hi you need gt rom 8 to flash drive mine works a treat never had no problems you get all the channels hope this helps

[theyel2001]

what software version do you need for the starview 3 ?

[jaytag]

gt rom 8.00 is the newest software for starview 3 it will stop it rebooting it self you should have noprobs after that

[satsmo]

Version 8.00 still causes reboots on the later SV3s. Use 7.09 Beta.

i was a it confussed as i didn't realise the bin file was in the gtrom already

where do i find 7.09 ???

[satsmo]

Yes its in a UFL, (Unfied Firmware Loader), format. I have put it here for you Digital Kaos - Downloads - The Box Super Firmware V7.09 Beta

thankyou very much.
the channel editor ?
do you use it the same as the starview 2 ?
covert to old - convert to new or does the software put them in the correct catorgries ?

[satsmo]

You cannot use the SVCE on a SV3 as it maps the channels as per VM already.

starview 3

so will the software put the programs in order ??

[satsmo]

Yes as said it will map them as per a VM subbed box.

dochuggybear - you sorted yet mate? Can help if you still need it. Did my first Starview flash a couple of weeks ago, so still a newbie myself.
