Hi Jok,
I am afraid mine is a clone with the heatsink visible and I bought mine from these guys http://www.selectronicsonline.co.uk/
and now there site is closed for a maintenance I think they might have done the deed after floging CLONE BOXES.
anyway my requestful question is can the clone be fixed with MAX232 from tailor made circuts.
Many thanks for the input

Thanks JOK mate looks like i'm done for now till you brilliant people come up with the jtag fix for the box. Is there no way i could flash back the box with 1.07 and yes mate I'm in the UK

[upthedub]

So nothing i can do with it??Other than the bin.Its only 1 month old.

[cactikid]

do you know who you bought it off,contact them as they will have a record of sale.

Presume going by the OP's name and location they are in Dublin. With the premium channels gone to N3 I do not think that the other channels will remain on N2 for much longer, so the SV4 will not be of much use.

There is a jtag port on the SV4, (not the USB Max232 port), so the Jtag points are already present. It is the type of jtag required that is at question.

you can change the power supply board i think some of the elements are overheating up.

I bought the box from SELECTRONICS ONLINE and from last month their web site is closed for maintenance, I think they have floged the clone boxes and done the runner, if anyone know them or have their contact details please post and I shall try to get them to change the box,
many thanks for the input
