Hi,
first post on here and im looking for help.
Just got a box - starview. hooked it up to the tV and all the channels tuned in.
Problem is the screen is black when i select a channel and after a few seconds comes up Scrambled or bad channel.
the only ones that seem to be working are the basic ntl stations (BBC, RTE etc).
anyone any ideas how i solve this?

The starview box is now over a year and more old, the up to date version is called "thebox".
Once you've run the installation of channels, save it, go to the main menu (press 1570 on your remote) this will bring up a secret menu, scroll down and turn on the EMU Key, this should then bring up all channels after it updates the software.

Starview will always recieve bad/scrambled channels due to its age.

Saxo , If you look properly at the title of the thread Emma has got "THE B0X" :)

Emma ,

Press > Menu then 1570
Turn EMU key ON

Exit , exit , exit


Also Press Menu > System Information and tell us whatt he API is cos if you have 2.60 you will need to update the firmware to get channels working

Yeah very ture, but the starview & thebox are the same thing, just thebox is a newer version. But the 1570 is still the same, the layout of the software/channels is also the same.

The box and the Starview are aesthecically the same but do as Celt said use different firmware.
