a780 running fine fingers crossed

Myself i rely heavily on being able to wach my box as i'm housebound and severly disabled and my benefits cant stretch to the real deal and if my box went down i would be devastated. Going back to preview after years of free enjoyment and eccess to new firmware is not something i cherish more like a nightmare. Do i sit around search forums or related sites for a fix i'm getting stressed looking at my expiry date. i cant afford to bin my box do i buckle to sv support team? please have you got some postive solution to this sudden greed? Dont want to sound like a loser so i would appreciate some feed back please. Thank you delwashy.

It was known in most places the SV would last only a year at most hence the reason to buy the KV
Now that SV gave moved the goalposts and shorten the deal I for one would not trust their support.
It may be best to use ebay before it expires and try a KV but there is guarantee on that box either.
Then there's the sat side again no guarantee on that and a fee will be required.

Thank you for your quick reply and advice i'll look on ebay for KV and use it as back up,why this sudden rush to grab the poor mans money cos if i didn't have any cash flow problems i'd have the rel deal with focking suguar on top.I suppose it's the sign of the times but thanks again and i hope to communicate again an happier subjects. Cheers pal.

you could also try skywonder by phone or email for the kv780

I just bought a SV7, its says 'scramble' I have put carling 1.03/1.04 and sm etc still does not work? please help?

wrong firmware smgo 221 in the sv 7 section and you will have to pay extra to view channels.

look in menu then utilities click system info and read there i think you probs reached your expiry date if not got to channel 511 and then push 1819 see if it connects but give it a minute or 2

i have just down loaded fresh version sv7 firmware and back on for now!!!!!!

yh I hav checked it, November...

hi there, iv updated the box just as in the instructions but when i put in 1819 on channel 511 it says 'enable' but all the channels are still scrambled? what do i do? is there something i may have done wrong along the way? thankss

at a glance did you pay a sub to view?

if box has message not registered -you will need to pay a fee to view

I have a wierd problem.. I am aware that the SV7'S now require a sub to view all chanels and as been " not connected" for a while BUT on friday evening i was watching BBC1 and thought i would just flick through and would you believe it ALL the chanels was on and connected and stayed on till this morning when low and behold the scramble icon appears and the not connected ... any ideas on whats happened or if anyone else as had the same thing happen to them
Also when i try to update the firmware i make sure the usb drive is formatted to FAT32 but when i try to load it on the SV7 nothing comes up as though there is nothing on the usb stick
My box currently ass an experation date of 15 October 2011

it may also be a break in lan services you should not have to reflash boxes all the time.have you tried powering off at the back modem router and box for a min then on.

nope i didnt pay a sub to view and as far as i know, a message of it not being registered has not appeared either :S

Starview at the moment is all up in the air,appears to be a different set-up for everyone.
Are there any FTA channels showing BBC ITV etc
Check system info I think yhat show when box is due to go off.
Has the box ever work with encripted channels

Yes tried that when it 1st happened ... put the firmware on the box yesterday @ 12pm and all come back on "connected" on 99% of the stations didnt even have to do the 1819 enable was just on .... wierd but not complaining, been looking at the blade box but seems a little to complicated for a novice like me (hence why i have SV plug in download and install FW and hey presto)

yep the FTA channels are working atm and the box worked in the past but went down a few months ago.
and i have been on system info but not sure how to find the expiry date :S

if the box went down months ago i would say wrong firmware is on it and maybe to get it running a sub may be needed.
in system info what firmware does it say?

Just to add to the above,this is from another member on the forum
If you look in menu then utilities then system info itl say expiry date when your box il go off.
Reckon you may have to subscrible

I've pm'd you with details on the Blade box. Its really not hard to setup at all .

You'll hopefully find the info useful when you finally lose patience with Starview's rubbish server and decide to spend your money wisely on a nice blade bm7000 hd box.

Cheers for the info but the main problem is i dont have a dish to hook the blade upto ....lol no doubt there is a post in the blade section on how to DIY or somewhere on the net so might have a look into it .. failing that could always go with a kryptview a780 but who knows in the future what will happen with them as the saying goes "you pay your money and take the chance" whichever way its far cheaper than monthly subscriptions to actual provider

i was wondering i anybody has go the latest starview 7 firmware august 2011
thanks people

post1 and welcome aboard.

did exactly as the script in installing but msg still showing as expiry date of today 15 Aug 2011 and confirmed in the system Information. So cant view any channels.

Any ideas how to progress from here.

Thanks guys/gals in advance, this site is so cool. PS Sorry I am a newbie
