    The Box Super USB reviews

    If any of you guys have one of the above boxes, could you please give me an idea of what they are like.

    Are they reliable, does the PVR work well and is the firmware update process via usb stick really as easy as it sounds, if it is, is there any point in getting a eurovox, kryptview etc, as these seem harder to update.

    Thanks in advance guys.

        i have had a SV4 since last year about 6month connected to a 500gb External Maxtor with Seperate power supply and it works great just remember to set your EPG GREEN BUTTON before you start That will give you 6 days then just set the record prog - i always leave the SV4 on the chanel i am recordig and it Records great but it works ok if you have it on another chanel but sometimes it misses the start by searching for the chanel you are recording i have saved loads of concerts from sky arts 1 to DVD because you can plug the HD into your PC and convert it with WinAvi video converter

                Its a lot of effort to get it going but I've been told it's worth it when you crack it. I have yet to find that out will keep all posted if the stuff on this site works.

                          it should also be noted that ! in 20 of these boxes fail when flashing ( errorr 888 )so best buy the jtag fix when orderiing box other that that yes its a good box

                            you will get boxing but only comes on before the programme starts, you should have it on about 2 or 3 channels. no need to rescan tho'. ynwa.
