Skybox F5 Quick Questions

[freakazoid789]

Hey

Thinking about upgrading from M3 to F5...

I just wanted to ask, whats the reviews like on the F5s?

would it use the same/different channel list format as M3?
would the plugins be any good? youtube didnt work last time
is it slow/fast switching channels as compared to the M3?
would it run well on wifi?
does it play divx from usb?

Thanks!!

F3 M3 F5 all take the same firmware so a bit of a side move really.

Hi. I'm very new so take what I say with a pinch of salt. I have thge Skybox F5. It is easy to use. I find the menu text and channel list very hard to read from about 5 metres away. I dont know if this is my TV or something else. I use wifi to connect to the internet. It has worked as it should. Youtube does not work on my F5. I hope this helps a tiny bit.

I bought an F3 about a month since and neither YouTube or You ~~~~ worked and there were also a number of display issues, that was with the Oct 2012 firmware.

I installed the latest factory firmware issued last week and it fixed all the issues including YouTube

As mentioned the same firmware will work for the F5

it plays divx avi mkv thats all i have tried so far the media player seems very good
