      As i said previously the Ratio for posts in the Open/Skybox section seems to be about 80% of all new posts of which 60% are people having problems

        You must know that the majority of folk only come here when things go wrong. No bloody time for DK if all the Sports and Movies are ticking over smoothly. Its like the Dbox days when the Rom 7 & 11 changed record members on line to get their fix.

        I had a boot logo (Free TV The Way it Should Be).

          You cant compare an encryption change to a problem with a certain brand of box, the amount of posts where people are having problems that do have a different type of receiver in the same household and report that is fine tells me that when someone pays ?50 for one then expect trouble or pay a little more and have trouble free service. Those are the Odds

            Just make a note of the next four or five members with less than five posts that come with a problem and get advice that fixes it. I'll guarantee you wont see half of them again till they have another problem. You only need to count the numbers asking where to find it just before theres Boxing on PPV. Next time you see them is just before the next event.

              Very valid point i think & pretty much true.......

              Most new members post ...Box dead....Missing channels....My box glitches....lost channels
              A quick fix & Then Astalavista....till the next problem arises.

              But i guess that's why where here to help
              I was in the same boat when i joined but stuck around because its a help forum & we learn new things everyday

                With this being most problerbly the cheapest hd box available then there will be a lot of folk buying them, they are not interested in the sharing side of things so this box will do them. I myself had to upgrade from an s9 in order to share... I did build a Linux pc server and learned everything I could on that before splashing out 150 on a box. Everything I did learn I learnt by reading through numerous forums like this one.. I read till my eyes bled .
                If the folk who are stuck actually took the time to read through the threads they will see that 99.5% of what gets asked daily has already been asked time and time again. All the answers out there,
                I am not having a pop at anyone who does ask for help, as I don't mind helping folk out whenever I can.

                thanks
                If it isn't broke, don't try fixin it..!!!

                  think i'll save up for the duo next, seems to be the one to have
                  im sure he can retrieve your gift. also once you upload gift, does that not void any warranty????
