Do you mean a limited channel list or some channels won't decrypt? One of these situations will get an answer, one will not.

Seems like you just need to update your channel list, you can get this from ajsat I think

on the chance that you mean the 7 day epg, that is stored on usb, google the skybox homepage, there's new firmware to repair
the issue involving loss/lack of epg updating

Thanks for replying, I lost the s-- movie channels , the usb memory sd was then completely erased , put usb in box , channels kaput. is there some hardware that was already on the usb when I got the box ?

sounds somewhat iffy

The channel data is not stored on the USB stick. The USB stick s only used to transfer it to the receiver. The Sky movies chanenls moved satellite last week. This is why they do not work. As above, downlaod latest chanenl list and transfer to your receiver.

you lost the mentioned channels cos of transponder changes, update the channel list as advised in a previous post

[pete777]

Hi,lost all the s-y channels ie movies, sport etc and left with normal tv channels and a few others .

[abu baniaz]

What do you mean by "Normal"? Are you meaning to sat you can view the free chanenls without a problem?

[johnhoe]

Try this link. You can blind scan and get the channels back.

Have you done as advised and updated your channel list ?

[duoduo]

Jesus man, just update your channel list!! I told you this several posts back.. If you don't know how to do it, download latest channel list and then go to YouTube and watch a video, there is loads on there.
