Hi I Have astarview 2 the box and iam having problems with the movie channels always breaking up and gose patchey just woundering if anyone could help me.Ilive in Galway Ireland.my box is geniune.thanks
API is 4.54e_E boot ver:7.0 .Is it true that ntl are trying to catch people with the starviews?Can you be caught.thaks for your help
Christ on a crutch not again, yes you can be caught be letting them into your house and showing them the box, other than that no, the box has no talk back feature on them. There is countless posts on the forum, mostly locked, but have a read of them - use the search bar
You should put API Version 4.50 on the box as it's the most stable with little or no break up of channels and don't pay any attention to the many rumours that are going around about N*L and the boxes
Thanks co19 and mickah for your help.Sorry to be a fool but how do put 4.50 verison on to the starview 2.Im new to all this.thanks very much for both your help.torres9.galway ireland
torres9 to do this you will need a null modem cable DB9F to DB9F. Null modem info http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?criteria=L71BT&DOY=2m6 If your pc does not have a serial port you will need a USB to serial port adapter to use in conjunction with the null modem cable. USB Adapter info http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?Modu...erial Adaptor These two cable links are only for reference as they can be purchased alot cheaper on fleabay. All firmware/loader can be found here http://eko.4shared.com/ You will need the GTromloader, (Starview Software Uploader), found in the Starview software folder of the link. Now select the firmware either ver 4.00 for a genuine Star***w 1 or version 4.50 for 'The Box' or if you have a clone box select version 257 FIXED all of which can be found in the 'firmware' folder. Also you should download the Starview PDF guide this will give you step by step instructions on how to do everything.This can be found in the Starview Documentation folder in the link. http://eko.4shared.com/ courtesy of co19

Hi co19,karljd and celtic71 just woundering what you think about the Eurovox Max.Just my friend is keen to one of them,he was told by a friend not to go near the starview 2 the box.I havnt had a problem with the box apart from the movies breaking up but after getting advice off you guys iam in the middle of sorting it just needing my bros help.What are the advangtes of the eoromax?I was reading in the fourom that people where woundering agood place to buy the boxes.Here is agood website www.cableboxshop.com.price included delivery.thanks torres9.
torres9 nothing wrong with the starview,but i prefer the eurovox much better epg, and with the new firmware widescreen option plus signal booster,altough there have been some problems with the eurovox which i think have been resolved now,as regards that site dont bother to expensive i'll send you a pm.
When did you become a senior Karl, congrats BTW I second the EV, but am in the process of giving the EV Ultra a runaround, I know its only a DM500 clone, but have heard some good reports on it and have just been givin one to "test" drive Have to flash it with DW2.0 and have a look
just happened overnight sc0ucer (jaysus people will think i no what i'm talking about now! lol)keep us informed with how you get on with the ultra bet you can't wait to give it a good going over.
LOL thats what people think about me Yep will do but will give it a few days to see what its like not a fond believer in first impressions
