    If you have an aerial/dish on the roof it is more than likely MMDS. If not and you have a cable direct into to your house it is true cable.

    The Starview will work with C***** true cable, but you will have to enter keys manually. The Starview 2 called "The Box", will work on C***** true cable and will pick up keys automatically.

    If you are on C***** MMDS there is a new Starview box coming out on the market in about a month or so that will work on C***** MMDS, as it will have a DVB-T tuner.

    i got the starview 2 'the box' and am havin problems finding any channels. i downloaded the latest software - if i go to system information it says API ver 4.50e_E Boot ver 7.0.
    after pressing 1570 nagravision is set and key EMU is ON.
    the i go to installation and select c****s and click automatic scan.
    the scan starts and TP1: failed, TP2: failed, TP3 failed and TP4 and all the way to TP 7 says failed and it results in 0 programs found.
    what am i doing wrong????

    I thought u said u have MMds
    'The box' wont work on mmds

    For True cable:

    do a factory reset. go in and autoscan again ( on ch**us)
    when it says *** channels found , exit out and go and change Emu to on. then exit back out and find a pay channel, then wait fot it to update !

    ah crap. rang up c***s and asked them was it cable or mmds and they said mmds even though there no aerial on the house. they must have 1 aerial for the estate and then plumbed all the houses from the 1 aerial. anyone know of a box that works for mmds???

    chor*s mmds works on tuner dvb-t (terrestrial)

    unfortunatly ur box is dvb-c (cable)

    u can get these , but u need cards and stuff, not worth the hassle
    Starview will be bringing out a box for this in a months time or so.
    I think u better sell your box m8 !
    pm me for more info....
