eamo2 Thanks for recent info.Box was flashed when i got it,works well but when its been on a few hours comes up [scrambled or no video]have to turn router on and off,box on and off several times before problem goes.Sometimes if it happens late at night i wait till folowing day to get it on.

that sounds like a network problem,my wireless laptop was like that also last night on/off/on/off check your connections first.
forgot to ask tv package+ bb or just bb,making sure its not a signal issue/splitters etc.

my tv package is m ?

[cactikid]

ok if you have as said a tv sub signal should be higher than just broadband,sound like a bb problem,cables or wireless connections.

Update your firmware;
MENU--SETTINGS--S/W UPDATE--OK.
When complete try INFO button to check signal levels

Using ethernet mains adapters

I have just bought a Kryptview 750 but it came with old software so I need to do a re-flash. It seems that I cannot download the Flash software without sufficient posts. If there is a quicker way can someone please point me in the right direction.
thanks

Just a quick tip, when using mains ethernet senders (Homeplugs) plug them directly into the mains not via extension leads as this will reduce the signal and cause freezing...

eamo2 when you say update firmware,does that mean re-flash the box with the firmware in your earlier suggestion?

The menu says software update o.k.

Vista makes it more awkward, but if you got disk with USB-lead
it should be no problem to install

Have a read thru this guide
If you don't have disc for USB-serial lead take a look here Digital Kaos - Downloads - Prolific Driver Installer

Things seem to be going o.k. not seen scrambled no video since following advice,thanks again.Also seem to improve things when i put a filter on the main BT inlet socket,could have had a bit of noise interference there.

Hello again,got a couple of questions:-
1.Can someone please explain in the installation menu there is a sub menu:-Channnel data transfer,in it there is s/wtransfer and channel data transfer.When i`ve tried to use them after a short delay they display failed on the 780 screen?
2.When all channels are o.k.E.G.Films why does one that is usually alright come scrambled or no video.Is there a way to get it back?

s/w data & ch data transfer are for copying firmware or channel lists from one box to another. The sub-menu you need is S/W
UPDATE. Click OK on this & it will update your firmware
Have heard of people with some minor channels scrambled but
not movies or sports. Maybe your signal levels are weak. Make
sure all cables & connections are good. Downloading on PC may
cause loss of picture thru box
