      Looking around this thread everyone seems to be saying that if your in the UK, to not bother with this version and stick with 1.07.

      Why won't this one work in the UK?

          The thing is, I'm on NTL and currently using ver 1.10 and haven't had any problems with it.

          The only thing I find annoying is that when you enter the EPG after switching it on, it automatically starts to do a full EPG download which takes ages, and if you exit the download before it's completed, it clears all the listings that were already there....

          With the previous FW version I was on, I would hardly get any listing in the EPG even after a full download.

          I'm hoping this new one won't invoke the EPG download automaticaly, but only when I tell it to.

              Actually, what would be perfect is if it could just download EPG updates silently in the background whilst your watching a program.

              Some kind of EPG date or version checking might be needed in order avoid constantly downloading the same data.... something similar to downloading virus scanner updates..

                  Just some food for thought...

                  Shame they don't have an official channel for contacting them with request or feedback...

                  or maybe they do and I just don't have the details...

                            Hi all, first post here, have recently got involved in the world of starview and have just stumbled upon this helpful site

                            Originally posted by jdandc69
                            After succesfully installing the new firmware V1.12 on my TheBoxSuperUSB, I then installed the logo file. After it automatically rebooted, the screen turns green and I am asked to choose a language.
                            If I try to re-install the v1.12 firmware( also tried V1.07 ) I receive an error "it is not a file of the IRD"

                            I copied the firmware file to the root of USB stick, powered off the Box, inserted the USB stick and then switched on.
                            Again I am asked to choose language, and then when usb is selected and I try to install the firmware, the same error appears.

                            Any ideas or suggestions ?

                            Boot sequence is as follows -
                            Power on
                            88 88
                            88 82
                            b-01
                            Green screen
                            Language select
                            (logo does not display at any point)


                            I managed to do a automatic scan and it populated, but when I change channels etc, I can hear the channel but the picture is not displayed.
                            If I change channel the screen displays a scrambled image.
                            I am getting exactly the same apart from the end result. I still only get channels 1 to 5. All of the premium channels show the $ sign but I can't view them or hear any audio either. I am concerned about the 88 88 and 88 02 sign as I have read these are associated to errors that lead to bricking boxes. Can someone shed some more light on this? Am I doing something mega wrong? Or should I just follow that dummies guide on here with fw version 1.07?

                            Many thanks all

                                Just wondering if this will help mates box . all pay channels went off last week in Coventry. Cant remember what firmware hes got on it but I think its 1.07. Anyway have emailed him 1.07 and 1.12 and asked him to try both.
                                Anybody else had probs with pay channels in Coventry lately?
