Ive noticed recently that my samsung is stuck on standby....have virgin fried my set top?? Starview still workes but i am worrying about using it because my samsumg will be nolonger sending a signal back. Any ideas?????

    I would but I did a automatic scan on my starview tonight and noticed a channel called virg=n fraud and on that channel was a message saying (something along the lines of) that I was recieving an illegal signal etc

    Thanks for reply...but I keep hearing that your normal ntl box sends a signal back (hence why I split my signal) I dont actualy care about my normal box being f++cked and would just use my starview....can i do this with my normal box in standby. I dont want a knock on the front door!!!

    honestly m8. they cant tell, it deosnot really matter if the samsung box dont work like u say, if u want it fixed then fone them...if not just leave it. i think it would have 2 b turned on 2 send the signal back though.
