    I want to buy a starview 3 box from ebay and it all sounds good with everything that comes with it as you would know and I just wanted to know if you need a v*rgin m*dia line to run a starview box or if it is as easy as plug it in and put the codes and in and thats it your watching good tv.

    Thanks
