Hi guys,
Currently I have an Openbox V8S operating my motorized dish. I've pretty much just discovered though that the box could be a clone as the seller on eBay I bought it from advised me not to update the firmware or it would break the box. (Despite the listing stating it was genuine. Currently trying to dispute it).
I've since been researching other boxes and one that I keep hearing about is the Dreambox. One of the features that really tempts me here is the ability to stream live tv to my PC from the receiver - especially if it means I can stream a live 4:2:2 feed and have it viewable on my PC through VLC.
I'm hoping someone could point me in the right direction on where I can pick up a genuine model and what I need to do to get the streaming working. Are they harder to setup than the Openbox?
Thanks
