    I also had to dig out an old dell to reflash an old eagle box with same issue on ports. Not sure how well these converters work to allow u to connect to recent hardware

    I also updated to this version and to be honest cant see any major differences. Thought the "moving dish" bug would have gone but alas not. Weird thing was that in the process after reinstalling channel and satellite. Lists the dish seems to have forgotten where 30w is . I had the dish...

    Yep that one can get a tad annoying and as far as the remote works fine but if you have big chubby fingers could be annoying as buttons are quite small. Would be nice if when you wanted to change the display settings that video was visible as you have to make any changes go see how it looks...

    The composite Yellow works ok. I use that to Feed a RF modulator to put the video around the house . I think you will be pleasantly surprised by this receiver and I love the blind scan which is sensitive and fast. cheers

    Hi there Just had a couple of days playing around with this new toy which was seen as a temporary measure before getting a proper receiver. No need to look further for my needs. The blind scan is superb and great for finding feeds and is faster than most I have seen. I was worried that...

    What to buy!,,, techno ate?

    For the money seems a good value box. One downside is the lack of rf output for routing round house but at the price hard to complain. How is the hd picture quality and sensitivity of the blind search and how long does a scan take ? Technomate always been fast search

    Tour de France 24.5W

    Interesting to notr that NBC sports network use them for the live commentary as well and must be tricky for them as on some occasions the feed that is used by itv4 will be showing different live pictures. Eg one channel showing the leader and the other showing the pack behind. Wonder which...
