Hi guys, new guy here hoping to find an electronics wizard.
My StarviewPVR (twin tuner) has stopped working properly and just shows "On" but the remote won't make it do anything. Another thread somewhere else pointed to component failure with some Caps in the PSU, well Maplin supplied replacements but no change. Next it was suggested that the regulator on the main board had gone, and it turned out that it had, changed it, and it promptly blew again. So have changed it for a higher spec regulator but it just gets very hot so I switch off. I know this will mean that there is another component or 2 or more gone on the main board but with SMD components it is impossible for me to identify which ones.
It is definitely the main board because if I disconnect it, then the hard drive spins up which it doesn't do otherwise.
Does anyone know of any "expertise" on this subject in the Liverpool area I can call upon to assist ?

Cheers and Happy Crimbo
Woody
(Incidentally, all this went on before any code changes so it isn't down to that aspect of working.

yep.. press download again on the gtrom loader while the box is off at the back and then turn it on 3 seconds later. it may take a few attempts.

If it will not flash with the correct firmware then you have now created a bad flash situation, so the only way that you are going to recover is to try the Bad Flash Method of recovery, so use the latest fix, the Core400.bin (Genuine Box) or Core257.bin (Clone Box) with the GTRom loader both here >>>>

Firmware BIN
http://www.4shared.com/file/76381726/e8a...rified=3bea6c84

Loader GTRom 4.00
http://www.4shared.com/file/49191796/336...rified=c76188f6

And now click on the link Marked Starview Help 1st Line at the bottom of my post, and go down the page to the Instructions For Bad Flash Recovery Method, it may take a few goes, but you have to keep trying, you could succeed first time or 25th time, just keep trying.

He would like his tv fixed before then so if anoyone out there is interested in a nixer to flash both the boxes please pm me. He lives in Artane so and he can drop off and pick up the box locally.
Thanks!!

If the box will not go into standby mode :-
Then you have had a BAD flash, what you now have to do to recover from it, is to use the bad flash recovery method, so click the 1st Starview link at the bottom of my post and go down the page to the Bad Flash instructions. Make sure that you have the correct firmware for the box, and follow the instructions, it may get it first time, but it could take in excess of 20 plus attempts, you have just got to keep trying okay.
Also are you sure you have loaded the correct firmware as the file contains both Genuine box and Clone firmware.

Lads,

Was on here before and got some great help off sc0user to get my b0x going. Back again with another problem though. I had a break down like everyone else just before xmas and we still haven't got the thing up and running. A mate of mine got some codes that were successful in Galway however they havent worked here in Cork. I'd say it's because they were for n*l and not c0rus which is what we are running off. At the moment I'm getting just santy ireland and rte 1. The rest are completely gone. Every time I go into the channels it starts updating and goes well over 100% updating and then a blank screen before it trys to update again. What do I need to do to get the thing going again? The system is "The B0x Super star view 3". I realise I might have to download some firmware but I'm not sure how to do this or where to begin. Any help would be great. Thanks lads.

Josh.

So which box have you got? SV 1-5 You only get help when you tell us
a) Which box you have
b) The problem you have
c) Which is the installed firmware ATM

Information you give us helps us to assess and solve your problem without it we are as dumb as you.

For the people on here who help too much information is better than none.(but that would be your opinion)

E.G. have you a genuine box or a clone one?

Pip
