[QUOTE="A nonymous, post: 978371, member: 240839"] I just thought i'd pass this on, although i'm sure i will get people who will disagree. In the last 14 days i decided to try one of these Airsat Zgemma receivers just to see if some of the things i have read about them are true or not. I first purchased a S2 model. It arrived quickly and didn't even make it out of the box as it had been supplied with the wrong PSU which only had an output of 2amps rather than the 3 amp needed by the receiver. This went back the same day it arrived. I then decided to pay an extra £15 and go for a H2S model. It arrived with the correct psu this time. I set it up with Open ATV and initially was quite pleased with it. That lasted for about an hour when it froze which i thought OK its a firmware issue. I tried to restart the receiver by toggling the power button, and guess what, nothing, just a red light. I tried the PSU from another receiver which also didn't work. I tried it again the next morning, and it booted up, ran for a few minutes and then froze again. These receivers really are not worth the hassle and certainly aren't worth bothering with. Cheap Chinese crap. I cant be that unlucky to get two faulty receivers from two different suppliers. Fortunately as i paid through Paypal and my credit card it shouldn't be that much hassle to get my money back although i'm guessing that as the reply from the seller hasn't been favorable that i will have to get paypal involved again.
