Thumbs up K780 buy or not?

Ive looked and looked around for which box to get and ive seen this k780, now all i want to know is will this box give me all the channels from a vm cable line?

or would a starview 7 be the best bet?

other than that i think i know how to do everything else.

thanks

KV780 I would go for, sv7 are not connecting to the servers at this time and that the new ones people are buying they will not connect, both boxes have problems with them both running cs.

cs is the only way to get free tv now so its either those 2 options above or satellite cs!

If you can go sat then get sat cs. But thb im very happy with kv at the moment, 95% of channels are up and running perfect.

They had a bad month or two, when everything went off, but all is well now.


But with the nature of all cardshare, it can go off anytime.

I have a kv from last year, yes we have had problems with them, thats why I mentioned it's cs, you will never get a box working 100%, only by paying ntl or sky. If your buying one then kv not sv, read up on sv threads and you decide mate.

I have the kryptview A780 and a Starview 6. The A780 is always glitchng in my opinion Starview is better as I have not had as many problems with it, but both machines have problems. Just some advice I would stay away from cable boxes
as they have big problems dealing with Navgar 3 and C/S . If you can afford it, I would recommend you to get a sat receiver as they don't give as much problem as the cable boxes do. Also remember that the surport is much much more better on the Sat boxes.

Ans: NOT

Hope this helps

Yes there is, but everytime that you watch something it just keeps on glitching.
With the Starview there are less channels, most of the main one, and it does not glitch as much. Have a look at the Kryptview or Starview threads to make your mind up. Also check the channels listing in each thread.
Hope this helps.
