I have a Kryptview, having previously had Starview and Starview2 boxes. There is absolutely Zero EPG available with the Kryptview (in Dublin).. I note that ebay sellers say the EPG is fully tested in several UK cities ... no mention of anywhere in Ireland. No EPG is a big downer as you can't even get info on current program. Has anyone had any success with EPG in Ireland or are there any firmware updates available ???

This issue is currently been looked at and should be resolved shortly. Best bet is to ask TMC at taoilormadecircuits as he will be able to give you more info. He has also set up a new site here http://www.kryptview.co.uk/ you will see him on many forums.

You need to use a null modem cable.

I'm using the RS232 cable that came with and connecting it to the laptop. Com 10 is being assigned, and I set the bitrate to 115200 and all other settings as advised.

Sounds like you are also using an adapter.
To see which port your USB adapter is connected to, connect your USB adapter and follow these instructions:
1. Go to the Start Menu
2. Right click on "My Computer"
3. Select "Properties"
4. Click on the "Hardware" tab
5. Click on "Device Manager"
6. Click the + sign next to "Ports (COM & LPT)"
7. One of the listed ports should indicate which port your USB adapter/null modem cable is connected to (e.g. COM1, COM2, COM3, etc.)
8. Go back to the loader and make sure it is looking at the correct port.
9. You should be able to download firmware once the correct port is selected.

I am connecting the RS232 cable to the laptop with a serial to USB adaptor. Device manager sees this as Com 10. I have changed the loader to tell it to look at Com 10 (it defaults to Com 1) When I press start in the loader, and press RED RED STANDBY (as advised) the message "The downloading is not requested" appears. This message isnt very informative. I can get no further.

What message is not "informative"? As you should change your port settings in device manager not the loader.

The loader defaults to and expects COM1, but Device Manager says this is already in use, and shows my RS232 cable being connected to COM10. So I changed the default in the loader to COM10 and then got the error message. Can I force the cable to be on COM1, and if so will this effect whatever is already using COM1? How do I find out what's using COM1 anyway?

Follow my advice to step 7. Locate your USB converter (port 10 as you said. )
Right click on that port and select properties. Then select port settings, then select advanced. At the bottom of that tab will be a drop down box with the port selected (port 10 in your case). Use the drop down to select another port (eg 1, 2 or 3). If the port you want to use is already allocated to something else, you can use the same procedure to reassign that port after you have finished.
Save the selections in the usual way. The USB converter will be permanently assigned to the port you selected.
Sorry but I have to leave if you have any more problems just post back.

If your in the UK - Try this
Auto scan,
Network (choose ure provider), Press OK
Channel search (ALL)
press yellow TP search this displays a list of Area providers, choose the one nearest to where you live.
press green to Start search
leave until search is complete, this can take any thing up to an hour or more. When this is complete, go to a scrambled channel and leave the box on, the box will then pick up the keys required - This can take anything from 5 mins to an hour or two, depending on the CC and signal,
In Ireland its a different matter again to the above

OK folks - got my Kryptv*ew yesterday and was all excited about my new purchase. Yes indeed it does appear to be a good box and yes it did do exactly what it says on the tin - however being a complete newbie the installation wasn't the walk in the park I thought it would but thanks to some fine folks on this site I got it up and running. In Dublin - It's not simply plug and play - frequencies have to be added / changed to find a 7th TP that's not listed out of the box - that one took a while to figure out - the instructions manual is a bit of a waste of trees amd the EPG doesn't work at all - I know it being worked on so I'm not that worried but there's my 50cent of info - overall delighted with the unit although I only have it 2 days!!! but as it becomes more popular I'm sure the support will grow...
this is Driving me MAAD!!

Firstly, bobby I sent him a pvt message as I was in work at the time, below is the instructions, they werent wrote by me and I take no credit for them, They were wrote by a sound poster on another site
Secondly, there is a new piece of software for the EPG for Irish user's.
This is the set-up for Dublin area on true cable.
1. GOTO TO INSTALL
2. GOTO AUTO SCAN
3. PRESS YELLOW FOR TP SEARCH ON NETWORK IT WILL BRING YOU TO THE MANUAL SETUP SCREEN
4. ENTER 291,000 HERE AND OK THEN EXIT BACK TO INSTALL
IT WILL FIND 7 TP'S NOW INSTEAD OF 6 THIS WILL BE DONE WHEN IN THE MANUAL SCREEN
5. NOW PRESS EXIT WHEN FINISHED AND THEN START AGAIN.
6. THIS TIME GOTO AUTO AND PRESS GREEN BUTTON SEARCH AND IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 30 SECS AND NOW SHOW A NEW TP IN THE LIST[00]4275300
THIS FREQ IN HIGH LIGHTED IN ORANGE,
7. NOW PRESS OK AND IT WILL BEGIN TO LOAD TP'S
WHEN THIS IS DONE IT WILL THEN LOAD THE CHANNELS AND THATS IT DONE.

Hi MICKAH,
Thanks again for your help - got the unit up and running after a bit of playing around all chann*ls 100%.
Can you tell me a bit more about the software update for the EPG - where can I get it cos at the moment there's no EPG for the Kryptv*ew (in Dublin at least...) but I did hear a new software update would resolve this
thanks again dude...
