    It depends, some people are recommending a linux based box because they reckon they are most likely to be upgradeable in the future, they are going to be more complicated and more expensive, if you just want something basic get another starview or replay lite. You can only get the channels provided by your service provider anyway.

    It's really a matter of personal taste.

    It might just be something simple wrong with your starview, have you checked it? Read through the starview thread, might just be a capacitor or something.

    Thats exactly what the OP's problem is Eva ;) 50p to fix it versus a new box.

    No a lot go wrong with them :) You were exact with your diagnosis in this case. By the look of the OP's symptoms that should be the case.

    Sounds like an like a doctor/patient discussion LOL. Watching too much T.V. at the moment :)
