Zgemma H1 help please, what are these?

[hall-e]

Hi am probably going to ask a stupid question here but here it is
I bought a Zgemma H1 box yesterday off eBay, obviously it has not arrived yet so I have not even seen one in person.
Now here comes the question, on eBay in the description it says only get firmware from the genuine website. So I clicked on the Genuine Website and it brings up these but no description. Can anyone tell me what these actually are in the image please? Am I right by saying some are skins and if so which ones and what are he rest?

Those are image's or Firmware for the receiver in layman's terms, just to steer you in the right direction only 3 image teams give Official support to the Zgemma and they are as follows

OpenATV - OpenDroid - Italysat

The images produced by Vix and OpenPLI are patched images and should only be downloaded from there website. the official images can be downloaded form the official image website which are:

OpenATV:

http://images.mynonpublic.com/openatv/current/index.php?open=zgemmash1

OpenDroid:

http://droidsat.org/image/index.php?dir=Zgemmash1/

Italysat:

http://italysat.eu/board/resources/italysat-7-zgemma-h1.116/

The above 3 are all officially supported image makers for Airdigital/Zgemma and you are safe in the knowledge that you can upgrade the images online via the receiver without fear of bricking them.

You can use Vix or OpenPLi but you must use the Patched images from the Zgemma site

Excellent thank you very much, the box I purchased has the latest OpenATV installed, would you recommend leaving this one on? A lot of forums I have read say they recommend Italysat. Or is it really just personal preference, would like the recommendation from someone like your self who knows what they are talking about haha

Personally if this is your first linux receiver then best to get a feel of how to set things up and update images etc.. first with an official image then try other images even patched ones as you may prefer the look and feel of how those work.

You said it yourself its personal preference really
