    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?

    Cheers

    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

    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
