Best Cable box available

[Skippy316]

Hi I'd like a little advice on the best cable boxes out on the market, i have a skybox f3 but my sister in law doesn't have a dish and is looking for a box, I used to have a starview box a few years ago before they got decrypted and have found out that they are back on the market but after doing a little research seems they are not the best option out there. Is there any boxes where u pay a one off fee anymore with no subscription charges and do u still need to be on Virgin any advice on price etc would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

kryptview a780 think around ?150 only box,plenty of posts in that section.

Thanks I was looking at them and seemed best option, do you think they are better than the skybox f3 may make the change myself

Without saying too much the only difference between cable and sly boxes is HD. Why are you getting rid of your F3 ?, a dish is like a tenner tops. Alot cheaper than ?150 for a kryptview

people should read the other bit " but my sister in law doesn't have a dish and is looking for a box " i know i miss things sometime also

cable and sat are 2 different systems using their own way to receive channels,both systems need a working fixed lan.

I am using a OEM Android OS Cable Hybrid DVB set-top box.
Best of both world, with DVB-C TV native apps and IPTV apks, and countless of Android multimedia streaming movies apps.
Best union!!

Get a combo , Zgemma star H1 does both , E2 runs PLI VIX openATV then you have best of both worlds sat and cable. Cost ?77 from UK dealers delivered ,,,google it

baldybear ? , cable is the best by far, full HD unlike sly and freeze/flicker free, you just need to shop around

[bifftannan]

[cactikid]

must have missed something big since when did cable become superior over cable? unless you mean hd on 28.2

If the shop starts or ends with mobi I think that's the one bit of a cryptic message there
I worry about these kind of places though but if you got your box loncell fair play.
Might try them myself not much difference in price to China.
Does that include delivery though?
I paid 148 from China delivered.
