when i sent hem an email asking questions about another type of box they just ignored me so maybe its just as well you did not ask anything..
Or do you work for them?
Just pre-ordered a 500HD!! Ordered through hxxp://www.dreamboxshop.co.uk/ hopefully I won't be waiting too long for it to be released!!
Not having the box yet will make sure I take my time and research dish/LNB setup properly and get what I want out of my setup. Back to the forum for some more reading then!
Although I didn't ask any questions before buying I did do a lot of reading on here and there is some really good info available on here. Keep up the good work everyone!
Hey,
I don't work for them....I have read that on other forums...someone posted on one site, basically stating that he knows the guy and is genuine however is kept pretty busy and get's a lot of emails, so doesn't always get back...it seems universally considered a decent place to buy dreamboxes from across a number of forums so hopefully all will be okay?! Although I'll have a nagging doubt in my mind until I get it delivered!
Okay interesting, I don't have a cable feed so I'll be sticking to the S tuner. I will however be more than happy to take some nice high res images of the insides once I get it!
hopefully the box will not be a pile of shite, seems like you will be one of our guinea pigs on this model... I hope you are very familiar with DMs and image creation as their will be no support for a while until the image makers and developers get their hands on them, granted it does not take them long but you will be flying blind to start with.. Have you used dreamboxes in the past?
I'll second that as well, it better not be a pile of shite!
1st dreambox...I'm quitely confident from the information available for other models that I'll be able to work out what I need to do to get things going.
I have a basic understanding of Linux and a pretty techie background so i think I'll be okay with a few pointers...well fingers crossed
That's what having these things are all about anyway tinkering learning getting things working. It wouldn't be any fun if they worked out of the box!
will this 500hd will it take same image as once for 800hd?
it will have its own image for dm500hd
once the creators have started on them
dm800-s=1.1 m triax motorised dish=titanium twin lnb

Is there actually a definite release date for this yet?
nope not that I've seen, just rumoured for September 09 release
Just need to calrify something with USALS and diseqc if someone can help out.
Can someone confirm for me,
diseqc is the standard for sending control commands up the coax to the motor from the receiver. The motor itself has nothing to do with USALS that is controlled and run by the receiver...dreambox in my case??
cheers!
yes mate the reciever tells it when to move and stop, but the motor must be USALS compatible

Excellent....was planning on going for the Technomate TM2300 I can see it supports 1.2/1.3 diseqc but I've only seen a couple of places that mention that it's USALS compatible.
diseqc 1.3 and goto x are essentially USALS aren't they?
Thanks again!
