MMDS Set-up Complete Beginner

You need a box with a dvb-t tuner for chorus mmds.

 

The new box has a dual tuner

 

The question was about a starview 2 box.

 

So only the forthcoming Starview box will be suitable ?
The Starview 2 is only compatible with Chorus cable I take it so.

 

Well I do apologise I am new to Starview as you can see Only joking I answer so many queries sometimes it leads to confusion thank you very much for correcting me.

 

Fano apologies for the earlier misleading answer. Yes it is comptabile with true cable on C*****. The MMDS version of this box will be out in five weeks, which will have a DVB-T tuner.

 

No bother ScOuser.Its all clear now.

 

uses the same image...

 

Any idea of price ?

 

AFAIK its going to be the same price as "The Box"(cable)

 

Quick question about these starview2 boxes.
Will they need codes constantly like the original starview.
I have lots of friends who have them and need codes every couple of days.
Are the starview 2 and dreambox 500t the only boxes that will work on Chorus MMDS?
Cheers.

 

You need a device with dvb-t tuner for chorus mmds.
Dream 500-t, dream 600 with dvb-t tuner, dream 7025 with dvb-t tuner or dvb-t usb stick with bda drivers.
The anounced starview for dvb-t nobody ever saw till yet.

 

I hope someone can help me , in some areas of dublin N@l use mmds , there is a small black box which looks like a power supply attached to the incoming cable from the mmds aerial inside the house and then to the decoder ie it it has aerial in and tv out , this box has to be plugged into the mains , can anybody tell me if this is just a power supply or is it the downconverter , i looking to source one on the net are they available and if so where might i get one .

Thanks

 

The black box is the power inserter for the downconverter at the aerial.
The device should have 12v to 18v 200ma.

 

thanks so much , do you know where i can buy one of these. Thanks

 

I'm in the same boat gracem, trying to get one also. came accross this one, bit expensive when P&P is included.

The one that Maplin sell is only rated @ 100mA so no good

You need an additional Schuko to UK plug adapter for the psu.

I was recently informed that Chorus no longer collect or disconnect any equipment from cancelled accounts.
Anyone know if this is correct ?
