Why not simply fit your hard drive internally?

Don't worry - we're not all followers Man U :p Some of actually do have season tickets for Irish clubs. I need to get a jpg of Shamrock Rovers for my profile ;)

It's not. And don't call me Shirley...

Great - thanks for that mate. All I'm looking for is two feeds for the Vu+ Duo and one for a Sat\TV upstairs. I guess a quad will do the job. A Wolves fan from Donegal. Now there's something you don't see everyday!! :D

When I setup my system 6 months ago, it was with a Dreambox 800HD and Inverto Black Ultra single lnb. I now need to get a quad lnb because I'm getting a Vu+ Duo :D First of all - what's the difference between a quattro and a quattro switch\quad? :confused: I am happy with the Inverto Black...

Just ordered a Vu+ Duo to replace my Dreambox 800HD. Hopefully it'll be here by Friday so I can play with it over the weekend. Thanks to all who have contributed to this thread! :-beer

Bugger - my 800 is only 3 months old. I didn't know they were upgrading the processor :-DOH! I like the idea that you can buy an original VU+ Duo for about the same price of an 8000 clone. I've also read that they will take all 8000 images so I take it that CCcam can be setup? :confused:

Thanks for the info. I should have mentioned that recording and recieving FTA HD channels are a lot less troublesome then others. I've tried most images at this stage and at the moment I'm using Dream Eliete Phoenix - seems to be the best so far. Intersting about the VU+ Duo - I certainly...

I currently have a DM800HD and am pretty fed up at this stage. It's a newish original (after replacing a clone that I though was the cause of the problem) and has a 500GB internal hard drive. The problem is performance - I cannot watch and record HD at the same time. This normally results in...

Huevos - it is a flash drive alright. I have a sata drive fitted and the problem I am having is when watching and wouldn't recording HD at the same time is giving bad performance. After some searching, I thought a swap file would help (RAM at 98%). Surely it wouldn't help if I put it on the...

Thanks Oily - I missed that. The drive needed a mountpoint. That's done now and I have the option to use it for the swap file. I've setup a 64MB swap file but it remains inactive. Any ideas? I've pressed the red button to activate it and it's also set to Autostart. I've reboted the box a few...

Hi. I'm trying to setup a swap file on a usb drive - I've been told this should help performance. I've added a 1GB drive and formatted it on the Dreambox & rebooted. When I try to add the swap file in the blue panel, the only option I have is the internal hard drive and not the usb drive. Any...

Do you have a list of the changes? I have a lot of UK & Irish variations added and usually manually apply your updates whenever posted. If I was to apply the new list it would take me ages to add all the variations again! Thanks :)

Yes, it's a clone. You reckon that might be the problem?
