Yes, you can. Use the USB recovery process. Look around the forum for instructions

Ed the "Main code" is the software.
Find the version you want or latest version from the download center.
Extract it from ".rar" and put it on your USB and then do upgrade main code.

Have you tried to downgrade software in the USB Upgrade with the setting All code?
If you have a user data base that is for the newer software, it may reject your down grade as that newer user data base is not compatible.

By doing an "all code" upgrade you will remove that user data base and if you do not have an older data base saved that you can reload, you will have to re enter all your sats and re scan.
The user data base includes the new menu options that were not in older version.

Do not let me put old firmwares. Friend, the receiver tells me that you have to put more recent software. Thank you

Have you tried doing a forced software reload.

With the flash.bin file on the usb stick, power the V8 on while repeat pressing the "Menu" button on the remote.
The unit should reload the software.

I have an older hardware version and have never seen the "Don't downgrade" message.

The picture you have posted is from the menu USB Upgrade.

That is not the method I am suggesting.

With the old software renamed "flash.bin" on the USB and in the V8.
While you power on the V8 repeat press the menu button on the remote.
You should see a message across the very top of your screen saying not to power off loading software.

This is the flash recovery method.

This is not accessed from the menu. It used to recover a "Bricked" unit.
