    I've a question, How do you actually know there is not going to be a fix the box super? as all the threads said there was not going to be a fix for the box usb until surprise surprise it turned up on the 7th of June. it took a while i know but its here now. It was the same back at Christmas time with the starview 1 and the time before that too.
    Does anybody actually know or are we just throwing stories at one another? If there is not going to be a fix for the rest of the starviews so be it, but where is the proof?
    I spoke with skywonder a long time ago and asked "how long can this go on?" And they responded "Nobody knows".
    I think that can answer a lot of questions on these threads.
    Lets live and hope.

    Starview themselves done no fixes for the last time the boxes went down in December they only fixed the Sv4 super usb

    all of the other fixes where done by someone else that is no longer doing fixes for them

    the starview 4 usb is the newest starview on the market and is still being sold that is why it got a fix and the rest did not they do not make the starview super 3 or TheBox 2 or the Starview 1 so that is why there is no support for them

    I would love to meet this good samaritan.

    Sorry for the hi-jack but thought I'd save starting a new thread. Occasionally my starview box turns the audio descriptions for the visually impaired on and I've forgotton how to turn it off. I press audio and all that comes is is nar and eng and I can only select left, right or both

    Thanks

    Fair enough, but i don't believe they only issue a fix for the usb 4 because its there latest product. Microsoft, Autocad and i'm sure all other softwares provide support for at least 3 years of product. You cant just update your product and screw the rest of them. If thats what they do then i'm sure their not doing themselves any favours.

    if that is the case why did they bring out the starview 2 / 3 / 4 as the starview 1 box is still working after 6 yrs now you dont get any more channels on any of them they all do exactly the same thing all down to sales nothing else as soon as a new box is released support for the others fall by the way side thats just the way it is

    the only thing thats got faster about the SV is how quick the support dies away for them,

    well that is true but people only want to watch tv they not worried about all the other enchantments on them as you will still see people with the old starview

    and also when the starview 4 was not working and the other older models where apart from the movies and the sports what does that tell you newer is not always better as we have learned over the last 4 months
