hi i was just wondering i have 4 tvs in the house and have them split up using two nt? boxes, but ntl are forcing me to go digital instead of analogue if i do will i b able to use a splitter with them and use the kryptview too
if you have subbed boxs in the house, then you are on digital, you can split the cable and use anyboxs you want.
sorry no i mean im definitely on analogue i dont have there boxes yet, i was told that if u do get them u can split them but u have to watch what the other person is watching st the same time , dammm it
fella told me today, from nthell that u have to have a sepearte box for each room that if u split them up the person who is watching one channel will have to watch same one
fella told me today, from nthell that u have to have a sepearte box for each room that if u split them up the person who is watching one channel will have to watch same one. faolteam thats only if you have 1 box and you have your splitters coming out of that box to each room, MICKAH is right once you have cable/splitter in your room put your box in it and watch what you want.
sory i phrased that wrong i only have one kryptview, but i have another area which feeds two and i aint got the kryptview so its just an analogue box they give u the one with fm tv on it and i split that to two rooms
so basically you have one cable port on the wall in your house a you put your own splitter to do 2 rooms!!yeh, well thats basically what n*l done for me except they have the splitters outside and ran the cable around the outside of house, drilled in each bedroom and put a port in each room,no diff than what you have done and i have 2 boxes, 1 in sitting room and swop other box between bed rooms for kids. im in a digital area but dont get digital of them still use analogue like yourself, unless you need 2 boxes just move it from room to room.
Have you got or had any digibox of any sort running in your house before? Are NTL putting in MMDS for you? Where are you located?
im in dublin southside i have always had analogue, i never had any digital box , except the starview im using the original FM TV box ntl gave us many years ago
I'd suggest borrowing a box from your neighbours and plugging it in and testing, but your line should work 100% with a digibox. Unless NTL are giving you MMDS you can still use all your standard TV points, If you are getting digital from them all they are giving you is a digibox
well then you have a digital feed coming in if you are using a SV box already, just split the pipe from the source to any room ya want and use what box you want,
i think im getting confused here i am getting analogue coming through when i use the box it becomes digital can i use my redundant ( starview box 2 ) sv box to make my analogue picture to digital with just the basic ntl programmes
if you have a SV box running or was running before, you have a digital feed coming in already, every house has it in Dub, its just your not paying for a digitalpack from your supplier, each house has analogue and digital coming in, in the dub or greater area on true cable. the older SV boxs are now redundant and wont work. you cant change analogue into digital with a box, your confusing the two. You need a kryptview, SV4, ITGATE, DREAM or DBOX if you can get one. read here for more info http://forums.afterdawn.com/t.cfm/f-59/only_boxs_working_in_ireland_and_some_tips-782583/
ok so but my qiestion again is what is the purpose of the box if u were to buy it and never download thats all
to view non encrypted chans, the firmware when loaded decrypts the pay chans, if you have a Starview 2, should you not know this already?
so can i use it to watch the like of rte 1 rte 2 utv etc that i have on analogue now to go digital thats all i want to know
