Update Epg On Openbox V8s Scrambled
- Can anyone help.OPenbox v8s time is correct but EPG is one hour ahead regardless of changing from summer to winter time. This is not the forum for you with regards the v8. An absolute garbage receiver. Invest in an enigma2 receiver. Check out WoS for a great selection of satellite boxes.

Hi, Had a V8S for about 8 months with no problems at all. I use a 1TB powered Hard drive for recording and Timeshift,also had no problems.until last week.Went to update XMLTV Epg and upon pressing red update button all I get is 'Channel Download Failed' message. Have tried re-formatting Hard drive,tried Ex-Fat and NTFS, both fail. Tried router reset. Tried different channel list from AJ's,Same problem. Tried to updgrade by USB latest firmware from Skybox.CC and that says the 'Upgrade file is mismatch' although it it titled v6v8cmt.abs which should be the correct file. Getting a bit p.ssed off now.Anyone got any ideas as no EPG is driving me mental????:-D.

Openbox V8s Firmware
Hi guys, is there a way of getting 7 days EPG working plus make it autoupdate as well on an OpenBox V8S please? I have googled it and am getting very confused so I thought I'll post and ask the experts here. Anything little or big information on how to get it will be greatly appreciated.Thanks again guys.You will first need to make sure that you have latest firmware update for the box. You can get it from hereThen you will need to go in to the menu and select EPG and time settings and press the red button to update the EPG. I have done the update, however some channels show the 7 day epg guide, whilst others show 'no information'.
I have switched off the box but still having this issue. I take it the USB drive needs to be plugged in at all times for the epg to work correctly.Any idea what I need to do in order to get this to work correctly.ThanksThis a known fault with some channel not showing the information but will start to show after 24 hours. You will need to keep the USB drive plugged in at all times for the EPG to work. This a known fault with some channel not showing the information but will start to show after 24 hours.

The channels were showing the correct info via the 7 day EPG however when switching the box into standby mode, the EPG started to update as 'epg' was displayed on the box. After the update completed some channels were again showing 'no information' I guess will have to live with this issue until this can be resolved.Regards.
