      If you are not sure how to turn the key code on go into menu press 1570 and then you are taken into the secret menu and turn key code on.

                I'm having the same problem, i personally think they have changed the enrcyption hence the black screens.

                  if vemin had done that we would all off, wouldn't we? so thats not the answer. btw, what area are you in? and do you get normal stuff??

                        try rescanning your box.
                        make sure you turn key code back on in the hidden menu.
                        to access it press menu then press 1570.

                            Thanks Maca , but this method has been tried many, many times over, same result as before losing channels, and black screen, Like Rick problem also started on 2\3 nov, any other advice would be appreciated. Thanks
