Hi guys, just a quick question. My a780 arrived today but didnt come with a remote control. I will call the supplier and get a new one but i was wondering if i can flash, scan for channels without it (using the front panel buttons). Also i have 2 starview remotes sitting in the cupboard. Since they are similar in set up etc, would they work in the meantime? Cheers in advance
The remotes are no good to you and no you dont need the remote to flash the box, following the instructions which can be found at the bottom of E45s posts on the forum
you will need the remote to scan for channels without it the box is no good get on to your supplier and inform him straight away
My supplier is sending me a replacement asap. What i was wondering is if these 'universal' remotes would work for the time being. I see that the starview one wont work on a kryptview model but would a universal one work considering they usually advertise that these remotes would work on almost anything Ps Ive flashed my box already and knew i didnt need the remote for that. That question was poorly worded in reflection
depends, but then you need the remote code for it and it may not work the full functions on the box either, may change the chan or work the volume, just hang on till ya get the remote
Ok mate, just choking the get the thing up and running. It looks so shiny and full of goodness ha ha. It was really to get the channels scanned etc then i could just change channel via the front panel if the remote only had partial compatibility
most of em are made for basic stuff like chan change, sound and pic quailty etc, ya be prob wasting yer time n money buying one as it may not work for you
