Ordered one last weekend, it's coming by road is all I know, no idea which country it is in, tracking is useless. But it does say it will be here by Sunday 00:00h(Saturday evening I read that), but not expecting that going off sat-tv-fan's post tbh.

If it’s leaving the EU economic area and coming by road I’d allow two weeks for delivery. Brexit put a large hole in the logistics chain delivery times. It’s knowing who handles the UK leg of the chain is the problem.

The last android dvb s /dvb t box I bought was a Mecool K3 pro, doubt it decodes 4.2.2 though ?

Did you try passing the output through VLC. The GPU spec on the Mali-T820MP3 looks decent but Android 6 looks a little ancient at this stage. No harm trying a 4:2:2 feed to see what result you get.
 
Does anyone know, if when this box finds a CW via Autobiss theres a way to view what it is?

It’s fairly much a “plug’n’play” receiver with the addition of an Android OS facility. Once you get it fully configured it should be a breeze for you.

It was the configuration part that floored me as I couldn't figure out how to get past what I guess was something like step 2 of maybe 8 or 10, and so kept going around in very small circles!

I'm pleased that they eventually got around to doing this, i requested also extra ones like 17400 for use on Norsat Band A pll lnb or better still a 'User' LO option that would have been more beneficial to us 'experimenters' within the hobby.
Never the less - i'm pleased and grateful for the current added Ka LO's.

Oh, yes. The GT Combo is very poor (unwatchable) at playing the ABC feeds here in the US. The SF8008 streamed to VLC easily plays them flawlessly. I like the little GT Combo, but at the present time its 4:2:2 support in particular is disappointing.

Rempfer need some info from you on the octagon

can you not goto the IP address of the softcams-port and grab the file?

I am just getting connection refused when I try ftp into the IP address it shows, What is the default username/password? I can't seem to find anything on Google which is frustrating!
 
Before I put the upgrade 1.17 into the Combo can those that have done so check if the frequency/symbol rate limits for a universal LNB have not been capped in the new firmware ?

Any other glitches that are present would also be appreciated since at the moment I am happy with 1.16.

Not at home at the moment, but I think its just the ip address of your box followed by :8081 in the address bar of your chosen browser.

It was the upper SR and the extended frequency goalposts I was more concerned about.

On which satellite between 55 East and 47.5 West are high SRs?
so i can give it a try
 
So, the montage rs6060 tuner can do SR 572 (nothing to do with the STB itself). Can it also lock the 285 SR on 23.5E?
