Thinking about buying a d box 2

Yeh, Okay thanks

 

Has it arrived yet...whats the verdict?

 

Just had e-mail from seller, container cleared customs, into them tomorrow, dispatched Friday, so should be within 3 days then, will keep you all informed.

 

i got one 2 weeks ago and only got certain channels would be interested in any software hints have e-mailed seller for support discs but wont hold my breath, hope someone can give me a clue on fix

 

Hi t80nyg

What sort did you buy?.

 

hey bemused has it arrived yet?

im going to see some one who has eurovox set up see if its anygood.

anyway let us know you thoughts on the starview when you get it.

 

Will do,

Phoned him today and has been working all weekend to install software before sending out tonight, fingers crossed should be soon, been told they run perfect without any of the problems of the other boxes.

 

hi bemused it was the starview, have had a couple of mates who are more techy than melook at it, they say the software is very good but cant work out why its not working hopeing to flash a image on to it if i can get some pointers of what to use, keep me posted on how you get on

 

No Problem, if mine works ok will send you copy of my software

 

that would be a great xmas present, cheers

 

Hi everyone first post, my mrs has had a starview box for about a month now so if you have any questions feel free to ask and i will do my best to answer.I am not that tech minded but at least i can tell you about pic quality how stable it is ect.All so are there any dbox2 owners out there?

 

I think you'll find there's LOTS of Dbox 2 owners out here judging by the posts

 

Hey focous

Why dont you give us short review about the starview box and what you make of it?

that would be a great start.

cheers

 

well hear goes nothing it came with an f connector as it dose not use a screw thread like some other boxes.It also came with a free cable to connect to the pc (i think some come with preloaded software)and a cd.Belive me when i say if i can do it anyone can as for the box it is small, looks good, picture quality is good the channel change is fast.So far as i write there has been no freezing,on the back there to scart sockets a spidf i think it`s called and rca leads not bad me thinks.The power lead comes with a 2 pin plug either get a shaver plug or do what i did and chop it off for a three pin.You can delete and change the channels around,it also comes with a timer.But(and there`s always a but) i think the epg is slow to say the least, while in epg if you press ok you will get a list of what ever is on the channel you are looking at.That at least is better,over all it dose what it says on the tin if like me you want a good epg then maybe you should check out some of the other boxes but as someone said you car`nt have everything hope this helps someone

 

when i am watching the channels some of them come up as scrambled is it the same your side or is every channel there, the ones that are not coming on have a $ (dollar) on the menu. i am hoping it is something on the set up menu that i have missed. i just plugged it in and went to set up and let it do the rest, please help as it is starting to get on my nerves

 

dose it say scrambled or bad channel?

 

yes thats what it tells meon half the channels

 

hey Focous

Cheers for that, it sounds good.

Do you get all the channels?
