If you are on MMDS you will have a black box beside the TV plugged into a socket as said earlier. Can you get RTE1?

This is my set up: I have a wire coming from the wall into the back of my n*l DVR box, ordinarily that is connected straight to my tv but I have the Starview box in between those two now. No black box?

Just replace the cable going into the DVR into the cable in socket on the back of the SV4. What makes you say you are on MMDS, do you have a mesh type dish/aerial on your roof?

I will ask again do you get RTE1 :)

Yeah have the aerial on the roof, its a new house and only MMDS available here. I'll tell you again (lol!) the RTE's aren't coming in. They're not on the list of channels. Sometimes they come in, sometimes they don't, that's been the way for months before the boxes finished.

Thanks for all your help. I'm going to have to leave it for tonight, passed my bed time an' all that! I'll give it another go tommorow. Thanks again ;-)

No problem. All I can say is recheck all your cabling as everything else you have done is spot on ;)

If you cannot get RTE its a cabling problem. But you should have a powerinsertor, it may be elsewhere in the house take a look you will find it. Also check for any splitters as the may be faulty or disconnected.

Goodnight :)

There is another patch to that out since, you will find it in Eamos called The Box Super USB BETA. Flash with that and missing channels will come back.

I would however recommend a factory reset and rescan after any update. Remember to put your keycode back on.

Just went to check it RTE is coming in and it's not actually on the list of channels. We lost the RTEs months ago when all the other channels were working fine, were never too bothered cos it was only RTE!
you shouldn't have any problems eiregal im in waterford on n*l and SV4 and its working perfectly..

Obviously Starview only interested in their new customers and to sell new boxes as no fix for the thousands who bought their boxes in good faith and are now left in the lurch.

I would advise peeps NOT to buy Starview again as there after sales service is disgraceful.Before anyone suggests we got a good run out of them note that they said they would support all boxes.
We should report them to the E.U. as under current legislation all cable boxes are covered by a 2 year guarantee from the maker to be of good quality and to be of proper use for the amount spent.Legal issues could overide this but who knows.

its not my problem that leaf did not look through a few pages and i know he would have got the answer 1 or 2 pages back but some1 could have put him wide
and yes if i had have been on line at that time and not in work, i would have helped him.
karljd no need to take a dig at me, i was'nt saying you should have answered him, just 'anybody' could have and yes i know you cant be on every thread at once and answer every one

May I just say a very big thank you to all on this site who constantly help people like me to gain the knowledge of how to do these things. And also a big thank you to the programmers who also make these things fool proof. Got everything sorted and I feel so clever when really its you lot.
Many thanks yet again x x x
