This is as easy as we can make it.
You have a starview 2 the box.
First of all make sure you have the latest firmware on the box. Should be 4.57
You check this from the menu - System setup/System information
If you haven?t got 4.57 you can download it from the sticky threads with the loader(4.03).
Download 4.57 + loader 4.03 to your desktop .
Open the file you downloaded to desktop. Extract the Bin file and loader to you r PC (remember where you saved the files)
Plug you Box into your Pc using RS232 female to female Null modem serial cable. (or USB to 9pin female cable- you will probably need the drivers for the usb. You can find these in the download section)
Locate the files you extracted and open the loader application 4.03. When box appears click on the Bin File button. Select the bin file 4.57 you saved to your PC. Press download and wait till it has reached 100%
Once you have flashed the new firmware go into the menu and do a factory reset.
Rescan the box choosing your local cable provider.(N*L etc) Choose english-autoscan
Once the channels have saved, exit out 3 times.
Press menu and then 1570 you will go into another secret menu.
Highlight the default key and press ok.
Then scroll down to the emu and turn it on.
Exit out and put your box onto a S*y sp1
Wait for it to update. This may take a while.
You should be now all up and running
