NTHell has gone down again for me even though i am using the new firmwar e and i am definately on NTHell. I have the Eurovox Max V with Kuro3 10-4-08 and i have followed the guidelines EXACTLY as described:
1. Load new firmware
2. Do factory reset BEFORE scanning for any channels
3. Do "FAST INSTALL" to scan for channels
4. Watch & enjoy.
Still it cut out today at about 5PM. Am i missing anything? Has this happened to anyone else in Dublin 15? Could this be due to a different issue altogeather?
I have gotten a few up and running with the new software so have cobbled together a few step by step instructions which worked fine for me:
Link is in my sig
Whatever you say, say nothing when you talk about you know what for if you know who might hear you, you know what youll get. Youll be sent off to you know where for you would not know how long. Maybe I could search through the threads so you dont have to ??

If you change your firmware, you won't need to input the codes or come on here asking for them!!

You should have the latest Kuro 3 11/04/07 for the Red Box to allow AU. You will find all you need in Eamos FTA Library at the bottom of my post.

Hi all,
Not too sure why but the new firmware simply does not work for me at all once they roll! I have installed it 100% correctly but it went off today while the parents were watching something. However, i never normally need to put in any new codes. It will either: A) Come back itself after an hour or more (rarely happens) or, more frequently, B) I can do another fast install which takes ages (Normally 20 mins from red to action).
I'm assuming other Max V users dont even notice when they roll (or do they? If so,do they have to do something to get it back or is it automatic?). Is there a specific setting on the box i'm missing? Or is it another problem altogeather? Anyone else on NTHell North Dublin in a similar situation?
FYI, I have the Eurovox Max V with Kuro 3 released on 10/4/08. My box is a genuine Max V purchased only a few months ago and it only ever had healthy software on it.
Also, on a different note, here is the complete Sunday Times "Dodgy Boxes war" article:
"Firm vows decoder crackdown
TV VIEWERS who use illegal equipment to tune into premium channels on the cheap are set
to face a major crackdown.
Cable firm UPC Ireland is thought to be losing millions of euro`because viewers are buying illegal decoder boxes and using them to watch UPC's 130-channel digital pay-TV package.
UPC charges customers ?32 per month for the channels ? but unscrupulous viewers can get an illegal decoder for a one-off payment of ?110 without paying a penny to UPC.
Now the company is fighting back and warning customers not to be tempted to buy the illegal equipment.
Offence:
"Use of equipment such as Starview, The Box, Eurovox, Digivox, Dreambox or similar decryption devices is a criminal and civil offence and UPC reserves the right to prosecute offenders to the fullest extent of the law," the firm said.
UPC is also making the lives of nonpaying viewers more difficult ? by changing the encryption codes on their channels so the illegal boxes are no longer able to unscramble them.
During the Premier League clash between Manchester United and Arsenal last Sunday, UPC changed the code for Sky Sports 1 twice, causing the black market boxes to lose the signal.
The cable TV firm is also cracking
down on the suppliers of the boxes, with a successful prosecution over a find by gardai of ?70,000 worth of illegal equipment at a premises in Finglas, Dublin.
However, no successful lawsuit has yet been brought against a person who used one of the illegal boxes at home.
Illegal:
The decoders are illegal under Irish and European law, breaching both broadcasting and copyright legislation.
They are usually sold at dodgy-street markets or on the Internet for between ?110 and ?250 and work as long as UPC doesn't change the encryption codes on their channels.
If they do, then the dodgy boxes are useless until the user finds out the new encryption code and programmes it in.
Users on a number of Internet forums advise each other on how to use the boxes and post up new encryption codes whenever the codes are changed.
SeIutiovt
However, UPC spokesperson Anna-Maria Barry said the firm is planning to block out the boxes for good.
"We will be working with our encryption solution providers to introduce another level of security to render these boxes permanently inoperative." she said."
Three things of note:
1) Quote:
...The decoders are illegal under Irish and European law, breaching both broadcasting and copyright legislation....
- Isn't this a blatant lie? I heard it was only illegal to access the channels with decoders and not own or sell them (not that it makes much difference to us in fairness)
2. Quote:
UPC charges customers ?32 per month for the channels
- Total codswallop. If it was really that price, i MAY consider actually paying for it. But then, the picture quality is actually better on the Eurovox anyway.
3) Quote:
We will be working with our encryption solution providers to introduce another level of security to render these boxes permanently inoperative.
Even in the unlikely event they actually could do this, i'd be over to the superior service and choice on Sky so fast, as would many others i'd imagine. It would probably be cheaper for them having us paying the base fee and hoping noone else finds out about them. :-D
So anyway, any help with my situation? :-(

Saw that item in Sunday Times, "they would say that wouldn't they".
I have installed the new Kuro software as well. Like yourself when the code rolls I get the message "please insert card" then the box just sits there.
I find that if I switch the box off and back on, using the remote control, the message then changes to "searching for codes" and it clicks in, normally within a minute or so.
My Eurovox is definitely not rolling automatically with the code changes. I have even tried the update in your last post, dated 18.04.08.
It promises to be a permanent "fix" for the Eurovox, however, I still have the same problems here in Waterford.

Strange as the 18/04/08 version works and works quite well I may add. Press menu, press OK, type 1968 TWICE on remote and press yellow button to default keys. Then exit all the way out and put it on Sly Sports 1. You may be stuck in an update loop.
Also make sure your system info reflects the correct firmware version.

Hi Scouse,
Can you elaborate on the system info bit please? Not quite sure how to do it. I have only updated one of the two boxes and left both on. If one goes, then i'll know for sure that the new SW dated 18/04/08 works.
Also, awesome gif :-D

Scouser,
Sorry about the confusion. Was a little hasty in my remarks.
