db7 - had it right! I got you guy's from Google and now my life is complete great site!
I have a star view that has is still working but the pesky swine?s at virgin have just changed their software and i think my area now has an auto key change going on, we've lost viewing about once an hour all weekend thankfully the key being text to me within mins meant I could still watch the football.
It has never been this bad, my local ermm?(support) guy is trying to crack the new software but with no joy at present. From the threads above are you saying there is now an auto update feature? I have recently upgraded my box which auto scans and sort. channels to mirror the virgin set up but still have to put the key in every time there?s a scramble.

Hi

I am very grateful for the hard work put in to fw 8.02, but I have a problem if anyone can help?

I have to The Box Supers and 1 updated last night fine...the other keeps saying "flash update fail"...does anyone else have this problem?

regards

Danfoss

Yes there is a new firmware for the Starview 3 Super that has fixed the problem, it is in Eamo's FTA library at the bottom of my post. You will find it in the box Super folder, then Firmware, then The Box super Fix came out yesterday.

I have a sv2 box and after reading threads know that there is no fix at the moment, keep telling myself "just be patient". I know a fix will come but was just wondering about you guys with the SV super. Is it time to reinvest in a super box as this one will be the easiest to obtain new firmware.

Hi, I'm all new to this so hoping that everyone will be good enough to help, I have the starview 3 original (not clone) and now need to update the new software.

Firstly the RS232 which I got with the box will not connect to my laptop (theres no connection of this type), so was wondering if anyone can tell me whether I can connect this via an RS232 to USB cable instead??

Also can someone give me any basic info or paste a link as to how to upload the software as don't want to break the box??

Many thanks in advance
