[QUOTE="tonguedv, post: 151244, member: 199145"] Hi guys I hope you can help me out. I'm an absolute beginner. I've got computer(s) networked with a router, mostly windows xp but one pc in linux if need be, but newbie when it comes to satellite stuff. I havent bought anything yet, but I'm thinking of buying the following setup and would appreciate any suggestions or pointers to see if it all works together etc. Here it is :): Triax 4in1 multiblock £ 89.95 (are these good?) Triax 88cm boxed £ 44.95 (Is this a good dish?) Dreambox dm500 £ 159.00 Superjack dp6600 vbox 2 £ 64.95 (will this work with the motor?) Jaeger 99 gold h-h mount £ 79.95 (was advised against diseqc so is this the right kind?) Budget inclinometer £ 9.95 To be mounted on: 1 metre high ground stand (2") I know I need some cable to go from box to dish..Do I need an actuator aswell? Oh and does the Dreambox 500 work with a dragon cam etc and loader card(s)? Just in case I feel like the simple approach rather than use the emulators on it, or in case I decide to give it to my parents (theyre not into computer s). I am interested in recording to hd via the network, hence the above speel about the computers, but I would like it to be easy enough to use with off the shelf cams too. I was thinking about the Fortecstar Ultimate, if the Dreambox 500 can't do the cam thing easily. Hope that wasnt too many questions in one, hope I havent forgot anything...Isnt this exciting? :-) Thanks!! Dave [/QUOTE]
