I took half a day leave today for my driving lesson in the late afternoon, as I left my office at 12pm I went to Sim Lim Square to purchase some network equipments for a new project site. As I was leaving Sim Lim Square, I remember Boon showed me a forum about a USB flash drive that can stream 1000+ of international channels that was on sale at Sim Lim Square.
But the bad thing is that I don’t know where in Sim Lim Square to find a retailer that is selling the USB flash drive. So I whipped out my HTC Hero and Google’d for Star IPTV, I managed to find the brochure that was scanned during the last COMEX show on a website. Immediately I called the number on the brochure to inquire about the USB flash drive, after getting hold of the unit number I went over to the unit and bought the flash drive.
So here’s the drive 🙂
The retail package
The lanyard, Star IPTV USB flash drive and a membership card
The USB flash drive in the box
The lanyard
The Star IPTV USB flash drive
When you plug in the USB flash drive into your PC/laptop USB port, a installer will run and install the streaming software to your PC.
When installation is completed the Star IPTV software client will load
Some channels and streaming available on Star IPTV
CSI:NY (streaming)
Discovery World (live)
HBO (live)
National Geographic (live)
TVB Drama (streaming)
Hong Kong TVB Jade (live)
For the price of SGD$178, you can get a comprehensive list of live and stored streaming video in one device with good video and sound, but the video quality cannot be compared with those from Starhub Cable Vision or Singtel MIO. Who cares as long as you can watch live TV programs from 1000+ international channels and with the recent price increase Starhub Cable Vision, this will be a better alternative. Psst… you can also stream live football matches 😉
You SHOULD get this if you are lazy to install various streaming software just to watch live (TVAnts, PPLive) and stored stream videos (PPStream, QVODPlayer) which is a very good all-in-one streaming client software.
You SHOULD NOT get this if you are particular about video quality and want 5.1 surround sound and HD quality video.

Good! Please let me know more details. I would like to get it! 🙂
Quality looks alright. Most importantly, how’s the adult channels??
The USB flash drive is just a dongle that holds the streaming software right?
Does it still work if you manage to copy out the software from the USB flash drive? Does the software detect for the USB flash drive before it allows streaming?
Is there a need for a Membership card to login?
goddamn! you got it already????
hey bro.. brought it liao .. but then a lot of channel cant see leh some more very laggy ..
Hi,
Any ideas if the Star IPTV is tied to a subscription? Read that there is a free 1-year subscription tied to it. After that you will have to pay to see the channels? Any expiry date shown in the Streaming Software?
anyone interested .. i am selling off mine .. brought at 180 .. letting it go at anything above 100
Hi william..i just saw yr comet on yr bloh when i google . I had just bought the item at SITEX .. saw u guys talking about the adult channel..which channel to slect huh..my email is jamovs_2000@yahoo.com

Hi Khoo,
I’m interested in the IPTV, can i check with you is it very lag when viewing soccer live? Thanks.
I got one from Comex 2009. $138.
Sorry it was Sitex 2009 (not Comex)
Hi Anonymous,
Yes, the flash drive only holds the streaming software. The streaming software does not work if the USB flash drive is not present or when the files are copied to another flash drive.
Their support phone at 6336 5288 (Sim Lim Square, #02-26, Ray Tech.) is always engaged. Guess that they are some of those Ah Beng or Ah Lian shops at Sim Lim Square. The saleman who sold me the dongle wasn’t very polite either. People better be careful with these sellers.
The shop is opened by some PRC
Is it illegal?
think it’s not legal, but do you think your telco will go to your home and grab that device away?
sori dun no abt soccer channel but then i am using starhub broadband … so guess e speed not there… if anyone keen to buy … email me at khookon@yahoo.co.uk i will be away from spore in late dec…so i dun need this anymore
Hi all, anyone encounter virus attack from the dongle? When I plug onto USB my AV will detect and banned the software. How to solve it?
Hi Anonymous,
So far I have not seen any expiry date in the streaming software. I can only answer your question after 1 year later to see if all the channels expire 🙂
hi….i got one, but the lady who sold it to me (Sim Lim Square) didnt give me passwords for adult channels….do u have the password?
Hi can i have the password for adult content on the iptv.Got the item but the sale gals nv give me
Hi Joey,
Unfornately, I do not need password to access the adult contents.
Bought the IPTV dongle but I tried it on 3 of my computers (2 PCs, 1 laptop), and the antivirus software blocked the program for backdoor.graybird on my Norton, and Backdoor-ARR on my Mcafee.
Just wondering if you got any antivirus or trojan warnings from your antivirus.
Hi Lawrence,
I’m using ESET on my PC, so far there is not warning from my antivirus software. Even tried it on my laptop with Kaspersky installed and able to use the IPTV dongle successfully.
Hey can tell me where to buy it? Heard it enables me to watch soccer live
Hi William,
Bought one at the IT Show, but the china doll who
