      Hi,

      If you want to watch all Sly, ie films, footy etc, then you will have to pay.

      There is no simple solution like you had with Vermin.

      That said, you could look to get a Dreambox, but cannot discuss it here.

      Google Dreambox cs.

          Simply put you need to have a dish on your house. If you odnt have one, grab the cheapest sky package..they install it for you. Or if you know how, you could buy the dish and put up yourself.
          A Dreambox 800S or another HD sat reciever.
          You need to have broadband.
          You need to have a cardsharing account.

          Then you have everything, to enjoy all the channels.
          Setup: 2x Dreambox 800HD | 3x Dm500S on Motorised dish Setup

                  You would know if you had one, as you would be paying for it.

                      I have Vir Med with a HD box which I pay for, so does that mean if I buy a dish & HD sat receiver I will get all the channels like with St*rview?

                          its nothing like a starview.. it requires programing.. its not plug and play..

                          you have to:

                          Make your ISP Address static via a DynDNS Account
                          Port forward your Router
                          Set the Dreambox up so its part of your home network
                          FTP files to and from the box via your home network
                          Input linux code into the box to 'open' things
                          Find somebody to 'share' details with
                          Monitor traffic levels and connection status via 3rd party software..

                          It's for the advanced user.. don't want to sound a nob but your not giving off those signals
