    missing channels

    Hi,
    Im looking at a friends starview box (think its model 2)
    some channels are missing, I think they have been lost to a channel re-arrangment - how do I go about getting them back?
    Im assuming the box is no longer supported & I cant find a transponder list.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Ive tried re-scanning, etc.
    Area is South Wales/Swansea
    I cant find ITV2, 3, etc.

    Same happened to my Dreambox, but a brute force scan fixed taht.

        Yep, like I said, this is my friends box. I prefer a dreambox.
        Just need to find a transponder list or somthing so I can do a manual scan for the missing channels.

        Oh, registration date D
        No idea there!!!!

            plenty of posts for people to read as answered before many times,try a factory reset 0000 to delete,auto scan provider,and emu to on -menu1570-key emu to on and exit.
            all boxes will be off soon because of new encryption called nagra3,starts off with loss of movies and asian channels.

              keys are now a thing of the past=nagra3 rules=blank screen now or later.

                its not nagra 3, its all the transponders got changed about 2-3 months ago & a lot of channels are missing because of it.
                Things like sky arts, sky sports2, itv3, etc.
                Just random channels which I assume are on new transponders.

                  if you are scanning through splitters or extensions you will lose channels,always scan from direct feed.sometimes a factory reset 0000 to delete then power off box for a min then on and auto scan and emu on.

                    Thats what ive ended up doing.. its been a long process!
                    Ill show him how to scan & ask him to call me when he finds a channel is missing.. its quite easy to find the freq, just goto manual scan on my dreambox for the channel he wants & thats it.
