Mine is and has been playing up for over a week now - it seems most of the channels have gone out of tune except the terrestrial channels and a handful of odd cable channels.
Have you managed to find out what the problem is yet and if it is going to be resolved?
I have a feeling they've begun decommissioning the analogue service. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts.
yep, i have a SA box, had it for almost 2 years, iam with telewest as well, and a few days ago all the main channles have alos gone!!! any way of cracking this.????
I uderstand that they have turned off all the boxes with "extra channels" and have no plans to bring it back. Anyone got any info on reflashing the eprom??
If you're box is permanently chipped I think you've got problems.
I'm no expert on this but rather than have my box permanently chipped I opted for a crocodile clipped device which fits over the chip and knocks it out temporarily, thus allowing all the channels to show.
After a month or so the box resets and goes pink at which point I have to repeat the process. I believe it will be at this point that I'll be able to retrieve the channels.
The channels are definitely still there, as if I re-cook the chip at the monent the lost channels briefly re-appear for a few seconds before settling back to their f**ked up state.
