    hello, me again.

    Just wondering - Can the providers box be linked with the starview so that both are receiving the signal? It would be good to see what is coming on the tv without having to search through the tv magazines or internet.
    Cheers

    They can be linked but are separate entities regarding EPG output. The EPG on both boxes are different either way.

    To improve the EPG on your Starview, (I remember you have a clone). Go to user settings and set the time to GMT +1. This will improve it slightly. Sorry but the EPG is notoriously bad on the Starview.

    If you have a Telepest box and a Starview just use a splitter between the two boxes.

    Telepest boxes use talkback, but the Starview does not, (for obvious reasons).
