    I had a look a a system a while back as the race tech feeds aren't all encrypted though you need a sysrem capable of transverse?? Tracking (I think its transverse but I'm not sure LOL..

    So come on guys why would I take up satellite instead of or along side VM??

      i considered it but i think im waiting to get a dm800 as its got hd and i,ll keep my hd sat box, hd swings it for me i cant go back to normal tv now and i agree it would have been nice not to have to get up to flick a switch.

      still a great box tho at a good price compared to some boxes out there.

            There is no plans for HD at the moment for the current model as the HD processor is a little pricey and will increase the price by quite a bit.

            For this model, the idea is to give people an alternate to a 500c /s with more features for the same sorta price.

            They are now available for ?110 + pnp, pm me if nay 1 wants 1

              just bought one today, normally have only used dboxes and found this a joy to use, and at the same time no crap from the missus about space !

                  never used the sat on this type of box before so thought it would be a starting point to mess around with, I have a 1m dish bolted onto the wall outside with a diseq motor and it has been stuck on astra for the last year! so guess its time to start opening my horizons.

                        Looks like a tinkerer's dream. I think its time to sell the 500c and get one of these babies. Curious has good points but improved pic quality would be a boon and frankly its another cool gizmo....


                        One question...

                        If I were to create a backup of of Cyro's neutrino on this box can I then use this on a 500c ? Ie if i sell my sole dm500 and get this can I still provide support to my mates who have a 500c easily ?

                          The open media 500cs is basically a 500 with added extras, so yes, all your backed up images from this receiver will work on a 500 and vice versa.
