It will still work,you will have to manually put the keys in when they roll,if you didn`t already know this,but i thought the firmware for the box worked for the box pvr,can anyone confirm this.

Keys have to be put in manually at the moment no new firmware out for the PVR don't use any other firmwares...
Sadly the PVR is not @ the top of developers lidt for updates and development but apparantly it still supported.
