can someone tell me why first generation starview boxes are nearly identical to cloned first generation starview boxes very hard to tell the difference my first generation starview box has 13x7 vents on the lid so is this a real box could it still be fake my remote control is fake is ther any other way to tell dont want to download firmware and fry the box im not sure what to do can someone help me please thanks
Clones are easier to sell since they look basically identical to the real thing. Think of a fake pringle sweater when put alongside a genuine one ... would you be able to tell the difference? The only real things that give away a clone from a genuine box from the outside are the vents on the top of it and the rear layout of all the sockets. Genuine or clone ??? Count the vents on top First Generation (Genuine) = 13 x 7 vents Genuine Starview = 25 x 7 vents Clone Staarview = 18 x 7 vents
the scart is on the left of the box, the mains lead is on the right in al the photos of cloned boxes that tells me my first generation box is fake what do you think thanks for your reply real or fake
As you say, your box has 13x7 vents ... To my knowledge no clone boxes has the same amount of vents. To sum up, you have a genuine first generation box but a fake remote control (probably a replacement) ... as long as it works, don't worry about it >)
just recently purchased the box super and it has 20x7 vents- cannot get the software to load. i have done a lot of box super for mates in work all had 25x7 vents. this batch came from s-- and c---- as did the last ones. can i load these with different software or are these also clones.
got version 7.05e installed but after turning on emu and waiting for update i had to go to nagravision and put in codes. does this mean it will not auto update in future. what other firmware is there.
