So what's best after Eurovox? - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Hi,

For those who don't know - I'm a paid up subscriber, as name suggests, with no cable and no broadband where I live!!!

Help out a few friends with Eurovox issues though and like to play with gadgets!!

So, the big burning question is - Kryptview or Starview6?
I gather both do same job, but opinion seems to favour Kryptview??
Just need to know before I buy some for the inlaws (and the outlaws!).
Cheers

kv wins everytime, much more stable and reliable server. dont understand why you never read releveant threads on the boxes as youve been here longer than me. bb is not your only option for sly either

I have went for the motorised dish and a spiderbox! A bit of work for me, but others find it easy to install and use, great football selection, films, and er, quite a few naughty channels also

Mate, I have read threads on boxes - KV owners say they are best, Starview owners say they are!
Interestingly, a Virmin engineer I know had pointed towards Starview although you, and others, refer to better KV server setup which makes it more appealing!

On my own Sly setup, I am looking at other options - moving house soon

kv seems best out of 2 cable units but imo satellite route is better investment.

he means that the same method which is used with KV and SV boxes can be used with sky as well

in otherwords its do able on SKY as well

only difference is that you will need go google it as talks about it on this forum is '' forbidden ''
