    if you have an ariel & not cable, then you need the st*rview PVR b0x or st*rview the b0x "T". The SV b0x is for cable only.

    Sorry to butt in , THE B0X-T is only for Chor*s MMDS in Ireland

    If you have N*L in the UK then the normal Starvi*w will work to get ALL channels

    If you have all the channels installed but only view some of them , Press menu on the remote , then 1570 , the last option is the EMY key , make sure it is ON , Exit back 3 times and start viewing channels :)

    You need an incoming cable from a provider inorder for a Starvi*w to work , it cant be used with a Sat System
