The Alba Stb2 Was Recommended By The Aerial Instal
The Alba STB2 was recommended by the aerial installation company, I found it simple to install and use, I haven't had time yet to explore all channels available, nor have I experience of other products, but my initial experience of this product is excellent, I am going to buy another

The Alba Stb2 Is A Very Cheap Divice But It Has St
The Alba STB2 is a very cheap divice but it has still been money wasted!
It will not pick up BBC 1 or 2.
It has to be reset every day.
It will not display in 4:3 only 6:9 (it does for about 3 seconds and then flicks back).
One good thing is I know not to by Alba products any more!
Bit harsh because they have produced some ok products!
My Alba Stb2 Repeatedly Crashes, Usually At Least
My Alba STB2 repeatedly crashes, usually at least once a day, and has to be unplugged to reset it.
The symptoms are: picture jumping, and partial or total refusal to respond to the remote.
Even with good batteries, the remote has a very short range, three feet or sometimes only two, depending on whether the box is in a bad mood.
Do not ever use the timer function ! Mine does not change to the required channel, but only puts a reminder on the screen, which ruins your recording even if you left it tuned to the right channel.
Once set, a timer is impossible to unset. Even when set to "Inactive", it resets itself to "Active" every day.
This product tells me never to buy anything from Alba ever again.

I Bought The Alba Stb2 With Good Trust But After
I bought the Alba STB2 with good trust but after few months it is connecting to my remote. So I have to manually operate to see the channels. I even bought a new remote and tested through my digital camera when technician advised me. Remote is fine but the alba freeview is not connecting to remote. So frustrating indeed.
