    i take it your in Ireland?

    Factory reset the box firstly from the menu, once done

    go here
    http://www.4shared.com/dir/3042613/f6e3421c/sharing.html

    and digivox section then to Digivox XL and latest firmware and download

    DigivoxXLUSB_1.06_090818.BIN onto your desktop.

    Insert a USB pen or drive onto the PC and drag this over onto it, When flashing, do not remove or stop the flash until such time the box reboots and starts, once you can get into the menu, factory reset again and then install the chans,

    Are you selecting the correct provider from the installation list? You on true cable dub? Are you putting the pipe cable into the correct input on the back of the box?

    Not my work, thanks to the Author,

    To load the files just drag them on to a memory stick and then put the memory stick in the USB port
    at the back of the receiver. Then press the menu button on the remote there you will see USB
    at the bottom of the screen. Just highlight USB with the remote then you will see the
    (Digivox V1.06 USB Bin file) appear on the screen. Highlight the Digivox V1.06 USB Bin File with the
    remote and press th ok button then you will see the file start loading in to the Box.Do not touch the remote or the box for at least
    30 seconds after the box has rebooted other wise you will end up with a dead box displaying 8882 on the display there is no way to
    recover this box after this happens you will have to send back to the supplier

    After you have uploaded the software from your memory stick,


    • Plug the box in to the TV using the usual scart lead.

    • Turn on the box, press menu and go to installation,

    • Select correct provider i.e. N**, C/W or TW ch***s

    • Then automatic scan

    • Once the channels are found, exit back to the blank screen

    • Press menu System Info press ok then Key in 1004, this takes you to a secret menu,

    . Set Default Key

    • Go down to Key CODE and turn it on.

    • Now exit and wait for it to store all the data.

    • That’s it, have fun

    Your scanning it wrong or missing a step, as when you select installation, you have to select the provider as stated above as your next step and then auto scan

    1.04 is older firmware, 1.06 is the last one which will give you all chans bar the sport n mov, there is something not right here as you should be getting the option to choose the provider beofre scanning,

    when you auto scan are you getting the option to choose then?

    try it with 1.04 or 1.05 and see if it give you access to the provider menu and if does, scan for chans as above, then flash 1.06 over it,

    They only thing I can think off is the box is goosed
