for republic of ireland only..

Please Note for those people living in the Irish Republic (ONLY).
When buying any New TVs here , make sure these Television have Mpeg 4 Tuner in them as most sets sold here have Freeview Tuners on older sets up to 3 years olds, and shops are trying to sell them off cheap,They will not work here for the liked of RTE-ONE/RTE-TWO/TV3/TG4/as they are now on Mpeg4 only. Freeview are only for the UK.Market only.
(DTT)is comming to Ireland very soon & is currently undergoing a Transition from Analogue to Digital on Test here .SO Check that the TV is Irish Digital Mpeg4 Ready.
Led/TVs Backlights are the way to go for now Better picture on them over the just Lcd sets. Note look up my other threads i done a week or so on NEW STUFF on the market & and a thread on the new Cell TVs. Maybe the way to go.& if u like new 3D Techology TVs then Samsung have a few new sets on the market to look at.40inc Led selling under €2,000 here.
ok that all for now.

 

Thanks for the updated information!!

 

ok SG8 .

 

Yes, cable channels NTL/UPC.

Satelite will NOT work on Starview 6, it is a cable box for the Irish situation!

Maybe you should read a few threads about them before claiming that they are not working ??

Edit: Maybe you can just edit your post (again) to correct your misinformation ??

 

Thanks for editing your post, but again you are only misinforming people (if they can even make out what you are trying to say).
You obviously don't know how the Starview6 works so I think you ought to just stop talking about it.

 

OK SG8 when u buy a Starview 6 ,Do u have to do anything b4 u hook itup to cable N~L
what about software for it or is it just plug & go like the other Starview boxes.

 

Plug and go ? like other Starview boxes ?? All STARVIEW Boxes needed software for them before they would work, you may have bought one from someone who had already put the software on it but if it worked it was not using the original software supplied with the box.

 

If you keep editing the errors out of your posts you will soon end up with nothing in them at all !!

If you are going to post stuff at least check that it is correct before posting it and if you dont know what you are talking about, don't post at all as it is only confusing people.

 

canon there is a link to the thread starview 6 future proof in my signature area ,there is a good discussion on the box there with a lot of usefull info . thanks for your above post and your other very usefull posts .

 

Thanks SG8 on that, to late for me now as i got a upc box from them & have to hold it for a year under contract. I taught all boxes were down here in Ireland & nagra3 was not hacked at all,so these boxes have got around the problem, good to know. so these boxes have been working since they came out on the market here. I am going off line now till later,bye SG8

 

Never too late!!

 

Thanks very much on that piopat,will do look up your threads info starview 6 future proof. when i come back on line later.

 

Does no harm to read a few posts instead of just writing a few!! lol

 

Thanks for that sg8> I was only going to print about the tv's when buying to make sure
they are for irish stations Mpeg 4 ready.How do u find the box,did u have any problems with it at all.

All is explained here mate http://forums.afterdawn.com/t.cfm/f-59/starview_6_working-838937/

 

sg8 no offence mate but maybe you were a bit harsh i see your point 100% and you are correct,and i fully understand . but canon who is very knowledgable in his field may have made an error on a topic he is not fully aware of, but he still commands respect for what he knows. and he posts all that he learns on here (which helps a lot of people ) maybe instead of being so critical and focused on an error (and i accept you are 100% correct) you might say well done for the work he has put in on his posts instead of putting him down or even maybe making him go to another forum . and of course i must say that sg8 is an excellent ambbassador for the afterdawn forum and has great knowledge as has canon/e45/mickah/fintann /fergus/celtic /and scouser etc. and long may this forum continue with such great support ,i thank you guys .

 

Yeah agree fully. Canon brings a great deal of knowledge on Tv's to this forum so shouldn't be repeatedly critisized for one error.
Can't leave yourself out of that list of top members piopat. I love you as do we all. But me especially. Alright that's enough bromance for the year.
