vichead. If you want there is now an easier way to update the Starview 2 as of today and it is this The Box UK Fix Ver 4.55 051208 you will find it in Eamo's FTA Library at the bottom of my post, courtesy of scOuser, try both methods, the new easier way and if no joy then the box to box method.
Morning malci,

I try the box-to-box still the same problem. "ON" no Standby, blank screen, remote do not work. I will load the new fireware late and try to install it.
I have got to go and down load fireware to my sister and her two daughters boxes.

Regards vic

make sure you have the EMU "on"

exit...then go to sky sports.

Try a couple of different channels ...failing that turn box off for a minute and then see if it works!!

Don't think that is your problem but PAL 1 is the UK setting, there are a few people been having that problem since that box came out, it seems to be a firmware problem, some report that different firmwares solved the problem, but obviously I know that you need the A/U - but that is the correct UK setting.

My SV3 has always had the reboot 'quirk'. It came with API v8.00e, I tried earlier versions a while ago and it still did it. I was hoping it got sorted with v8.02e, but alas it never. However, maybe it is just my imagination or a coincidence, but it has done it a lot less since this recent flash....just once this week, in fact.
