If ppv stops working, this could indicate the credit stored in the XC chip had been used up. You need to let CC hit the box and new credit number might be added.
Even if you erased the PPV history you might still get charged for the last ppv order. That is what was tested before. Not sure if it is still the case.

update the firmware does not work! just update the guide and on demand but same error appear after the update! cause does not update the firmware or the channel map. its cofirm to make the channels vieable again we need the nvram updated with the new map of channels.

NOT SO. When you let box take Update NVRAM gets updated as well with new channel Lineup. Your Problem is NOT Outdated NVRAM, Its a Video key Problem........

You Write back Original Box Backup WITHOUT MODDING FIRMWARE. Connect to COAX FEED and let it take Update. Takes about 30 Minutes or so to fully compleate Update. The box will also restart itself in the process so DON'T PANIC. LOL
