[QUOTE="agkouri, post: 527057, member: 292037"] Right, here is the deal.... After having the problems I have stated earlier, I opened up a ticket with DMM support. Regarding the ongoing restart loop with all images other than DMM one: After talking it out with DMM support, we reached the conclusion that it was a faulty tuner. I managed to convince the dealership to replace my tuner with that of a brand new HD 800 as they would not replace the whole unit claiming that it worked fine with the original DMM image. They didn't have any parts (tuner) for the DM 800 as it is a brand new product. So the box now boots fine and everything.... However, The tuner SNR % problem is still there, but it does not affect reception in any way. I've talked this out with DMM support and their official reply was: "The "problem" of the SNR is known but software-related (it just displays low levels even they are higher in real), we will fix this as soon as possible with a software-update." So there you go..... Hope this makes the picture a lot more clearier for those who came up with the same problems. I guess we'll have to wait for a software update. I've managed to access HD suisse from SRG SSR idee suissee on hotbird 13 (Euro 2008 in HD) and looks awesome! so the SNR bug doesn't affect reception.... [/QUOTE]
