[lamby]

HI

Yes cable ( virgin media ). The setup is working fine, it was just a question. The main reason was because you cant see the EPG information which is light blue with a blue background clearly .:sheep:

[killa_k]

im wanting to buy one for myself but thinking still.
what difference is it from the original modded ntl box???

1- copy the 2 bin files the a USB pen
2- plug it into the box at the back
3- turn on box and select language
4- go down to USB and select the 1 of the .bin file then press ok, (it will then flash and restart)
5- repeat step 4 with the other .bin file
6- select autoscan and choose your provider
7- press menu and enter 1570 (for hidden menu) where it says off turn it on (emu .. carnt remeber off hand)
8- select s*y sports channel and wait for it to update info.

enjoy! all channels unlocked


what difference is it from the original modded ntl box???

not sure what you mean .. the difference between sf4 and sf4usb is the usb easy flash (and that you can also add a HDD)

Thats why you need to also load the logo file .

[vrlika]

Firmware is in the very first thread called sticky and you have to purchase the usb stick separately but you can buy it at the same place where you buy the box from.

[lamby]

Hi
Yes this was the first box i have used. Followed the instructions and got all channels, I did use the first bios thought ( seemed to scan better !!! ).

Hey All, Thinking of getting the starview 4 as my first box. I assume it gets all the Scrambled channels? Does it work through a multichannel line in Ireland?

[satsmo]

Depends what do you mean by multichannel? It will work on cable in Ireland and N** MMDS.

[cabletvuk]

what are the grapics like on the box

[satsmo]

If you mean the EPG its fine, but sometimes need a re-boot to refresh.

[ajs2]

Will the same software for the seaview 4 version 1.2 work for Ireland??

[satsmo]

Yes 1.02 is fine. 1.01 has some problems in Ireland.
