Which firmware version are you using, it will tell you in system info.

As you said the SV2 is fine after a rescan and the pvr is getting some channels but they are not locking onto some TPs it may be worth trying another earlier fw. The tuner drivers differ so that could be the cause. Hopefully the tuner is OK.

From memory there is no AU firmware, (I am not 100% sure), for the older PVR so I presume you are using manual code entry in the CAS menu?

If you need any firmware version please let me know. I will upload whatever you require.

You can also update via USB:

USB Download
1) Connect PC & STB with USB Cable
2) Main Menu-> Select ?HDD Mode Change PVR?-> Press ?0000? on the RCU
( Showed ?HDD Mode Change PC? )
3) In PC
a) Showed new Local Disk on the PC ( ?F:W? or ?E:W? )
b) Copy new Firmware in the Local Disk.
4) Remove the USB Cable
5) Main Menu-> Select ?HDD Mode Change PC?-> Press ?0000? on the RCU
Once ?HDD Mode Change PVR?, STB is automatically re-boot.
6) Main Menu-> ?Select HDD Interface? ->?Select Upgrade from HDD?
Select ?new firmware -> Press ?0000? on the RCU
7) Automatically upgraded & re-boot.

Hi Satsmo, I do believe I have downloaded the file here a year or two ago, Digital Kaos - Downloads - Starview The Box PVR 081208 UK Fix

I was going to re download them, and give it another go, but the link is dead. Would it be possible to re-upload this file?

my software version reads.. E_Ver 4.506, 15 Oct 2007

I seem to think, when I put on the later file, it never changed this Software info, but it definitely auto updated.

Thanks
xant

Tried normal scanning and only got 12 random channels , eventually got them all back , For the starview boxs , do a factory restore , go to advanced scan change start frequency to 218000 and end to 750000 now set your area frequency (6887 notts) then scan , all the channels should now come back ok , turn emu back on when finished.

hopefully this might help some who cannot get all channels back....

hi mate, i am from notts got all mine back but not got ss1 , it's changed to fx channell any ideas, cheers

Well, Apologies, thanks and whatever else... I am a dosy coont at times.. Wanna thank a few people, plus apologise to a few too.

Your dead right notts alan, I eventually scanned using your frequencies, and bang on mate the channels came back

Apologies to one or two, me saying I couldnt input frequencies... dozy bugger here didnt think to put em in with number keys, sorry!

Satsmo, thanks for the download... I actually had it already, so it never made a difference, I don't think. But thanks for your knowledge input, and software input too.

Finally box is back running again, altho I had to input codes manually.

just wondering if it will auto update still, or if that side of it is gone.

I have heard.. you gotta delete the fx channel, and the ss1 should slot into place, due to a few channels being on the same channel number or somat.... along them lines anyway.
