WHATS THE BEST BOX AT THE MOMENT

[johnjohn01]

Hi all i am thinking of geting my first box what do you all recomend ???

[Donnie Darko]

Depends on what you want to do?watch tv?stream to a pc?how much you want to spend?

[bugaloo41]

There simply isnt a best box. The best box as DD suggests will depend on what you want it for. If all you want is cheap no hassle tv there are many options, recoding likewise and now you even have hd boxes.

Personally, I prefer a ?50 dreambox but they aint everyones cup of tea.

yeh as the other posts have said it depends what you want it for and want to spend

is it just for cable? or do you want more

dreambox 500 can be picked up very cheap but as a noob i personally found them a bit complicated(but getting there now thanks to help on here)

personally if its just for cable and you want something easy to setup and look after the eurovox is a piece of piss 10 minutes and your up and running

dream box 500c - can any body help with changing colour of menu somehow have changed to a very bright blue any help would be appreciated

[blueandy74]

Eurovox for me, so easy to update when it gets blocked

Kryptview Arnet, and Eurovox EX5000 if you want to record. Great boxes:ridinghorse:

The Itgate TGM220 would be my box of choice...a little expensive but well worth a buy.
Otherwise I'd go for the dream 500.

[deegnm]

I agree with Freck, and the support is second to none.

[hafsi]

how does the tgm220 works and why is it better than dream 500

[Zoggo]

I use Starview 2 The Super Box, im trying to get the GTRom but thats hard lol

[kirit]

this was a really good post im really new to cable and sat as well
i guess as we can both see there is no 'best' box it all comes down to those factors that were listed above.

i currently dont own a cable box but when i do get one it will be a dreambox they are pretty tough to set up but will last you a lot longer than the other stuff mentioned- well thats what ive heard

im going to keep an eye on this thread and see how it develops

TGM220 and TGC200 work exactly like your dm500, enigma running box, with a nice PLF army following now..
except you have component outputs ,, and TGM220 version has USB port for external Hard drive.
Best picture quality around SD, great sound, and superior tuner to any 500.
oh and Hypercam

hi guys there is a box that can do every thing the v+ box does, i mean series links. Tks

[abe-uk]

Eurovox ex5000pvr

[Sparkyheaven]

I gotta go with eurovox ex500, the pvr device. So easy to use and update.

However Dbox2 ive had for fair few years now and if you no what your doing i think this is a pretty good bet!!!

[brianmullen8]

i would go for dm500 can get them about ?50 these days

[tech51]

Is the dreambox 500S OK with S*y?

[shady77]

the only boxes that will decrypt $ly are $ly boxes mate. nds videoguard isnt hacked

[tech51]

I've got a 500C and it's nevr let me dowm (Jockland) and I've redoe a starview which seems to be good as well, so what's the use of a DB 500S if you can get a technomate motorised rec and a Dragon + infinity USBn?

[jlover]

As everyone has said it is down to personal taste. I used to have a Eurovox Max V which I didn't have any problems with as far as watching tv was concerned. Being a bit of a techie i got bored with it and sold it to buy a Nokia DBOX2 - Absolutely brilliant - as I can mess about with it.

[bigup]

for the price, defo a 500c (clone), it just cant be beaten!
