Here is the answer straight and to the point. SV 1000 is dead and gone for now. It is not certain that Sonicview will continue to provide support for this model since all channels have converted to N3. This means a different type of encryption is being used and the coders are working on coming up with fixes. The only boxes working for Sonicview or the 360 and 8000 series with the ****, An I hub is linked to your computer and is a card sahring format. Noone knows how long it will take to get a new bin to work the way it used to. The previous encryption was called N2 and as previously mentioned is now N3. Does this spell it out for you? The suggestion to read was so that you can educate yourself and answer your own questions with the smae questions that have been answered for otheres. You are probably not the first and most certainly will not be the last to ask this question. Do however take some time to educate yourself, it helps everyone by not repeating answers again and again.
