Hi, I'm Brad, and I'm completely new to this whole Eurovox/DBox2 stuff.

I've been searching through this site for quite a while, but I can't seem to find the answers I'm after. So sorry this has been asked loads of times before, but I did look (honest)

I just need to know whether or not a DBox2/Eurovox will be compatible with my 5ky digital service that I have right now. And if so, which would be better in terms of interface, ease of use, picture quality, etc.

We recently had a 32" LCD Pana installed in our bedroom and we were hoping for something a little better than bog standard freeview.

Thanks in advance everyone,

Brad

Why don't you say hello in the introduce yourself section then have a good look around there are plenty of info if you look try the Eurovox tutorials

Unfortunately, the Eurovox is only compatible with VM services

Damn, I thought somebody was going to say that.
Is there anything that is compatible with 5ky services?

Thanks for the quick reply.
