Starview 6 Futureproof ?

Reswob, I would be inclined to start from scratch again, reload the firmware, do the thing with the emulator, set the network to auto, and to use Istream.

 

thanks to all who helped out much appreaciated,ITS WORKING..for my ip address i had to type in the last 3 digits as something random like 340 and pressed apply and it auto selected an ip for me and it was sorted,thanks to all that helped

 

Wel done!, I did not have any of 'that' sort of problem but once it is working!!

 

Fair play mate glad you got it going.

 

yes thanks again folks.just to let you know watched tv on that box for two hours or more and only one freeze[the blink of an eye]thats all.when we had the tv menu up on screen you can still see the programme in the background as you scroll through this menu the picture does freeze a bit.thats about it everything else seems fine.

 

Interesting to see how that progresses after they have sold quite a few more. Cheers for letting us know how it's getting on. Maybe keep us up to date if there are any changes.

 

jesus that had my head wrecked mooley,there was two of us at that for a good nine hours.took it to a different house and it worked fine,but the funny thing was what we did to get it working we had tried before and it didint work.even his internet was acting up dureing the course of all this.

 

Worth it in the end though I bet mate. Glad it's sorted, enjoy.

 

the only one who came out the worst for all this was the mates dog,Im sure hes still licking his undercarriage right now..ha.ha..

 

lol

 

thanks all for going through that for everyone as I'm sure others will encounter same problems

 

now all we have to do is wait and see how long the server will hold up for as the more boxes sold the more glitching should be encountered i would say

 

great way to market a box, supplying a free card server connection. can't see that it is the maker of the box supplying the service so it must be the distributor. i figure that, as you point out e45, response times will definitely slow as the number of boxes on the network increase. another issue is how long the network will be available for at all before it gets closed down

 

the same can be said about CS on Sat, its a chance ya take I suppose with this sort of thing, I am sure they would have some sort of back up in place if that were to happen, but who knows........

 

mickah, thats very true. there are rumours flying that cs on sat will have its challenges soon. however it does seem that there are a lot of people out there working on solutions for sat as problems crop up. so it would seem that if any of these systems are alive by the end of the year it will be sat, and that is only because that is where most of the development work seems to take place. But, yes, there are no guarantees, other than taxes and death

 

Ya probably know already mate, but i just got mine up and running, not a bother, all chans there, so happy days for now...

 

Im really glad ya said for now as it will be an expensive brick if it does go lol

 

haha ah well nothing ventured, i got this one free mate,(sample) if ya know what i mean... so we'll see how it goes...

 

well you wont have to worry so but the people that dont get "samples" will if it does not do what it says on the packet lol

 

Do you know or are you even allowed post up here how it works mate, its working perfectly, but i aint got a clue how it is haha...
