I am now about to drop kick this machine unless there is a kind soul that might be able to finger the problem.If you have got this far many thanks for taking the time to read and if you have any advice i would be extremely grateful.
I'm going totally off memory here so I'm not fully sure if it's correct?
I think it has something to do with changing the password.....
Try and set your password back to 0000 save the changes and go back in and change the password again to 7777 save and exit, then go back in again and see if it works?
If your current password is already set to 0000 just change it to 7777 & save.

Try this
1. Menu
2. Installation
3. Parental Lock
4. Red Audio Button for Goto Key Manager
5. Choose the top option and turn OFF the auto update.
i can sometime access the option screen but not all the times
6. Press the Blue button to choose the NAGRA option
7. Four arrows back take 0X55'
8. One down arrow takes you to the 0x00 - i.e. Key 0. Press OK
9. Up pops the HEX Keyboard - just type in the new numbers - it puts the dots in for you. Do this for Key 01 as well.
There wont be any key info if theres no channels present on the box.
Might help if you post up your approximate location.
You might be scanning for channels on wrong symbol rate, or trying to use a "cable" box in a "terrestrial" area.
Do you have a square ariel on your roof ?

I don't think you have the latest software on the Box.
You need an "A" file first then the latest software.
All the files can be found in the Library link at the bottom of this post.
When you have all your files downloaded.
Connect the Null modem lead from your box to your PC.
Open up the Stblink and select "Run"
DON'T do the Setup Comm.
Untick the "Maintain User Data" box.
Ignore the error message you will receive.
Select "Upgrade Software" and get the 742A file.
It will then start to transfer to you box.
When your PC reads "Transfer Complete" WAIT another couple of minutes before unplugging.
When the files are being transferred from your PC to the box, the led on the box will be flashing at this speed
DON'T unplug the box until until you see it flashing at this speed
When the flash is complete, unplug the box, null modem lead and exit the Stblink.
Power up the box again and WAIT until the light on the front goes Green.
Then do the above with the 2812208 file.
Then do your Auto Search.

i m living in UK n on nthell ,, i have replay lite and most the channels are working fine.
in last 15 days the box got dead but i made it work by gettin the code, its first time i have manually put the code and not gave to the box provider whose charges quite a lot.
but there r few channels which are still scrambled and i want to ask, can i manually scan any specific channel which is scrambled without disturbing other channels which are working fine. I dont want to take risk of scanning n thn losing every channel as i still dont have all the stuff to flash it back ,
like sky horror,sci-fi, etc are not coming so it is possible to manually scan it without flashing it.
and if possible can any one give the list of frequencies(or where can i find the list) for nthell in uk,

Hi Chigs.
Doing a manual for several different channels can be messy.
You would need to know the exact frequency of each channel and this can vary from area to area.
Your box should still work in the UK if you have the last software on it.
Last software was 2812208and is available in the Library link at the bottom of this post.
If I were you I would put that software on your box and re-scan from 100MHz to 866Mhz.
The scan take a long time with the Replay Lite.so I would let it scan will you are busy elsewhere.
Personally if I were I would invest in a Kryptview, best supported box and scans for channel frequency changes in standby mode.
Best of luck M8

Chigs,
You can get a Kryptview for £89 Sterling from here,
hxxp://www.skywonder.co.uk/product.php?productid=1034&cat=1&page=1
The last software release for the Replay Lite can be downloaded from here,
http://www.speedyshare.com/301339812.html
The STB link (Used to Transfer the software to the Replay Lite ) can be found here,
http://www.speedyshare.com/596711344.html
You will need a Null Modem Lead ( L71BT) to transfer the software to the box.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you have all your files downloaded.
Connect the Null modem lead from your box to your PC.
Open up the Stblink and select "Run"
DON'T do the Setup Comm.
Untick the "Maintain User Data" box.
Ignore the error message you will receive.
Select "Upgrade Software" and get the 2812208 file.
It will then start to transfer to you box.
When your PC reads "Transfer Complete" WAIT another couple of minutes before unplugging.
When the files are being transferred from your PC to the box, the led on the box will be flashing at this speed
DON'T unplug the box until until you see it flashing at this speed
When the flash is complete, unplug the box, null modem lead and exit the Stblink.
Power up the box again and WAIT until the light on the front goes Green.
Then do your Auto Search.
Start Frequency 100
End Frequency 866
With this software on the box you shouldn't need to manually input keys.

as long as you have the auto updates on, and the latest firmware, it should update automatically, if the frequencies of one or two channels have changed, then a manual scan should do it.
if all your channels are gone then follow brians tutorial about two posts back and put the latest firmware onto your box
DAMN THE BEGRUDGERS!!! |

The "A" file is this case is the initial software flashed to the box to enable it to receive cable channels.
You then need software to be flashed to the box to unscramble the picture.
The "A" file you need is 742A, then 2812208 software file.
You need a Null Modem Lead(Part No.L71BT Maplins) to transfer (Flash) the files to your Box
All the files can be found in the Library link at the bottom of this post.
When you have all your files downloaded.
Connect the Null modem lead from your box to your PC.
Open up the Stblink and select "Run"
DON'T do the Setup Comm.
Untick the "Maintain User Data" box.
Ignore the error message you will receive.
Select "Upgrade Software" and get the 742A file.
It will then start to transfer to you box.
When your PC reads "Transfer Complete" WAIT another couple of minutes before unplugging.
When the files are being transferred from your PC to the box, the led on the box will be flashing at this speed
DON'T unplug the box until until you see it flashing at this speed
When the flash is complete, unplug the box, null modem lead and exit the Stblink.
Power up the box again and WAIT until the light on the front goes Green.
Then do the above with the 2812208 file.
Then do your Auto Search.

Thanks brian for the quick reply, I thought the "a" file would be the 742a but wasn't 100% sure because when you download it the title is "qstpvr_cxl_ver742a_up". I have followed the directions exactly on two seperate boxes but still no joy, having uploaded the 742a file as directed I disconnect but when I reconnect the light goes green for 1 or 2 seconds before turning red and staying red for hours. Might throw in the towel and invest in a kryptview, again thanks for the help though.

The reason why it's staying on Red Light is because you unplugged the null modem lead before the flash was complete.
Done that meself LOL
Flash with the 742A file again but make sure to wait for the light to be flashing very very quickly.
From the time the 742A file starts to transfer it takes roughly 4 1/2 mins to complete, wait about a minute after all the blocks are loaded to unplug.
Even if you let it go on for 6 mins it won't harm the box.
Flash as above and you should be OK.

Again Brian thanks a lot for the help but still not happening for me. I have flashed the boxes loads of times in the past with no problems at all, I can even flash it now still with every other file except the 742a. I tried to use the 743a from the same library and then flashed with the 2812208 (both flashes worked giving the normal constant green light) but an auto search brought up nothing. When I use the 742a to flash I have tried giving it the normal amount (a few seconds after the light flashing accelerates into a rapid flash) I have tried to give it 6 minutes, 10 minutes, up as far as hours. I don't know now if I've knackered both replay lites I have by a dozen or so failed flashes or if the 742a file from the library is somehow incompatible with the boxes I have (maybe if their clones or something but I don't think they are). Anyway Brian I mainly wanted to tell you how I got on so that you knew you weren't wasting your time but I wouldn't worry about it any further cos I have my own head wrecked enough over it without doing to you as well, good luck

The most important part of flashing a Red Light Box is the Red Highlighted part, here,
Open up the Stblink and select "Run"
DON'T do the Setup Comm.
Untick the "Maintain User Data" box.
Ignore the error message you will receive.
Select "Upgrade Software" and get the 742A file.
The down side of the Replay Light Box is there will be no further Software releases for it.
The kryptview is the best supported box and with the Powerscan in standby mode, saves ever to look for channel frequencies for moved channels.
Best of luck M8 in what ever you do.

Brian,,
I need your help, as every one is aware that all channels are getting dropped or not working. I read few post and as there are not many replaylite users, i did what it was advised to starview ppl.
I did factory setting and rescanned it without any splitters connected. Now after scanning, i m not even getting a single channel. I would like to know that is there something called "emu" in replaylite. I also want to know how to go in secret menu from parental control. My question is, can the box be scanned directly by auto scan or the box needs to be flashed again. please help me Brian.

Hi chigs110
Your search settings look good except, change the password to 7777 and turn off parental lock.
Are you sure you have the right Symbol rate??

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just had a look at your other posts elsewhere and your symbol rate is correct if you live in Leicester.
If you are still having problems flash the box as set out in a previous above.
