[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 11903, member: 174998"] Neutrino is the name of one of (so far) three alternative Linux-based softwares for the Dbox2. Others are Enigma & LCARS. Neutrino is an open-source project, written for Linux by hobbyists. At the moment it is a fairly rough product, very unfriendly for the casual TV-watcher, but promises many interesting future developments. To get the most from Neutrino you need to operate your dbox2 while it is networked to a PC. The PC can then be used (for example) for hard-disk recording of the satellite channels. The dbox2 (like every receiver) has a "boot-loader" which is the route by which new software can be loaded. Normally the dbox2 bootloader prevents all software loads unless they are acompanied by a particular 128byte encryption signature. Placing the box in "debug" mode gets around this, and allows the Linux hobby software to be loaded. There are numerous companies across Germany that will do that for you if you are nervous (it does require two solder points to be connected internally). But what you should really ask yourself is: are you prepared to sacrifice ease of use of the dbox2 in order to gain a bunch of specialist features that you as a beginner would probably not be interested in? The hompage of the Dbox2 Linux project is here: [url]http://dbox2.elxsi.de[/url] It includes downloads, FAQs, a forum, and a comparison of the Neutrino and standard ("betanova") features. Most of the content is in German. Here's another good site too: [url]http://www.neutrino-anleitung.de[/url] If you haven't yet selected a receiver, consider: - Humax 5400 (original, or patched "Z" model) - Samsung 9500 ci For more on the capabilities of those, search this board - you'll find links & info. Both receivers can accept CI CAMs (Common Interface Conditional Access Modules) but since patching the receiver turns the embedded CAM slot into a multi-encryption-enabled device, it isn't actually necessary for most common encryption systems. You could place in the embedded CAM slot a goldwafer for PW or a funcard for PW and loads of other providers too, without having to purchase a CI CAM at all. 2old [/QUOTE]
