Starview 5 time display/best USBs

[redjack77]

Hi newbee here, i have just set up 2 new Starview 5's in my house upgraded from a SV3 and a SV4.....very happy.

2 things tho...firstly whats the best usb memory sticks to use? I currently have a cheap tempromental 16GB pen drive, and a basic 1GB on the other (only 30mins recording thime). Thinking of getting some 4GB micro SD cards?? will they work?

Secondly and im being very fussy, for some reason the time of day is no longer displayed in the banner when navigating channels? used to be there on SV3 and SV4, why has it been taken off? Its really narked me and yes I know i can press the yellow button but thats far to much effort!!

I have used sandisk and tried several cheaper ones all seem to work ok.
Check fleabay i got a 2/12 in Portable 40Gig HD Usb new on there for under 20 quid and its great very quite and works great.There is some software to format HDs above 32gig in the PC section works well on vista its called Fat32Formatter .
SD cards will work i think most memory Cards will work but i think transfer rate could be slower than other stuff.
Best option i have found is the Usb HD m8 hope this helps you.
