The Box PVR Dual Tuner - Factory Original Software

[xant14]

the latest file is 21/12/2008.bin
also out of curiousity where did you get the pvr 4.01 loader

I have never seen one of these boxes so can only guess that loop out from 1 goes to loop in of 2
is it possible to have a splitter where the cable feed is split and one goes to one tuner and the other to the other tuner.

yeah, aerial inputs are marked like this, looking from the back:



'tuner 1 output' ..... 'tuner 1 input'

tuner 2 output' ..... 'tuner 2 input'


Mine is into tuner 1 input, top right, looped out of tuner 1 output into tuner 2 input.

Been ages since I 'sorted' my box, so I can't see where you're going wrong.

Dave

reading through the thread where the latest update is some people did find it buggy so for you it may be worth going back to the earlier one

[wolves4eva]

did that

Hi

I have gone back to the older one.

The box now does everything, switches on and off - However the channels won't load. I have no channels on this box.

I have tried another box on the cable which works fine.
I have tried many different settings to try to download channels but with no success!

Could the built in receiver be duff - The box was working well untll power cut which lost everything!

cheers

have you tried scanning under a different provider? there is TW, Ntl etc... Just a thought. Mind mine shows good signal and lnb strength.

[wolves4eva]

SETUP - main cable goes to input 1?loop goes from output 1 to input 2?no adapter required other than those in the box. We advise you that you use a Splitter kit and feed both cables into the PVR - This will avoid any picture freezing/tuner problems.

STARVIEW PVR STARTERS GUIDE

To Start With :
Before doing a scan Goto Menu / Installation and make sure the (Cable Network Option) top item is set to your local provider if not correct it by using the right / Left arrow keys on your remote, then move down to Autoscan and wait till it has finished.

If channels not clearing go to Menu / System Setup / Press ok with Parental Control highlighted then press info then 2007, this should put you in the CAS SYSTEM. (May need to do this a couple of times quite slowly to get into CAS SYSTEM)
With Nagravision 2 highlighted Press ok?On the Provider ID Line select your provider by using the left / right arrow buttons on remote then press ok, wait for it to save then press exit. (Your provider needs to be the same as the one you selected in Cable Network Option above.
Finally make sure the emu Autoupdate is On (Bottom Item in Cas System.) Go to a scrambled channel and wait a while to clear?.hope this help's you

[wolves4eva]

thanks

I have tried those

I am going to switch box off in a moment and leave it off ti morning.

I will try all of this again in the morning to see if that changes anything!

Can't think of anything else to do....

cheers

maybe you got a slight power surge b4 the power cut or after it..and the box is damaged.

[wolves4eva]

oh

Thats along the line of what I was thinking

I am gonna try different firmware with different loaders.

I am only able to do this with rs232 cable as the usb option isn't recognised on my computer, I think the usb on the box is dead.....any way of fixing this or checking for sure?

Cheers
Dave

[wolves4eva]

Thanks to everyone for sticking with me

Cheers

So.... What was it in the end? Did you put your finger on it? Metaphorically speaking.
