Hi There,

I am very new to this so bear with me! I have one of the systems labeled up as 'The Box' aka Starview 2 (I think!) and I have a few questions.

1. The current software version is: 5.51e_E // Boor ver: 7.0 // 9th July 2007

Is there a better software version/Firmware that I should be using? If so how do I do this without losing all the channels I currenlty have access to...

2. I want to rename all my channels and put them in the proper order. Is there a way to do this without renaming and moving every channel on its on?

3. The EPG seems to be a bit poor on updating itself... Any ideas?

Thanks alot all!

I don't think you have a Starview, there isn't any 5.51 software for any of the Starview range.

Thanks for the reply. Is 'The Box' STB also known as anything else?

No,
Take a look on the popular auction site for Starview / Pics or Google for it

Does yours say TheBox in Big letters on the front?
Well it looks like you have a Starview (The Box) (Starview 2 = Same) but not with that software you mentioned inside it, take a look here in TheBox Folder to find latest software and read in Starview folders about how to load it.

Yep mate it does in the top left hand corner.

I have been looking at those latest software files. Which is the best (newest) one for a London, UK based person?

Cheers for that, updated the S/W and the EPG is working alot better.

Just finishing sorting out all the channels... into a decent order!

One thing tho, I was watching Wrestlemania and after about 11 minutes it got scrambled :-(

Strange, all the new firmware is AU (Auto Updating)so can't help you with that one. Read some of the other posts onsite, others have probs with Wrestlmania
