starview freezing

Starview 7 box is freezing all through the man city/liverpool game,anybody else having the same problem?

its been doin it most the night on e4 aswell mate

My m8 has the same problem, all the channels do this but mainly sky sports 1 - is there anything that he can do to stop it from freezing all the time?

its most likely to do with the servers - slow in processing the information from the box to server and vice versa - maybe too many people on the starview boxes at once. Then again i maybe wrong.

or maybe with some boxes down also,seen a report of maintenance issue,if that were the case a simple post stating maintenance been done or due helps

I done some minor research and found this on another form about the Starview freezing problem, worth a try as his problem is still
there and it wont cost a lot to replace the cable etc.



"Im just passing on information of how I stopped by box from freezing and picture break up. It has certainly worked for me and now I can watch the footy without wanting to smash the box to pieces.

The problem was simply the coax cable and connections. All the original cabling, end connectors and splitter, looked in perfect condition but they couldnt have been.

I went to my local hardware/electrical store and purchased new cable, splitter and end connectors. Its important to make absolutely sure that the end connectors screw very firmly onto the cable as some cables are thinner and wobble in the fitment. (No good)

I did this over a week ago but wanted to make sure the fix was stable before letting you know. My box is working superbly now. The SV7 IS a decent unit."

i always like a good laugh as people buy state of the art tv wow full hd and using an sd box with old cabling and loose connectors and cheap scarts,but never bother to upgrade to a better grade of cables,that does sound like a bad signal issue and freezing but it has been great upto a few days ago when something changed.
