    maybe they will concentrate their efforts on the openbox s10 and not bother about sorting out problems on the openbox S9.

    I check every day in the hope that they've released firmware that resolves this problem, but to no avail.

    does anybody even know whether they are working on the problem?
    Are you sure the rebooting issue you have is not down to corrupt channels, the list i upload is free of channels that reboot the s9

        Yep, any problems can be sorted in a couple of minutes. Small price to pay in my opinion for a great little box.
        I'm using Kev's dump (so to speak) and all's good.

            Just some of the sly sports channels and sly news for me. There is a few versions of these channels, some have problem , some dont. It only takes 5 mins to sort it in fairness. Not a deal breaker imo.

              No corrupt channels are missing, i edit the corrupt channel so it works fine

                Can you point me to your channel list mate? My openbox is coming monday so want to get all the files together that I need.

                Is the NM_HDS2_CMT_1101030405 the newest firmware to use?

                    Just Ordered My Openbox S9

                    Hi All,

                    Thought I would introduce myself !

                    I'm Rob from Liverpool UK

                    I have just ordered my Openbox S9 from Ebay so I will probably need some help when it arrives.

                    I decided to opt for the Openbox rather than the Dreambox due to the information I have read saying that its really a no frills box, I am not yet ready to tinker so we will see how it goes.

                    Am i right in thinking its relatively straight forward to configure ?

                    Can I update firmware by USB drive or do I need to order a special cable ?

                      Hi Rob welcome matey

                      No lead needed bud unless your using an external drive then youd need a usb lead or you could just use a usb stick

                      Openboxes are very easy to use and configure

                      Cheap boxed but fantastic HD picture

                      Cardsharing works like a charm

                      If you need any help or advice shout up

                      Kev

                      Hi Rob welcome matey

                      No special cable needed just a usb stick / drive

                      The openbox is very easy to configure its fairly straight forward, plenty people on here inc me will help you out

                      Im well happy with the s9 HD box at a cracking price

                        Your help would be greatly appreciated.

                            Either scan the sat for channels or upload a channel list to your box I would imagine
