CW-800S vs Visionsat IV200

[neftv]

I interested in having the PVR function but I need to make sure that either does not have a lip sync issue when viewing a PAL feed converted to NTSC. I read that tne CW has a sensitive tuner. Both priced about the same. Does anyone have any opinions on both or either and how is the support? All comments welcome.

What I like about the Visionsat is the fact that the software developers at the company are constantly working on firmware upgrades. I like it when a company releases a product and then stands behind it.

INDEED ! All of these boxes have major problems when first released, it's only through continuously addressing problems that they become reliable . Having the OEM and dealer and customers interacting to resolve issues to optimize the box is a great situation.

AGREED 100%

Most boxes I have have had NO legal upgrades since the box came out. Its nice to see an upgrade from Visionsat on occasion to clean up the bugs

Has anyone tried the newest Visionsat firmware? They've added a few features (most of no interest unless you subscribe to a service), and changed a few things. Looks like its been in the works for awhile.

I'd like for them to add a window during blind scan which displays the transponders as they are found, similar to how the Pansat boxes work. I miss being able to see what transponders are being found during a scan

I have the newest which is 1.40 in the box and it cleaned up the 4:2:2 issue (box would freeze on a 4:2: feed)
