I don't know who you are buddy, or whom you represent - people can claim various things on open forums. What I do know however, I posted as much positive and objective info about Prof cards as just about any other product on this forum. What was the misleading info you're referring to? Its not welcome to copy such absurd statements to multiple forum threads and attack personally members, especially without giving facts, and its against forum rules to do both.

What I also know, I don't sell any sat cards. ;) As well, the cards in question are designed and manufactured in China by TBS, so what sense would it make to discuss their US distribution rights with a remote distributor selling them in Russia under Prof label? Just because they have an English version of their website? Most European webstores have websites in several languages - doesn't mean it makes sense to talk any product rights with them. I assume it can only happen to someone by being misled. And what can possibly be wrong, if people contact a presumed manufacturer with their questions and proposals? It happens all the time - so what? People still share all relevant product experience - positive and problematic - on forums like this. :)

Consumers in NA have the right to know the facts about every product offered to them. Can you post any proof that Prof company designed these cards or manufactures them at their own facility - where? Is there anything essential to that company beyond their website, any facility or property in any country - at what address? Yours and their pretend are simply laughable, and to be honest, it really can mislead easily, as I was misled initially thinking Prof company developed and makes the cards....in Hamburg, until people posted here to procure them from TBS address in China. :D These are all reasonable questions that prospective consumers have the right to know because there are laws in this country that protect consumers from fraud and misrepresentation - nothing "negative".

zamar23, I am not obliged to prove anything to you. We are doing the best hardware (PCB) and software (Drivers + Application Software = PTG Engine 1.7). You can have a different opinion. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

their own facility - where?
In Shenzhen. Come to our city.

Please read my previous post:
I will not enter into a discussion on meaningless issues. I will not try to destroy the myths and fantastic tales about our and competing products.

Good luck!

Soon. In April 2010 or May 2010.

But, as you can see in our online-shop, price of Prof-8000 will be high.

PCIe chip more expensive. And this is new product. For PCIe fans.
 
Hey guys. Just got a 7500 and I probably have a stupid question.
How do you install the driver in Windows 7?

It came with a CD and when I click the install driver link, it just opens a directory. Windows detects it as an unknown device. In device manager, I pointed it towards that directory but it says Windows could not find the driver for the device.
 
NEVERMIND. it was a stupid question. I had to use download the 64bit drivers from the Prof web site since the CD does not seem to have them.

One thing I noticed right away for others interested in this receiver. It comes with a european AC plug and you have to buy an adapter to use it here in North America.

Mine was also missing the remote batteries.

Now onto playing with my new toy...
 
I got my new one today, too. I chopped off the Euro plug and put on one from a lamp cord. Works fine so far. Watched the Yankees on it today. Been spending a couple hours configuring all the NA transponders.
:)
 
Mine is DOA it appears :(

No voltage out to the LNB. I've tried both ProgDVB and DVBDream.

UPDATE: Spoke too soon. Rebooted and now DVBDream is working. Now to play...

Mine was also missing the remote batteries.
At first, American shipping companies equated batteries in hazardous explosive cargo. Then tighten introduced other carriers. Recently arrived outright ban on the shipment of batteries via any transportation company or Postal Service. In view of the terrorist threat not permitted to carry the batteries. FYI, the batteries are allowed to carry only a lighter.

We manually removed the batteries from the box to be able to send you a package. Next Party Prof always be supplied without batteries. Rick will also sell the products without batteries. Either independently complete. We are unable to deliver the goods with batteries. Transportation companies are refusing to accept goods if they contain batteries.
 
Thanks for the info on all of that!

After playing around with it for about 8 hours I think this card is great. I'm using it on a new Core i5 Laptop that has an HDMI 1080p out to my 50" Plasma TV.

Probably like most FTA cards, it was tough trying to get it to run reliably on Windows 7 x64 though. I use a motor and the only program I could get to move it on a regular basis with USALS was ProgDVB. ProgDVD does crash every once in a while when I'm scanning for new channels. I'm open to try other programs if you guys have any suggestions.

The 64 bit version of ProgDVB wouldn't play AC3 audio (probably because of 32 bit codecs) so I had to go to the 32 bit version. The picture on HD content is perfect and looks as good or better than OTA content. SD content is a little jerky but I probably just need to try out different codecs.
 
I'm using SichboPVR seems to work well with Prof 7500:up
