Freezing v8s openbox

[paulmcnamara]

hi all, could somebody please help me? I've recently purchased a v8s openbox which for the most part is ok. However, it freezes on three or four channels which just happens to be my favourites. I've tried new leads, one sky cable instead of two, removed usb stick and am losing patience! If anybody has any advice that may fix this problem I would be very grateful. Paul

one sky cable instead of two

You should only have one connected the other is the feed cable for another box
have you updated the channel list....when was it last updated ?

[paulmcnamara]

bought the box brand new and loaded by a mates friend last week so I assume channel list to be updated. I would update the channel list if I knew how to, any advice? Thank you for your posting.
