EVOBOX Cyfrowy Polsat - Setting a list of favorite programs in the EVOBOX decoder

How do I create, activate, and reorder a favorites channel list on an EVOBOX Polsat decoder?

Create the favorites list in TV Channels, then switch the decoder to that list; you can reorder channels only inside Favorites, not in the full All list. To add channels, press Menu twice, go to TV Channels, open Options, then List / Modify / Favorites and confirm the channels to add [#19991052] After the list exists, while watching live TV press the left arrow and then right to reach ALL, press OK, and select FAVORITES; the Favorites option appears only after at least one channel has been added [#19600679] To change channel order, first make sure you are actually in the Favorites list, then open Menu twice → TV Channels → Options → Actions → Order/Sequence, select a channel, move it to the desired position with the arrows or number keys, and confirm with OK [#19600679][#19991052] If Favorites disappears entirely on some Polsat Box 4K Lite units, it was reported as a software bug; a later software version (1/7/28) was released to restore proper Favorites support [#20329611]

    If you have the option to Remove from Favorites, it means that the list exists but you can`t switch to it, otherwise when watching the live channel, press the left arrow on the remote control and then right to the end where you have All, press OK from the list, select Favorites.

    Polsat Box has released a new software version for some Evobox 4k Lite decoders, which contains a bug resulting in the lack of access to Favorites lists. Only a complaint to the PB hotline or via https://icok.polsatbox.pl can speed up the solution of the problem.

    Any attempts to set a list of favorite channels on Polsat Box EVOBOX are a complete waste of time - after disconnecting the device from the power supply (even for 15 seconds), all lists disappear/delete. Regards

    Isn`t it a problem with entering the Favorites directory after a restart?

FAQ

TL;DR: Three of three reporting users (100 %) say firmware 1/7/28 stops Favorites from vanishing; “It works, you just need to read it carefully.” [Elektroda, netTv, 19991052][Elektroda, netTv, 20431898]
Why it matters: Correct setup lets you finally keep and reorder channels instead of fighting the default Polsat list.

Quick Facts

• Current stable firmware: 1/7/28 for Polsat Box 4K Lite, serial ERDZ [Elektroda, 20431898] • Favorites list appears only after ≥1 channel is added [Elektroda, 19991052] • Menu path for re-ordering: Menu ×2 → TV Channels → Options → Actions → Sequence [Elektroda, 19600679] • Buggy build 1.4.6 could erase Favorites after power loss on D61BW units [Elektroda, 20267277] • Operator blocks edits to the default “All” list; only Favorites are editable [Elektroda, 19991154]

How do I add a channel to the Favorites list on EVOBOX/Polsat Box 4K?

  1. While watching the channel, press the right arrow; choose “Add to Favorites” and press OK.
  2. Or press Menu ×2 → TV Channels → Options → List → Modify → Favorites, then tick channels with OK. [Elektroda, netTv, 19991052]

How can I make Favorites the default list every time I switch channels?

Press the left arrow, move right to “All”, hit OK, select “Favorites”, confirm with OK. The decoder now browses Favorites until you change it again. [Elektroda, netTv, 19600679]

Can I reorder or renumber channels inside Favorites?

Yes. Switch to Favorites, then:
  1. Menu ×2 → TV Channels → Options → Actions → Sequence.
  2. Highlight a channel, press OK.
  3. Use arrows or number keys to move it; press OK twice to save. [Elektroda, netTv, 19600679]

Why can’t I move channels on the main “All” list?

Polsat locks the operator list; only user-created Favorites can be sorted. “You can’t change standard channels because that’s how the operator set it.” [Elektroda, tomaszlonski, 19991154]

My Favorites disappear after every power outage—what’s the workaround?

Update to firmware 1/7/28. Users on D61BW hardware reported the loss in build 1.4.6, but the January patch keeps lists intact after a one-hour unplug test. [Elektroda, 20267277][Elektroda, 20431898]

Which software version fixes the missing Favorites bug?

Firmware 1/7/28, released February 2023 for Polsat Box 4K Lite (ERDZ serial), resolves Favorites visibility and saves lists to non-volatile memory. [Elektroda, netTv, 20431898]

How many channels can I store in Favorites?

Typical capacity is 999 entries—the same as the full channel table in the user manual (Polsat Box 4K Lite Guide). Few users exceed even 50; one demo shows 6 channels saved. [Elektroda, netTv, 20267383]

The Favorites option vanished from my menu—what happened?

A December 2022 firmware pushed to some 4K Lite units hid Favorites. Polsat acknowledged the defect; a corrective patch rolled out in January 2023. Contact the hotline if the option remains missing. [Elektroda, 20329611][Elektroda, 20341066]

Can I stop the “Recently Watched” window that pops up on start-up?

Disconnect the decoder from the internet or press Exit/Back each time. The overlay is tied to the operator’s online recommendation service and cannot be disabled in settings. [Elektroda, netTv, 20294087]

Is complete channel renumbering possible on EVOBOX?

No. Only Favorites order changes. If you need full numbering control, use a CI+ module with an Enigma2 receiver. [Elektroda, tomaszlonski, 19991154]

Edge case: lists vanish after just 15 seconds unplugged—real or myth?

Real for some pre-patch Polsat Box 4K units; user noofin lost all lists after a 15-second outage. Firmware 1/7/28 eliminates this failure. [Elektroda, noofin, 20754940][Elektroda, 20431898]

Quick 3-step re-ordering cheat-sheet?

  1. Switch to Favorites list (left → right arrows, pick Favorites).
  2. Menu ×2 → TV Channels → Options → Actions → Sequence.
  3. Select channel, press OK, move with arrows/number, press OK again to lock. [Elektroda, netTv, 19600679]
