Guys
Got Eurovox EX500PVR, updated firmware as per instructions (UFL_ex5000_15-07-08), scanned for channels using 6887 (Virg - old n:l area, notts), managed to get 36 TP's, however, only able to view free channels like bbc & itv etc. Sports and music etc stay scrambled. One thing I did notice not happen at the end of scanning the channels, it didn't say 'code being updated'. Is there any other s/w I should be adding?
System info as follows:
Model DVB-XC EX5000TDA
S/W Ver 1.0 ST4 Jul 15 2008
H/W Ver 2.0 T K5 +D
Bootstrap V001
S/W Build Kuro
I have tried factory reset and powerscanning and I am using the direct feed (in fact the only feed into the house) with no splitters.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards
Simon

Did you manage to flash the box?
joandsi
Press menu then OK enter 1968 make sure emulation is set to enable then 1968 again, a new hidden screen will then load pull left until Nagravision shows then press the yellow for Default keys, now exit back to main screen put the channel on Sly sports or a movie channel and wait for codes to update.

Thanks for the reply HiTeck, just done factory reset and power scanned again, this time worked, all channels unblocked, even got a cheeky message from virgin on one of their channels asking if I knew I was using an 'i!!egal' box. Thanks for all your help, would never have got through if it wasn't for all yours, and everyone elses, advice.
Regards
Simon

You would be best off just getting it flashed, when you return someone will help you out.

I can't flash to my Eurovox MaxV 2008. It shows Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port at Com 9, but when I come to download there are only four options...Coms 1 to 4. However, I then changed it (according to your instructions) to Com 2 and it downloads (showing dlnd on the display), sending and writing, but then fails!
I get 0000 at the front of the box at the start, and when I put it on standby I get the time e.g. 12:02.
After it has downloaded (and failed) the display changes to - and then ---- alternating all of the time!

Should have really posted in a Starview thread. But that's about the best for that area, if you are including both radio and TV in your channel amount. You may get a few more channels by manually adding them. But I would need to know what frequencies you have at the moment.
When replying could you please start another thread with something along the lines of "Starview Super Newbridge" and post a link back to this post for reference only. That way people here will see your first post and answer, but will keep it in a Starview specific thread instead of here, many thanks ;)

Just keep getting on at VM to get your signal correct, personally I think the Blue EV has a far superior Tuner to the others including the EX5000PVR, I have 2 around the house and had a similar problem this week with signal issues, the EX kept freezing whereas the other 2 EV blue were fine! got them out and they moved my location in the cab, works 100% now, just persist with VM, if your sub box is freezing they will have to sort the problem out.
All the best :)

Hi guys, I was wondering if you can help me.
I've got the EX5000 and have updated the firmware successfully, and connected the box direct to my VirginMedia cable, and I have done a full scan (100mhz - 870mhz) on all 3 symbol rates: 6.887, 6.875 and 6.952
The signal strength is well into the green, but it takes ages to scan, and then doesn't find any channels. Not even free ones.
I cancelled my TV subscription a few months ago, and just get the broadband at the moment. My main guess is this is why I'm not finding any channels. It's weird though because I can still get freeview channels through my Virgin Media TV box.
Has anyone else tried this when they just have a broadband subscription, or is there something I've missed and not tried?

You must be missing something really simple if the box is flashed okay, you can even connect it to your broadband cable and get the works and yes it will work from your TV cable input even though you cancelled, so check that you have the cable in correctly, and do a Factory Default before re-scanning, do you know who your provider is, you are obviously UK so it is either 6.952 or 6.887.
