Does anyone have it?
Any info if it has BlindScan and is doing 4:2:2?

Thanks pback
In order to make decision, I will wait for decent rewiew.. these 2 items are very important to me, and they have to confirmed to work. Blindscan specially, it has to do a decent job in DVB-S2 (as Coolsat is doing on DVB)

If all you want is S2 & blind scan, the Sathawk right now does both very well

just doesnt do 4:2:2

Yes, Iceberg, I've read yours review... just waiting for 'perfect box'
BlindScan in AZBox is big disapointment.. othewise, it will do for me.

 

[Apprentice]

Have been reading on both of these. guess I don't understand why the blind scan in the Azbox is a disappointment?

The AZBox Elite and Premium (not the "Plus") only scans a fixed Scan Rate. It's almost the same as having a Dummy Sat for Poor Man's Blind Scan

 

[Mr Tony]

you can only scan one symbol rate at a time which is kinda useless since most sports feeds use various S/r

If they only add 4:2:2 to PVR800 ... Blind scan compares to Coolsat
BTY: I'm not big on recording, but take a look on this one:

I'll keep waiting myself for a box that blind scans S2, passes the AC3 and does 4:2:2. Until that time, I'll stick with my Diamond 9000. I don't care so much about recording.
