    Bought a blade

    Bought a Blade 7000HD, Looks like a quality box, Do I need to flash images to it and install cccam etc, or is it already in it like spiderbox ?

    Regards and thanks in advance.

    hi m8

    you keeping well

    blades have cccam and newcamed ready when you flash it with the latest patched firmware you will find on dk then download the channel list from the blade online menu

    then hit 9991 on any channel and there you can enter your line

    they are a good box for the money you will enjoy it

      you will find the latest firmware in the link below, you should always install the patched firmware like the 1 below as the official version doesn't have the 9991 menu for your c line.

            hi billy

            i would not see any of the 2 blade or bm any better then each other

            it just depends what you want a box for

            if you need a box for hobbie ,intrested in the sat side of things and want a box to spend a lot of time learning go for a dm very good at what it can do being open sourced.



            if you need a box for veiwing sat channels in first class hd and sd picture

            simple to set up 20 mins, simple to use, has a 7 day epg menu ,channel update thru the controller in the blade online menu and simple to record onto ext h/drive. then the blade is the one to go for its very good for a closed sourced box

                hi billy thats why i stated the open and closed source

                and as i said its all about what you want the box for

                i have just ordered a new box from china to test try out which is a copy of a vu duo with twin tuners which should be a good open source enigma2 box and at 200 is well priced for its specs

                so if you hold of in buying for a week or two i can let you know how good or bad it is

                there is a guy on here data7 he has a couple and says there fine so im going to try one

                      hi
                      a portable usb drive will power itself from the bladebox no problems

                      setfire i dont use usals yet so cant comment on that but i have not seen anyone complain yet so should be ok and the youtube works ok most of the time

                          seems like a nice easy box to set up but can i just ask
                          once you have put the latest firmware in will the box
                          continue to work without having to keep updating
                          the firmware.
                          as this would be a perfect box for my mum,

                          thanks......bj1
