how you getting on with your dm8000? are you sure it`s an original and not a copy? i`ve looking to buy one and have been warned about sms dreambox shop selling copies. hope this is not true as if i order one from germany they cost just over £1000.

look forward to hearing anyone views on this.
 
my god it's huge..... my boner that is, not the box ;)

cant see that being true m8 his are all real dont even think there is a clone 8000 out yet sure the 800 are only starting to come through and from what i have been told they have a bit more time to get them right sms is main uk dealer from dream go to there site and he is there as a seller fro them , also why it cost you so much to get from germany is because of the euro its so strong at the min
 
2tone let us know about picture quality

have to say the picture is great on it and the images are alot better using nabilo image have to say its very good they have a pure image you flash with first and that puts barry allen on to your hard drive so you can put as many images on as you want there is so much you can do with this box even has built in wifi hope to have a dvd played in it soon

thanks for your reply, i think i`ve been given bum information about sms. i did email them yesterday and they had 2 left, they also said the price would be going up in a couple of weeks due to the weak pound against the euro.

do you think the picture quality is the same or better than the 800? also have you put a cable turner in your?

have to say i like it better than the 800 picture is very good also have two sat and two cable tuners in it so if you install barry allen you can load a couple of images and by just going in to the barry allen menu boot to a different images the epg as well in all the new images is good keeps some of them happy in the house now lol

also the price will go up on these and i cant see it coming down untiel the pound sorts it self out and it will be fun to see what they do when that happens

sounds superb, do you run barry allen on hardrive or usb? i run ba on usb on my 800. does the epg work for 7 days on sat and cable at the same time?

sorry for all the questions.
 
have it running on a hard drive m8 find it works better also the epg is great for cable and sat
 
I got mine on new years eve and i am very impressed so far with the picture quality and since ive jumped from a humax 5400 to this i found it very easy to get set up i.e flashing gemini 4.0 image to it and adding a channel list and clearing itv hd etc no probs !!

Thing is tho i havent a clue wot to do with or how to use barry allen and i could do with adding a couple of cable tuners to it but have no idea where to get these from yet ??

Also which is the best hard drive to use with it as ive read conflicting reports about certain makes having problems etc ....?

Just to add i bought mine from the official uk supplier and it was delivered next day.

Cheers

fidds....
 
if you use the naiblo pure image first it will install barry allen when its on you will just have to reboot box go through the set up and then you ftp your images over to box when in go to the barry allen menu on box and install it from there also in that menu it will let you pick what image you want to boot to easy m8
