DVB-S Skystar2 is a SUBSET of DreamBox ?

Hi Friends

A general question related to Skystar2 and Dreambox.

Can we say technically that, a Dreambox is a superset of Skystar2 (or Skystar2 is a subset of Dreambox) according to their technical features ?
In other words/simple term, can we say that a Dreambox can do ALL tasks that a DVB-S Skystar2 PCI can do including data grabbing, softcam, PVR, etc .....
Hope to get a suitable answer from adv users.

If that so, instead of purchasing a new Skystar2 PCI card I can directly go for a Dreambox :-O

Can't answer all of your points, but one thing the Skystar can do which the dreambox can't, is view 4.2.2 feeds

Hi Rolfw

Could not get ur point ?
What is view 4.2.2 ?

Can we grab data (internet download) using Skygrabber in a Dreambox like we used to do with a DVB-S PCI card ?

Thanx

See this thread, it discusses 4.2.2 transmissions and no I don't think you can grab datastreams using the Dreambox.
