4. Turn off your STB (using back switch, you need to turn off the unit before running USB LOADER or TFTPServ)

5. on your pc, open USB Loader or TFTPServ, open the necessary file you wanted (YOU NEED TO TURN OFF YOUR STB FROM THE BACK BEFORE OPEN USB LOADER)

6. Then turn on your stb (using back switch)

the download should take no more than 15 sec, but leave the STB alone untill it completely reboot itself.


Troubleshoot

Numerous users have report that they have problem when install the driver on their Laptop.

Symtom: in the middle of the driver installation, the laptop screen black out and doesn't response, give the blue screen of death or automatically restart and the driver installation never complete.

this is cause by the USB controller on the laptop, mostly Toshiba Model. Dell also

Solution: Instead of connect the PVR directly to the laptop, put an USB hub in between, so the configuration will be

Laptop USB PORT >>>> USB HUB >>> USB on Sonicview PVR.

Hope this help guys

Thanks Grasshopper. Will give it a shot once mines arrive. Can't wait!!!
