                              maybe i wasn't clear enough - NO FIX! N3 has been around YEARS in many other countries. Just because little VM has gone N3, doesn't mean a fix will arrive. there's no fix. No fix. nada.

                              the only chance MIGHT be card sharing which can NOT be discussed on this site.
