So if it wont pick up sky sports hd i guess its not going to pick up any of the sky movies in hd either then!?

hi, martin. whats this azbox you just mentioned, never heard of it before. cheers..

hi boomer
it only the same as the dream box m8 but it will decode 4.2.2 its still in beta f/w at the moment m8 and buggy at times
i new this when i bought it i think it will become a great box when f/w is ironed out
some of the retailers have hyped this box up
and alot of very newbies have bought it and do not no how to use it then they are complaining its no good when its only lack of knowlage on using it
i think boxes like this should be sold with a warning (not for muppets)

cheops works very well with this box
