  • How to fix corrupted bootloader.


    1. download "update" file from download link. http://linuxsat-support.com/showthread.php?t=81174
    2. add "update" into usb memory pen.
    3. attach usb to mars usb port.
    4 switch off receiver's power from back button.
    5. switch on power while pressing and hold menu button from box front panel .
    6. after few seconds you can see software updating message on tv screen.
    7. release menu button and waiting till box reboot automatically.
    8. Done.


    Note: don't unzip "update" otherwise software is not useable.

  • Many thanks Tonny for the info but I have tried the above method few times with different update, even do a factory reset of the box but the message still coming up saying unfortunately DTVplayer has stopped
