Quality difference between original and copy boxes?

[Nibor]

Is there any, and if, what?

[dctyper]

the remote sensors on the front panel can be weak. the front panel is flimsy. the tuners are poo, but all these can be fixed or you can live with

I don't think there even that bad, originals have problems to, such as tuner ect.

I find my remote sensor is very weak both on the DM500 and DM800 - both are clones, sometimes they are just really unresponsive, does anyone else find that?

I have the same on a original 500s...
But my 7020 and 7000 are OK...

I see. It's really annoying sometimes. You can really tell the difference when you use a $ky remote.

Yes but remember you pay sky ?50 a month LOL...

The remote sensor angles are the main thng, straight at the box they should be okay.

I use a Logitech Harmony ONE, a fantastic thing
But, I dont have the DB`s, DVD, Amps, etc close to the TV, so that could be some of the problem...

Is there a way around this problem on the clone 800?

On A dm500 there is no difference btwn copy and original.

On Dm800 both boxes have tuner problems.

Picture quality is the same

[I think] He means the slow response times for the remote

[Superman]

Orignal boxs also have tuner problems

As for the remotes, my personal one is fine, i can use it from at least 10M okay.

If you see it from the DM500`s side, the angle of "view" of IR signals, does not seem to be as wide as on 7000/7020...
So you have to be more "in center" of the box...

But, it is not a big problem, otherwise I have never had any major problems.

dont think im giving the wrong messege, im beinh honest. my 500c copy lasted 4 years wiothout a single feeze. i sold it on. my 2 dm800 work a treat although the lcd has stopped on one of them, bet hey. i save lots of dosh
