Waiting for code update Arnet A700C

All was working ok since the last fix a couple of years ago.
I'm now getting that old chestnut Waiting for code update on sky movies yet surprisingly sky sports are ok.
Have done a factory reset & new search. I preverious used my local area Lewisham, but this has been removed from the list, so I used Bromey. Picked up all the TV channels ok but the movies still wont update.
Will there be a fix for this?

 

No your area is going/gone to N3 so you will need a new box, since you have a Kryptview 700 just get the new Kryptview 780, you will also need to connect this box to your broadband to get the channels.

 

Hi Tdub12dave, thank you for your prompt reply.
Obviously if I need a new box I should buy the best possible.
Is there a box on the market yet that is capable of receiving High Definition & PPV?

Also, you say the new box will need to connect to my broadband to get the channels.
Are you just refering to downloading the firmware? or will the new box require to be permanently connected via my internet connection to get the channels?

Thanks

 

the Starview Combo, which is a cable and sat box can get HD chans, but, the cable side of it is limited to one years access and thats it, new box if you want to keep the cable side running,

For a cable box, go for the A780 Kryptview, working fine in the UK, no issues

The box needs to connected all the time to the internet for the magic to work, this box will get PPV, but not HD content

 

Thanks Mickah,

Umm, Now I need to decide:
Do I go for the Starview Combo to get HD & PPV and buy a new box every year? (as I need to keep the cable running because I can't have a satalite dish on my flat)

Or do I go for the Kryptview A780 get PPV but no HD but only for a limited period until the switchover to HD?

Tough one!

What would you suggest?

 

even when they go Hd they will still have to have sd as well as not everyperson will have a HD box the A780 is the best option if you dont have sat

 

e45,
Thank you for your advice mate,
Before I ditch my A700 for an A780.
Am I right that The A780 can fully cope with N3 & that it also gets PPV?

 

what ever you had on your other box you will get the same as long as you have a BB connection as well to the box

 

I think it best to wait a few months to see what happens before deciding which box to buy.
Take a look at: http://www.articlesbase.com/gadgets-and-gizmos-articles/nagravision-3-fix-927130.html
Very interesting.

 

mmmm, thats 2009 mate, its safe to say that N3 is here to stay, considering its been on sat for about 4 years approx, so ya been waiting a long long while

 

Also if you get the krypt a780, You will have to buy a new krypt if/when they do go HD!

 

Well I made up my mind, High deination for one year than get another new box.
My Starview HD Combo arrived this morning.
Thanks for your advice to use the Carling firmware, however I have also seen recommendations on another forum to use Grooverider firmware.
Which of the two firmare would you recommend? and where do I find the latest version?
Thanks

 

if you have the carling on it that s the latest or you will find the latest on the signiture on this and any of my posts

Groovrider is the old firnmware

 

got to love it
3 weeks later and its at his front door, lol
anyway enjoy

 

pmsl here lol

 

Hello Hooter,

I will enjoy when I can get it up & running lol.
I've been trying to follow e45's Starview 6 tutorial all day long without a break, it's giving me quite a headache.

Has a Starview 7 HD combo been recently released? if so I must have one!
e45's photographs of the on screen display clearly shows USB under the heading Utilities, where as mine show USB under the heading Accessory, plus verious other deviations to confuse a newbe.

I've loaded Carling firmwhere, but not sure if I need to load the 'loader here' firmware as well, Do I?

I haven't got a clue how to set up and activate the internet connection, is there an idiots set up guide ?

Thanks in advance for your guidance.

 

do you have the sv combo or the sv.6
both use different firmware
no loader needed just file on a usb stick and in the box do the rest with remote

just get your lan cable from your router to the box

make sure you have right firmware for the right box!!!!

 

maker sure ya stick is formatted to fat32 first !! most important

 

Hi, Its the HD combo I have, no wonder I was getting confused trying to follow the starview 6 instructions. are there similar instructions for the HD Combo?
I'm formatting the stick to Fat32 now.
Fingers crossed.
Thanks for your help.
