Problem installing Kryptview via N*l/C*orus??

well if its working there he must be on a different cable system

ie MMDS aerial on his roof if so it wont

 

He did say to me that it was via aerial alright.

So it def wont work?

Strange how the old box worked and the kryptview wont?

If i plug out my cable going to the kryptview box and go to scan for new channels, i get the same stuff coming up on my screen as i do in my friends house with his cable plugged in?

Does that mean he might have a weak signal in his house?
I am using a spliter box in my attic but i do have a booster installed aswell.

if he is on chorus that wont work
they dont work on mmds chorus as they are dvb-c boxes not dvb-t

 

can you check the underside of his box is it a sagam one ??

look for the following ITD 60 on the label ??

 

Yeah i know that fergus, but he said they are both ntl, and he said he had 'The Box' so sounds more like ntl mmds than chorus.

Froshty, when you set up 'The Box' for him, did it work in your house?

 

well if he gets the name of the providers box and the info from under it then we will know like the magic roundabout this one

 

I looked at his orignal N*L box before i left yesterday and im sure it said sagam on the front of it where teh lcd display is.

 

lol, does his 'The Box' say The Box or The Box T on it?

 

ok if its sagam it will be small gray box you must be on chorus get the details from underside of it

look for ITD60 on the lable

 

No id have to rescan the box at my house again to get the channels.

 

no reply to the last time asked

 

Ya its a small grey box alright,

I wont be up in his house untill later this afternoon,

So if it says ITD60 does that mean bad new for him?

 

yes mate no box unless he gets the digivox T for his aerial as that box will not work in his house

 

Thats 99% the problem so,

They run on a different system than what he was using with his old box so.

What are the didivox t's like??

 

they are a terrestrial box for people that have aerials on the roof at the present time there has been no change in the system on them yet !!!

 

So what would the digivox give him that his Starview isn't? I didn't think the digivox would get him any extra channels over The Box T?

And did Chor*s change to N2? Maybe he just needs to do a rescan on his Starview?

 

Cool ill mention that to him so.

 

it wont but as he has said his system has changed so maybe he was using a starview dvb-c box before change to dvb-t box you know as much as i do about this

 

It's just a bit confusing, i've never heard of them changing areas from dvb-c to dvb-t before.

And if he still has other channels working on his starview sounds like he might need to update the firmware, surely if they had changed systems he would be getting no channels at all?

froshty, exactly what channels is he getting, when did this start, and when is the last time he flashed his The Box?
