Hi all, i've flashed 2 starview 1 boxes for my pals but neither of them are autoupdating. Its the sunrise bin from the cc toolbar.

Any ideas why it ain't working?

Yes! Lol.

I haven't got my laptop handy with the file on. It was the sunrise one released a few weeks ago.

I've ust d/l the latest files from the cc toolbar, says in the readme - 4. Click on "BIN File" on GTRom and load the
Auto update BIN File file that you have ?

The only bin files there are star multi rom.bin & STAR VIEW_H20060918_258eE_api.bin

Which one is it or do i try them both?

Cheers fellas.

you need to know if they are genuine boxes or clones to determine what file to put on the cpu is the big giveaway

look here
pics thanks to dooby2oon

1. First check the back does it look like one of these?

If it looks like copy dont worry yet, you might have 1st generation starview the copy had to be cloned from something right!
If it looks like the other you have nothing to worry about this is current starview back and not cloned yet..
2. Ok next check remote

If your remote looks like copy above it's not looking good 99% chance you have a clone.
If you have the starview back with copy on from pics above but have 1st gen remote then your ok you have 1st starview ever made
3. To check further ive aquired some photo's of both clone and 1st gen motherboards
(3 philips screws need to be removed from back to open)
First picture is clone the heatsink on cpu differs to original also capacitor's arn't straight also seems to be more capacitor's on psu board
Ive circled these now lets play spot the difference looked at 2 of these clone motherboards and both same.

Also note the red plastic blobs covering clone boxs screws
