    Starview HD Combo

    Just been looking at this online, can you add firmware to this and recieve all channels just like my Starview USB2 can? Does this work with Sky and Cable? If so what is the firmware called? Just new Cheers

    you cant hack Sky If you buy this HD receiver now, you should get your moneys worth, but dont trust me on that After SV 3, SV really screwed their firmware up big time. Eurovox have released many beta versions before an official release, but it seems that Starview make firmware that works with many problems with the attitude if you can get free TV out of it, quit your moaning ever since the release of SV 4.I would get a Eurovox instead as the sat side only gets you FTA stuff, seeing as theres no ethernet port and I seriously doubt these can s/s like the predator 8700 which costs a lot more for SD

        Yes, with the satellite side, you can enjoy all the free cbeebies you like :P

        Sorry for that tongue in cheek post, however its widely known that whatever you do to your dish or receiver, you cant hack Sky. I did say in my post above yours, so thats why my post was tongue in cheek, seeing as though I dont think you read my post

            please ignore parts of this post, as they dont have a clue what they are talking about.

            you dont just get fta, these are patchable now, will pick plenty up on thor with patch. dongle for ethernet out soon, ****. they also accept all cards and cams.

                Please refrain from CS discussions. How long the patches work on Thor is another thing once migration to N3 is complete.

                BTW most people here have a clue what they are talking about.

                Every one is entitled to disagree with someone's views or opinions, whether based on fact or not but saying someone does not have a clue takes it a bit far.

                  did not mean it that way, just saying info given by this poster was incorrect.

                      If you have one of the first HD Combo boxes, you need the Groove Rider firmware. If you have the Starview HD Combi + (plus) with a LAN ethernet socket, then you need the LAN version. They are both in Downloads.
