Hi all,

Im a Eurovox user but a friend of mine has asked me to flash his starview 1 (genuine) and his mums Starview 1 (Clone).

I flashed them both today with the .bin files CryptStar v1.5-Core400 (gen) and CryptStar v1.5-Core257 (clone).

Once done it searched for transponders and channels which it found but says scrambled or bad signal when on the $ channels.

Am i using the correct firmware or am i doing something wrong?

Any help greatly appreciated

click on Menu and enter 1570 this brings up the cas screen
set default key and make sure key emu is on
exit out to S*y Sp***s 1 and let it update

Cheers for the reply Smoggy.

However ive got the clone working now, found lots of duplicate channels so deleted all then rescanned - Sorted.

Now for the genuine one!

Well there you go - the genuine one works now that ive turned EMU on.
Just checked the Clone - EMU is off but still works! Have now turned it on just to be sure.

How come one works without EMU & what is EMU?

Cheers again Smoggy

the way I see it is the emu (emulation) simulates the way the cable company's firmware works to descramble the codes
when it is enabled it locks on to a channel and this helps it to calculate the codes quicker
