Isn't that a cable receiver

I suppose i should have called the thread Whats your favorite satellite receiver when satellitehelp merged with Techwatch

It was started when the forum was satellite only so there would have been no need to distinguise between sat and cable

Thanks for posting though

If i didn't know you already had one i'd think you were being funny

Its running UR13 and its actually not running too bad at all now

I don't think the hardware is w@nk its just the images although they are definately getting better each time a new release comes out

I'm just hoping to be able to try DS3.6 before i sell it in favour of another Dreambox

Its supposed to be a real work of art from what i've heard

I'm almost tempted to keep the box just to see if it gets any better

Its been up and running for about 50 hours now with no reboots or major glitches which is not bad.

Its still got to beat my Dreambox though, up for 27 days & 16 hours before a reboot. Mind you i was on holiday at the time

Its got to be linux box's, tm1000 series are so easy to use but boy are they boring. If you wanna watch tv then there great but a tm9100 will keep you going and going with so many different options to use. Also I do get one or two more channels open on the tm9100. ;-)

I'm waiting for the new dreambox 800hd but it looks like its going to be very very small. I personnally don't like small box's and lots of electronics it breads heat. Digi albiania has 6 hd channels now so must get one soon. Due out 14th I think.
