All eurovox/starview and digivox boxes have been blocked from nagravision encrytped channels, this shows in different ways on different boxes. . Virgin has now switched to nagravision 3 encryption. All eurovox/starview boxes can now only receive SOME free to air programs. If you rescan, all the programs are picked up, but all the encrypted channels are blocked. There is no fix yet, and there will probably be NO fix for your box, or any box without an ethernet connection. Check afterdawn.com or techkings for more info
I have a eurovox pvr ex5000 box. The channels got scrambled about 2 weeks ago. Do you know the new codes that I need to put in, for the channels to unscramble?
if you have recived your virgin media card connect up box install new card when regeistered replace with eurovox box and rescan it worked in other areas
the eurovox was a CABLE receiver, you needed to connect it to a virgin cable supply..

Dont know if it helps or not but this is the method i used to set up the eurovox max when i first got it - it may work for you. EUROVOX MAX SETUP This is the method I use for setting up the eurovox max box but I have been told that it works for versions 1 and 2 as well
PLEASE NOTE : IF YOU ARE USING A SPLITTER IN YOUR SETUP THIS MUST B E REMOVED for the initial POWERSCAN as the box needs to scan from a pure signal- this will ensure all channels being found. – scanning throught a splitter can result in the loss of 50+ channels. Firstly before you start to scan the box you need to:-
PRESS MENU GO TO CONFIG GO TO CLEAR DATA – IF IT ASKSYOU FOR THE PIN PRESS 0000 SELECT – ERASE ALL CHANNELS Then it will ask you are you sure so press OK Then wait a few seconds then press EXIT and EXIT again
What you need to do now is a POWERSCAN. The following is a step by sep method of carrying it out!
Press the MENU button Go to INSTALLATION and arrow right to USER INSTALLATION Type in your pin (normally 0000) Press the YELLOW button for POWERSCAN and change the mode to FULL from Normal by arrowing right to reveal FULL Now press OK, this will begin the BRUTEFORCE POWERSCAN which can take up to 40 minutes,but it is guaranteed to find every single channel on the network in your area.
Once done the box will switch to a random channel to indicate it has finished ! You will now have around 240 or more channels (in some cases regions can receive up to 330 channels!) You now need to switch to a non free channel and let the box update the codes – this could take a minute or two, it will indicate on the screen “updating please wait” once finished all channels will now be unlocked. That’s it you’re all done … HOWEVER …. If you find that you get no channels at all there is a further adjustment you can make to ensure you get the 250 plus channels that your area box will be able to receive and again it’s quite simple to do!
First press MENU Then go to USER INSTALLATION Type in your pin (0000) Press YELLOW button to POWERSCAN Then change the mode to NORMAL Then arrow down to the SYMBOL RATE and if its on 6.952 then change it to 6.887 (or vice versa!!) Then press OK and it will carry out a scan like the powerscan of before. If after you have tried this and you still are channels short then keep the symbol rate at the new figure but adjust the scan to FULL and try again.
The Eurovox should be connected to your TV with the Virgin box tucked away in a cupboard somewhere!
A Eurovox is a cable receiver used instead of a Virgin or NTL box, usually to obtain access to unsubscribed channels.
What are you trying to do, perhaps I can assist with more information.
Good luck.
