I want a microHD for 2013

Mine is still working fine, including the OTA function. It's been many moons ago when I had to use my PC to bring it back to life. But, I do remember that I had tried more then 10x times before it took the firmware. Now after many years of service, it's still works, along with the external...

I switched to Dish about two months ago. When the installer went out to the backyard, he took a step back and said "D**n, I never saw some one with their own head end in their back yard" (I have seven slimlines right next to my bud). He then pulled out his iphone and started clicking away. I...

Due to space limitations, I use Slimlines for some fixed KU sats. I have had good reception except for the ocassional rain fade. Recently, I thought I would try SL1PLL lnbfs to see if there would be any improvements in reception. I ordered and received five SL1PLL lnbfs from Sat AV which I...

Searched other sites without success. On one site, they claim their firmware and lists update by downloading via the factory web server. Could be false advertising info too. Still working on U.S. channels. Seems most U.S. streams use unsupported codecs and less rtmp. For U.S. need to request...

Have you received your version yet? Any improvements? Any new internettv.feed files? Still working on mine.

Just downloaded file 25 mb. Now to test and see whats new.

Of course most of us know that there are many out there that bought Openboxes, Az Boxes, Manhattans and many, many more brands. These boxes have been in the U.S. market much, much longer and they still have their firmware gremlins that need to be resolved. If they hadn't been introduced to...

Sorry, forgot to post pix.

Here's what works for me receiving 99 and 103 on my ten footer. At first, I didn't want to touch the main feed, but I couldn't get the 99 feed to receive more than 70% of the transponders with the main feed pointed at 103. So, I had to dremel part of the main feed and the 99 feed. Bolted them...

You mean the network settings? The only thing I show there is the media server start/stop. DLNA shows up in my play list when I have it connected to my PC. Media player that plays the TS files in windows is MPC-HC.1.6.2.4902.x64 or x32. It's an older version but it's free. I can't...

Good to know. Too bad (for us, U.S version) you seem to have access to more items in your icon menu. Hopefully, we will too. I was thinking of trying one of the foreign (newer other name brand...Octagon, IceCrypt, etc.) firmwares on mine, but I would have to change the receiver ID prior to...

Thanks for the detailed explanation. Time to do some googling.

Have you tried the DLNA function yet? Works very well with Wild Media Server.

Thanks Apsattv. Will give the editor a try. Just curious.. You said the Ultra's are sold in Asia but are similar to the Us version. Do the Ultra's support DLNA?

Are the Engima 2 versions you have been testing specific or will they work on all models?

I just use an editor and ftp the file back and forth to the receiver. Even though it may not play, I leave it in the receiver for a few days. E.g, some of the (sound only) had no activity whatsoever and then started working. Same thing happened with Business News and Euro just before I was...

LOL... discretionary cash.....??? Talk to PopcornNMore. Hmmmm... Raptor = FAST! Gecko = Cute in an ugly sort of way... Anaconda = Will wrap you up in it, which may be good or bad..... "A rose by any other name...." LOL http://www.satelliteguys.us/images/smilies/biggrin.gif Attached...

Apsattv... Thanks for the list you posted. Works great and most channels look good on the big screen. Always interested in trying something new. I'm a news junkie, I could post my live list of world news channels that are currently working on the Optibox. Nice to be able to get another...

Here's a chart I pickup from another site a couple of month's ago. Can't give credit cause I don't remember the poster. It shows the version number, chip id, freezing, 1 col, 3 col, motor, S9, S10 etc etc.

By the way PopcorNMore, that was a very well done review. On Internet TV+, you really can't hurt anything by playing with it. The CNET was a file listing it's URL; wasn't even LIVE, but a video stored on the CNET server, nothing less nothing more. If you want to experiment just make a note...

Jim S... and it started displaying channels from the adjacent satellite as well! Now, on a switched antenna system, this would be the coolest thing EVER on a receiver, but, on a motor, it's NOT cool. Yes, it's a nice feature. If you're on the same sat, you don't have to surf to see what...

I guess I am one of the people that like to try something new. If no one did, we wouldn't have new. Yes, it's pricey, but I like the accurate and fast blind scan. A few more that I like. I can set it to record MeTV for tomorrow and it will automatically turn on the receiver and hard drive...

I believe so. But the Optibox rep claims the Raptor has slightly faster blind scan and more connections. So far it's just as fast, if not faster than my Openbox S9. I ordered mine with two tuners. Plus the Raptor accepts a esata internal drive. I just use an external USB 2TB drive to record...

Optibox I have the Raptor which is the Anaconda with more bells and whistles. Pricey but worth it, just as the Sonicview 8000 was in it's day. They are both available currently at two other sites. EB is the expert on these two receivers. E2 is currently available for the Anaconda and will...
