Need some help please.
I have a Black Eurovox MaxV which was dropping channels, giving a no signal error. I also have a replay lite which works fine off the same input. So I upgraded the box again,I had already done it in April, with the UFL_MaxV_Kuro3_18_04_08 file. I then selected factory default & did a rescan but only 4 channels have come up but no stations. My settings are as follows
Model - DVB-XC BOXV DTA, S/W VER 1.0 STC4 APR 18 2008
H/W VER 2.0T K5, BOOTSTRAP V001, S/W BUILD KURO
Any ideas would be appreciated

I see in Eamo's library there is a firmware update dated 28/04/08.
Should I update my Eurovox MaxV with this I wonder?

I had a similar issue a few weeks back. You could try going to 'config', select 'clear data' put in your PIN, select 'factory default'.
It should then say 'wait factory settings' or something like that.
Then I needed to make sure that my factory settings was on the 6.887 frequency (the same as when you do the scan) for Dublin NTBell-end.
I was doing the scans on the 6.887 freq in the powerscan menu but I also had to go into the settings & make sure after the factory default that I had selected 6.887 in a seperate menu option (for my EV a different freq. was selected by default which had me banjo'd until I checked - I could see the channels were being picked up but I couldn't view them).
Anyway try this - worked for me.

You could see the channels because you had found the transponders, but hadnt updated the channels also.

It is specifically for boxes with the 8% signal problem, is that what you have? It will work on all Max Vs but it is recommended to stick to the 18/04/08 firmware, unless you have the 8% problem.

Thanks Janeymack, I'll try that tonight when I get home. I think it's ok though.
Scouser, what's the 8% signal problem?
Thanks for all the help, great site.

If you only see signal level/quality at 8% whan scanning. Either it is your firmware, tuner or you have selected the wrong provider when you see this.
Honestly if your channels were fine for a while. I would try a powerscan from 290.000 to 420.000 using symbol rate 6887. Just do a factory reset at 6887 and input that info. See if that works.

Thanks Scouser.
I'm using the 6887 freq alright. I'll try it again tonight.
The signal in my area isn't great in general so maybe it has got worse & caused my problem but my Replay Lite box works fine.
I might try a signal booster & see if that helps.
Thanks again

Well not exactly - I took the new CDF files for your page & tried that but it still didn't work.
Even though I was doing scan on 6.887 in the powerscan menu I couldn't watch the channelsthat were being picked up.
I had to go into the config menu & factory defaults and also change the default value that was been added there. Changed it to 6.887 & all worked fine.
Now all I need to do is fix the time problem on my EV & I'll be sorted...Cheers.

I presume you are in Ireland? If so, its a problem specific to the Irish EPG stream, you need to follow these instructions:
1. Pull plug on the back of the EV for a few seconds then plug back in again..
2. When EV powers up, immediately press menu, configuration and time settings.
3. Set correct time using GMT settings.
4. Then turn GMT OFF.
5. Press blue button to save and exit.
It may take more than one attempt so just be patient, it does work. One thing to note though when you have the EPG correct, is to just put it in standby at night, if you unplug it you will have to go through the whole process again.

Yeah thanks for that sc0user - I'll give that a shot. I've been doing it through the menu at the moment which is ok - but when you fix the time the programmes are sometimes still an hour ahead so you never get a real view of what's on with out hitting the EPG button...... I'll give your advice a shot.
Ahhhhh the sacrifice of free cable.
