    hello all, i bought yesterday starview 3 box online. it is almost same as starview 2. but when it finishes searching channels, it doesn't accept any code like 1570 or 2004. Anybody have any idea wht is the code for that. i haven't recieved any instruction paper with that.

    Go to menu system information and tell us what API version is on your box

    Should be something like V4.00e_E

    what does it say on your one let us know

    Depends on what firmware is installed , some come with only FTA channel viewing and you might need to update it , You will get S*Y Sports if your provider suppies it ;)

    if you have a brown box out side all you need to do is drill out run a bit of cable to it and put a 2 way splitter in the brown box. you will also need a few other things but you should be able to get them all from maplin
