Advice Needed Which SkyBox to get?

[paulwilko10]

I have been using an Eagle Linux box for a little while.

I don't do anything exciting with it, just watch TV.

I am thinking of getting a HD box and have come across these SkyBoxes.

Can any of you please give me a basic difference between the range ?

PVR is nice to have but unless it actually works as advertised, I would probably pull the rest of my hair out.

Looking for a decent quality picture.

Any help would be great

Thanks

Paul

Just go for the latest model, which is the Openbox F5S.

Thank you, what does Openbox mean?

They cant use the Skybox name any longer - Sky complained

Ah, bless them
I want to ditch Sky, hence the questions ;-)

If you are planning on using illegal card shares be advised Sky are slowly but surely tightening up their encryption. I think most of the HD channels are secure now.

Wouldn't dream of it, but interesting to know though ;)
Thanks for that

All the same: Skybox used to be Openbox.

As Analoguesat said, they were obliged to rename and briefly became LibertView.

That was so catchy, they soon reverted to the Openbox name.
