    I have a Starview 2 (The Box) and Starview PVR. It would appear from this and other forums that FW support is going to be limited if in fact none existant???? I have heard the reasonable argument that OK if they won't support older models release the source code on the open market as with Linux models. The reason they don't? Profit! They want existing customers to upgrade to the supported models. "Brand New Customers Only" The hero of the average Joe and working man has turned into Bill Gat*s and Richard Brans*n combined.
    So yes I agree. In a time limited and risky market keep hold of your old DB2 boxes. PS anyone recommend a supplier for a genuine DB 500C?

          Re DB500C queries.....dunno if allowed to put web link in so I won't.

          Google dreamboxshop - ?159 and they state they're genuine.

            The only thing that baffles me is that the same company that makes starview has made technomate recievers and the support on those is excellent, what's going on ?

              Has any one got the email address for starview then we could all email them asking for a fix and maybe if they got enough emails they may do something about it

                    No problem with people looking for an email address but please make sure they are correct and use pm.

                        It was the SV3 fix and I have deleted it and had a word with the poster.

                          starview the box pvr

                          Ive had one of these boxes for about 3 months but it looks as if we're not being supported either. Eurovox pve the ex 5000 was one of the first ones to get the new flash.But here we are a week later and still no sign for this box
