The first advise I'd give is to try using some other software besides that which comes with the Starbox. It is good for
HD, once you learn how to do things, but I think you'll find other software easier to use, while learning.
I'd like to ask a favor, however. Could you tell me what the power module for the Starbox looks like? Ie what is written on it? Ie brand, voltage, polarity?
The Starbox itself doesn't say what is required, and I've somehow misplaced the darn power module. I have about 30 or so of these wall wart things, and can't figure out which one goes with the Starbox.
I haven't used the Starbox for about 9 months, but recently came up with a potential use, and would like to hook it up again. What I remember about it though, when I was using it, is that it is the least sensitive of all the receivers I have. Ie you need a pretty strong signal for it to work. The software that comes with it though is not very user friendly. I ended up getting MyTheatre and ProgDVB, both of which were better, but I can't remember which one I preferred. I was REALLY hoping that Rod would make a source for this receiver for TSREADER, as that is the program I use most of the time for my other Twinhan receiver and my Broadlogic, however apparently this is not going to happen.
