I have just done a firmware update on my SX88+ from 1.04.50 to the latest 1.06.04 . It sits in a cabinet next to my SF8008 and since doing the update my SF8008 controller controls BOTH receivers. I put version 1.04.50 on a USB stick to try and go back but it wouldn't let me. I surely can't be the first to have this problem. Has anyone else suffered this and what's the cure please.

You should be able to factory reset the 88, then use the stick.

Thanks guys for your advice. My SX88+ has been restored to v 1.05.50 firmware. The problem of my SF8008 rcu controlling my SX88+ has now gone. Deep Joy!

In short, basically another SF8008 with OSmio's tuner.
I would be interested if it sported 8GB RAM, 128GB flash (and a preinstalled 512MB M2)!

Then it would be too expensive for anyone to buy it.

2GB ram and 16GB flash without the pre-installed NMVe would have kept the price sensible and still been a nice upgrade.

Forget SR lower than 500, it now has Availink, same tuner as OsMio. And it's not even a certainty the images have implemented the E2 changes @ocean4 suggested.

the input tuner (RDA5815) did not change, only the input demodulator (Si vs. AVL) changed - so the sensitivity will be approximately the same

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

I have both twin tuner and combo 8008 receivers and have not found much of a difference. They are early models however.

Try the Android from GTMedia. The Combo is highly rated.

I have done a research and i do not see any other enigma2 linux receiver to arrive soon.
The only thing is i do not know much for novaler pro 4k tuner what is it and if it is sensitive too?
Do we expect something else to be out in the market during this year? Thanks.
