I've been looking for a second receiver that would work with the Slingbox and recently went ahead with the Amiko Mini HD SE after I found a custom remote BIN file on the Place Shifting Enthusiasts forum. No connection to the internet yet, but I like the fast responsiveness/snappy menus and...

Looking to get another satellite box... Does the Amiko mini HD SE also have an android app that allows you to access other stb functions remotely (ex. Blind scan) or are the apps available only for viewing/streaming channels?

Since no response to my HDVR1200 q, anybody care to chime in on a suggestion for a receiver with a faster blindscan that works with Slingbox (or any Android app)? I like being able to remotely control the box and blindscan, but I'm looking for something other than another microHD that will be...

With my microHD, I'm currently using a Toshiba Canvio Connect 2TB drive - HDTC720XS3C1 - that I got on sale from Staples a few weeks ago. No external power needed. The drive powers down when not in use, so there is a 7-8 second delay when it comes out of 'sleep' after you hit the RECORD...

I have the MicroHD working great with a Slingbox 350 (although the 'MicroHD' isn't specifically listed when going thru setup) and am able to control the box with the slingplayer app on my Nexus phone. Would I be able to remotely control a HDVR1200 with a slingbox?

I recently upgraded the MicroHD firmware to the 20130626 version and I have been experiencing the same delay problem with KRBK. Sometimes the channel just won't pop up at all :confused: and I have to switch receivers/DVB PC devices.

Are there any CBC feeds still open on 107.3w? All I'm getting is CTV.

A few questions: 1) Would I be able to control the miniMe using a Slingbox 350? 2) I've recorded using the Openbox S9 and MicroHD, and I don't like that they both split the recordings into ~1gb .ts files. I've tried VideoRedo to combine the files into one but I end up losing a bunch of...

Thanks everyone, I'll get into more specifics once I receive a response from the manf.

Purchased a NEW commercial 2.4m C-band antenna (yes, mucha moola with shipping cost) and was delivered today in what looks to be less than pristine condition. Question for the experienced, would these scratches on the reflector side have any affect in the dish's performance? outer edge...

I've seen the following on the Occasional channels: NBC/Telemundo promos for affiliates Primetime programming for visually impaired(?) airing ~6pm ET on #17 Soaps airing in the wee hours I remember when NBC were still 4:2:2 SD on 103w they used to air show EPKs on a Sunday AM. I don't know...

The OP can purchase the Chinese made 240cm Digiwave stationary petal dish from a Canadian seller on eBay. A Canadian etailer also sells the polar mount separately. In addition to Andersen, may also want to look into DH satellite if you're willing to go a tad over that $1000 budget. They...

Checked out 58w on my motorized 1.2 with a geosatpro c1 and I barely get a lock on both channels. Al is breaking up bad - I'm guessing I need more signal with the 7/8 FEC?? But then I just slapped on the lnb this hot afternoon without any further adjustment to focal distance, scalar...

Long time no post... I think I may need to tweak my dish more. Same Geosatpro receiver and Geosatpro PLL LNB, but with a 1.2m dish. All NBC feeds hover around the low 70s. If one can get 70% with a 39", should I be getting more SQ on my 1.2 dish or is the bigger ku dish there to help with...

I want a microHD for 2013
