Hi,

I believe Virginmedia updated it's anti-piracy software 7th October 2009 (or so I'm told)

Most of my channels do not work now. Only the basic ones.

I use Starview 4 USB The Box Super

Can anyone help me locate a fix , if there even is one yet? or is someone working on one?

thanks.

You should have v 1.12 you can get it here

The latest firmware for all boxes is contained in the link at the bottom of my post and most of the addicts too.

V1.12 was released as v1.10 was bricking some of the early boxes. Won't do any harm to have it.

Is there an autoupdate fix for the older Starview boxes? Been fine since May, but hit 2 days running now. My box is around 3 years old, thanks

When you say "older Starview boxes" which is it 1-2-3? - if it is the original Starview 1 (Just says Starview front top left hand side of box) then you should have the December 08 fix which is still CryptStar-v1.5.zip AU. It contains 2 bin files Core.257 for the clone (But it is perfectly safe for the Genuine if in any doubt) and Core.400 for Genuine, you will find all available Firmware in Eamo's FTA Library - link at the bottom, just look in the folder bearing the name of your box, there does appear to be a daily roll in progress in the UK at present.


Edit:- Should say that you should be posting in the relevant thread to your box, it is a no no to hijack someone else's thread with regards to a different model (i.e. SV4), just a friendly bit of guidance.

Hi jeff79 - link for latest firmware for Super 4 usb for Irl is below. However, starview 4 is not delivering premium channels in Ireland and to date there is no fix for this problem. I think there is a concensus that it will be a long while before there is. Starview have released the starview 5 box but this does not solve n*l problem in Ireland either. Daxon

hi guys, i have starview 4 the box super USB and a starview 3 box as well. All the channels except the movies and sky sports and setanta are working fine.

Can anyone tell me how likely it is that the encrpytion will be broken and a fix be posted? I remember about 5 or 6months ago the channels all going as well and people were posting that that was the end of the starview boxes. But then a fix was posted and hunky dorey again.

People are again saying the channels are gone for good, but i have faith in people here to solve the problem! Or am i being overly optimistic!!! hahaha

Thanks!

C****s are moving channels to nagra 3 hence sorts and movies missing in those areas. As to a fix - how long's a iece of string?
