no, mate, nothing has changed in uk. ignore eirejk.what box have you got and have you got correct f/ware for it?
try menu, 1570, default then back to slyspts. wait for update. also, missing channels can sometimes be found after 999. loads of others there. try scan with t/pest as well. i get stuff with t/pest and xc/w..in stockport.
do you do factory reset as well? hope this helps. ynwa

yes, mate, you need latest software. pretty sure you have an sv1 or sv2. different software for all 4 boxes. you need a null modem cable to download from pc to your box. also you need to get software from the above red stickies. it can be a bit daunting at first,but well worth the effort. i'm not used to sv1/2 but the guys here will help....
