    just make sure it isn't one of those TVstar boxes or UK freeview

    What's wrong with the TV Star box? :confused:
    I got one of those in Dunnes a couple of months ago and it's working fine for me.

    For the sake of the difference between what you paid for that box and €49 I'd rather have a Saorview approved box just in case something goes wrong later.

    For anyone in Cork, Clare, Limerick or Tipperary, who might be interested in a Saorview and FTA satellite installation package. I've just posted a deal from Co-Op Stores for €259: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056772317

    You'll only get a canned reply to call them on the phone anyway see below. They seem to want you sky box number when you call too.
    Dear Mr X,

    Thank you for contacting Setanta Sports.

    We have received your request for a FTA viewing card under the BAI Sound and Vision Scheme.

    The BAI is the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland and Setanta broadcast a number of documentaries in funded by them, examples include The Club, An Exile’s Home in the Bronx, Man on A Mission and Yes I Can.

    Please be advised that Setanta Sports is a subscription service and if you wish to view our fantastic sporting content then please contact us to discuss the subscription package options available. You will NOT receive our sporting content under the Sound and Vision scheme.

    We are happy to order a card for you however this card will only function in a compatible SKY set top box and if you have an existing Sky viewing card then you will already have access to the content we broadcast in conjunction with the BAI Sound and Vision Scheme. We must also advise that if we request a card for you and you do have an existing Sky card then this may cause loss of service on your current viewing card.

    We have the best premium live sport on TV including top flight Barclays Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League football, the best golf action from the Masters and the Open exclusively live, deferred coverage of the Rabodirect Pro 12 and action from the GAA.

    If you wish to proceed with ordering the FTA card we would need you to contact our customer service department.

    We are open from 9:30am to 6pm, Monday to Saturday.

    Regards

    Customer Services Department
    Setanta Sports

    To the people who bought this set top box from tesco, can you tell me if it comes with a HDMI cable included, and if there is an RCA audio output/headphone jack on it, as im looking to connect this to a monitor through HDMI -> DVI. cheers

    There's definitely a HDMI cable included. Not sure about the RCA audio jack though. I can find out for you tomorrow though if you want.

    Orange pilled.
