Where to buy a reliable dm500s

[mrblue]

Where to buy a reliable dm500s, somewhere that won't be a problem to return if its faulty. Was told to stay away from the silver ones.

I have a black one myself and my brother wants me to set one up for him. Since Im a novice and have only had experience setting up a 500s I thought I may aswell get him the same.

Im pleased with its capabilities, would be nice if someone could explain how to record to my pc over the network and if it could be done on a mac.

Deal extreme sell the good clones
The black v8 ones, they ship direct from china. but you can get the same boxes from uk suppliers for 50 quid so easier to buy local.

I'd like to use the vlc recording method, could this be done on a mac?

Streaming ok with vlc but how do we record?

[dave-h]

For recording on a Mac, have a look at DreamStreamX >>> Download DreamStreamX for Mac - Dreambox streaming/recording/remote tool. MacUpdate.com

Hi All,
Just purchased from ukdreamshop , essex . Fast delivery but i have a problem with DM800 box , they are not replying to any of my messages, I have contacted google checkout who is their merchant supplier. I will give them a few more days to be certain they are not trying to rip me off, but i would'nt use them if i was you !!
Any suggestions would be welcome .

whats the problem with the box mate ??

[smoggie]

i have used ukdreamshop many times and recommended them both here and another well known forum, for the simple reason they are reliable and have good after sales service. I do have an issue at the moment with a box I purchased couple months ago and they are slower to reply to my emails about this faulty box than the accepting the order I placed for 2 boxes a week ago
