                      is it me or did alamid just say he had an xbox super? :s

                      if you live in certain parts of the uk u may recieve an n3 signal, in which case any set top box you have at the moment is useless unless you have a reprogged card or your box has the right firmware on it (which isnt widely availabe / accessible yet if at all)

                      if you dont live in an n3 area and your not getting a signal on your Starview 5 TheBox USB II then upgrade your firmware to v2.03 for the super USB uploaded by (i think) JoK (which if i remeber correctly is password protected and no one seems to have a password for it :s might have to download it elsewhere, i did)

                      if you have a 8882 error (which is when ur channel display on the front of your box displays the number 8882) on the starview 5 you have plugged/unplugged a usb device while the unit was on (OOPS!)
                      This can also be corrected, not many people know how, but it can be done ;p

                      next time you post try adding more info, if your not willing to put in the effort yourself, its not fair to expect others to put their effort in for a problem that doesnt affect them

                      cheers

                            ..
                            guys its no myth, its repairable not sure how exactly, as mine was done by someone else at a cost.. satsmos posted a link for someone on ebay who does it but no one here has used this service from what i can gather from posts.
                            i got mine fixed back in jan and its been fine since.. have learned not to hotplug anything to it .. stupid idea anyway making a USB socket that isnt hotpluggable.. one would just assume.. and .. OOPS
