The box starview3 super

Hi all, i just purchased the starview3 and it is up and running perfectly although i do have a couple of queries i hope someone out there could help me with, first of all, is it ok to have my v*rg*n disconnect altogether? because the starview works of just the cable.
Also, does anyone have the sky ppv channels, sky1 and sky sprt news or r these not shown because v*rgn dont broadcast them channels anyway?

 

Unfortunatley the answer to both your questions is No !!
You need a basic sub from your providor and You dont get sly in the UK

 

Thanx for the reply des, so do i need like a splitter to have both boxes connected or can i connect them together via scart? Sorry if im sounding stupid, its just that im new to it all!

 

Hi Langie, in your original post you only asked about getting the channels, so what is it you would like to do? do you have 2 boxes and you want to run these to different rooms or what? Let me know And i will do my best to advise you!

 

hi des,i dont have a sub with vm, ive been lucky in that last august i tried a line straight into tv an received bbc itv etc so i bort a starview and to this very day everything good.happy days.

 

Fair play to you, you must have somehow by passed the system Happy Days

 

thing is des,my internet sub is coming to an end wi tis***i and bt line also,im going to get a sub with vm (phone and internet) cos it works out cheaper, i want to know will i be able to still use my box?

 

I am not sure to be honest, but if you are getting a sub for the phone and internet with Vi**in i am sure they will see that you have the TV working from them as well.. Look even if you are sussed , didnt you get away with it for long enough!!!LOl
all good thing come to an end!!!

 

im gonna disconnect the box before they come, let em set it all up, then i'll split the line and reconnect the box,

 

Good thinking Batman!!!

 

obviously, but you dont know if it will still work?

 

As I said I am not familiar with your type of set up, you will just have to wait and hope/see!!!

 

thanks for your des keep it up.

 

If you are getting Virgin Media broadband via cable, then it will definantely work for you, no problems, you can even put a splitter from the modem box (Point Of entry) and run it from there. Just don't let the lazy buggers put a splitter on your TV feed, insist that they run you a seperate cable and box on wall.
