Hello all. I would like to know if the starview box has any sort of PVR functionality, a bit like the dreamboxs where you can add hard drive or connect to your pc and record onto there. I would appreciate any copmments from people who own or have used starview boxes regarding this. Also how dooes teh starview box compare to the dreambox or dbox in terms of funstionality and features (i.e. recording telly, picture quality etc.)? Cheers.

hi hickster, try this mate, go to a normal channell like bbc1, press the menu button, with the remote pointed at the box press the number 1570, this will bring up another menu, at the bottom of the screen it will it will say key emu off change it to on by moving the cursor on the remote to the right press ok and exit. a window will say now updating and all the channels will be there, hope this works for you let me know if it does and gives you a belated xmas prezzie. have a good new year cheers

Hi deefc as far as i no there is a prob with the starview as regards the black lines that is what i was told from where i brought mine from anyway.What i was told was to change the wide screen settings on the box and your tv you should be able to lose them

Hi Folks, I'm new to this forum lark. Anyway, got a starview box week before Christmas and it worked fine up to yesterday. Now constantly goes down, comes back up for a minute goes down, totally unwatchable. Anyone else had this problem, or even better does anyone have a solution?
Cheers

Starview = crap. Did another scan and got 334 channels, the new setanta ones are there now, still can't watch them but its nice to know they are there! Freezes, goes down, comes back up, freezes, goes down, absolute waste of money. Going back to box with card that needs updated now and then.
