Is anybody else getting commentary ??(Like a guy speaking over the actual film as if he's explaining to a blind viewer what is going on in the movie)

I also tend to sometimes get this in episodes of FRIENDS on E4 but its really annoying on films. Its not EVERY film but last night I started watching 'In to the blue' and also 'SAHARA' and the commentary occured on both of these films.

Is there just a simple setting ot something that I can change to stop this happening?

Cheers in advance

Paul

PAUL7331 you have Sportster.
I have Sportster,
ZAPP64 what do you have?

Becuase i think it might just be the image we have used to flash our boxes. mine came flashed from germany with sportster. and the commentary is so annoying.

Thats it then, its the image were using. It looks like COMMANDO 6 image has an extra setting which my SPORTSTER image does not. When I press green audio button I only get to choose which RADIO channels I want. Looks like I may need to re-flash the box! How easy is it just to reflash a new image??

It does look like it. So where can we get this image from and apparently there are two ways of flashing the box if i am right?

1)You can put the image on the box and flash it via the box
2) You can flash it with a software on the computer by connecting it with a cross over cable or 2 ethernet cables.

Which one is easier to do and which software do i need to use to flash, as i have a few softwares on the CD that came with my dbox2.

LOL! Exactly the same!

I have all the software on cd which came with the dbox2. i just need to download the image and flash the dbox2.

I know how to connect it to the computer through the 2 ethernet cables. i have added games to the dbox2 with no problem so i think i will be able to flash it. ill giv it ago some time next week.

i had this the other day watching UK gold.

one difference from you guys, Im using the original PACE Digi box supplied by TW - its because a cock up at the broadcast end has sent out the wrong audio stream i think.

if im getting it on theur own kit then i dont think your going to get it turned off with any amount of flashing.
