    All they're doing is flashing the box with a freely available version of firmware. It takes under a minute. This is for the super box USB. Older starviews are useless at the moment. No fix on the horizon.

    Just after stumbling across this thread now.
    I have one of the original The Box boxes. Naturally it hasn't worked in months 'cos of the encryption.
    Question is: is there a model out right now for which there's a flash fix i.e. allowing me to get all the NT Hell channels, in Dublin ?
    Is it the Starview 4 box with the USB port ? If so, how do I install the flash update from the USB - is there a menu or something that pops up when you stick in a USB key ?

    I bought my original one from iwantabox.com so can I get one that will work with this latest flash upgrade from here ? Anybody who can vouch for a working box as of today, please let me know. Feckin' Premiership is almost upon us and I'm gonna go cold turkey if I don't get to see live footie...

    Cheers all
