moving you connection up or down in outside box may help if someone can do it for you

hello all
if i'm in the wrong thread here just chase me. I've had a quick look for a question relating to this but haven't seen one. i've got a st*rview box with t*l*w*st. i had lost my channels so i updated the firmware (version june 2007). It had been working ok for about 3-4 weeks but there gone again. i've tried autoscan and it say's it has found 210 channels but they ain't there. when i go to nagravision i don't see the normal listing i usually get. thre's no t*l*w*st just things like omne - polsat - chorus etc. anyone have any idea where i screwed up? i'm in scotland.
thanks in advance.

Sorry haven't got back to you PC crashed (when it rains it pours)
It turned out to be the OK button on the remote was sticking, incompatibility between remote control, childs fingers and STRAWBERRY JAM

Hi guys. I have SV2 Box and SV3 Super. Does anyone know of any issues that would result in these two boxes running simultaneously in different rooms, using the same connection?

I've noticed one or two glitches where some channels on the SV2 disappear while the SV3 is switched on, but they then return when SV3 is switched off.

Has anyone else tried this and if so, are these problems normal?

Press Menu > Channel Edit > 0000 or 1668 > Press YELLOW button to EDIT > Highlight the channel you want to UNLOCK > Press the GREEN button > Use your \/ /\ arrows to move it to the next ch@nnel

Repeat till you have them all unlocked

When your finished , press EXIT and it will save them for you

OR


Menu > Factory Setting
PIN 0000
OK to delete

Turn box off at the back for a minute and turn back on

English > Installation
Choose Provider etc
Automatic Scan
Press OK
Channels found
Exit

Press Menu then 1570
Turn EMU key ON

Exit , exit , exit

This will happen if you are using a splitter and you will need a booster to improve the signal.
