ill try another usb but i know its not usb
the file you gave me came up it is not support file too.
im lost here and on last chance!!!
i click on link you gave me
downloaded it (white icon on desktop)
moved it to usb
plugged in usb
powered box
went to restore data and noting same result
It will come up as an unsupported file if you are trying to open it on your pc. The file I gave you is the one every one else has updated to in Ireland and its fine for a genuine box.

Try another stick and see what the outcome is ;)

Is there any reason why this is and is it possible to be able to move and sort channels?

They are shaded out as the box maps channels as per the CC's list, so it replicates there line out to an extent. There is a Beta editor for the SV4 but it takes a bit of work.
Cheers scouser, is there a forum or link you could point me too with a step by step guide?

LOL guessed as much :) Yes they will work but obviously not with a Starview file, (although the bins are similar). Give me a mo and I will get the FW for you.

Taken directly from the readme, so I am not shouting :)

DIGIVOX XL USB BOX ONLY

YOU CAN UPDATE THE BOX VIA NULL MODEM CABLE OR USB DEVICE

TO UPDATE WITH USB DEVICE

1 PLUG THE USB DEVICE IN WITH BOX SWITCHED OFF

2 TURN BOX ON GO TO MENU AND ON THE BOTTOM LAST SELECTION USB

3 CLICK OK ON USB YOU SHOULD SEE THE FILE YOU PUT ON THE USB DEVICE SHOWING ON SCREEN

4 HIGHLIGHT IT AND PRESS OK YOU WILL THEN GET THE POP UP OPTION TO CANCELL OR YES PICK YES

5 WHEN YOU SELECT THIS YOU WILL GET ANOTHER SCREEN WITH THE DOWNLOAD BAR ON IT

6 IT TAKES A FEW SECONDS FOR ANYTHING TO HAPPEN SO JUST LEAVE IT DO NOT PRESS ANYTHING ON REMOTE

7 DO NOT DISCONNECT FROM THE POWER EITHER WHILE IT IS UPDATING

8 AFTER THIS IS FINISHED THE BOX WILL REBOOT JUST LEAVE IT AND LET IT DO IT

9 AFTER YOU SEE THE MENU AGAIN GO TO INSTALLATION AND CHOOSE PROVIDER AND SCAN THERE ARE ONLY LETTERS HERE

10 AFTER IT HAS SCANNED FOR THE CHANNELS GO TO MENU SYSTEM INFO AND PRESS OK THEN 1004 ON KEY PAD TURN KEY ON

11 EXIT TO MAIN TV AND ALLOW THE BOX TO UPDATE
