That's what happens when you buy a machine with closed firmware mate.
Name one Linux machine that has been forgotten, they are all still supported.
The official model number of Technomate's Linux HD: TM-800 HD & optional WiFi!

Elanvision and Triple Dragon...
Don't expect that coders work for free, that's why DM has Gemini and CCcam, and ITGate/Technomate has URTeam and Hypercam (now works on dreambox also).
Linux is the way to go, but don't expect free lunches from coders... Good support is paid, that's the way it works. Since DBox2 this is not an hobby anymore, this is business.
So let's wait to see what teams ITGate/TM hired, if it's Pli and EDG, I think the receivers will have a good future ahead.

Those were forgotten even before they were released.
Didn't they have closed linux firmware too?
Code:
You don't have permission to view the code content. Log in or register now.In sat scene, good coders don't work for free. If they did, DM didn't had to hire the best, Gemini and Uvadi Team (CCcam).
My advice is to wait and see what teams will support the receiver, if we get EDG, Pli and maybe nabilo, I think the support will be good. If we get urteam and dsteam only, oh well... I think that it will be enough for some users, but not me.
EDG did an awesome job with TM9100 (great skin and bugless), I don't understand why technomate didn't hired them for TM500/TM600. Maybe they learned their lesson, and hire EDG again.
I agree sound advice dont buy any reciever Linux or otherwise until you've done your research and are confident that it's well supported and has no significant bugs that are going to affect the functionality you expect. Even woth linux recievers support is only going be as good as the teams/community/developers supporting it..
Let some other people buy the recievers 1st and be the Guinea pigs/beta testers and only buy when it's a safe bet that they do what they claim to do..and the software/hardware support is up to scratch...
BTW..Starview support has always been rubbish they are notorious.,.for releasing new recievers in quick succession and conveniently ignoring support for previous models,
it needs to also take a enigma 2 image from the dm800, lots of reason you might ask.
if you connect a dream-box to a windows7 media centre over cat5, you can stream HD and have full control over the DM800.
will a TM800 do this no.
what will you be streaming to you might ask. a XBOX360 you can have 5 connected around the house all over Cat5 and full 1080p plus up scaling from the server. that my 2 pence worth.
i might do a video for you lot on you-tube, of a system fully working .
its the nuts one menu and all tuner working multi recording.

I'll wait for the video on YouTube coz I have no idea what he was saying
I think he's saying that he has 5 Xbox360's connected to a Dreambox 800, screening video at 1080p over his network, and that cannot be done on the Technomate 800 unless it is running firmware written for the DM800?
:err:

it's not rocket science, link below for the software needed... the only fount end that windows7 can see is a xbox360..... and you need the ultimate version.
what i was saying is the max fount ends you can have is five.. and use the 32bit version as your going to use a few more pluging and the 64bit version of windows7 only allows certified drivers.

not sure what DVBLink has to do with the TM800 using a DM800 image, it will be based on E2, like the TM600 is an enigma box but doesn't use the DM500 images directly, my TM600 works with DVBLink on the Enigma setting, only tested it once though as all i could find was 20 day trials.
pretty sure all DVBLink needs is a stream coming from box in same format as "Enigma/E2" uses and have the same formatting for channel list/bouquet and sending channel zapping commands.

dude i dont know if we are talking about the same thing but my dbox2 can do that.
the point is, dream multimedia don't have the best receivers but they have the best software. that's why everybody wants to use it......
if the dm800 software can be ported onto a tm800, then it will sell 10 time more.
because it works with every thing and is easy to use...

it might be possible you know.
just like dm500/tm500/tm600 images are interchangeable
PS: tonights the night :L)

and your's is what 10 years old. it dose not have a 100 mbit card so cant stream HD... only 1 tuner fixed and so on....... but was good in its day as they cost nothing to buy... you need over 20mbit to stream HD cable tv on a network a using dreambox ....
i am not banging the dreambox drum, but a clone is cool and if the could port the software onto this tm800, it wound be the nuts as the firmware in a dreambox is the best, but they take the piss with there prices because they can.........
i would buy a tm800 if it ran on pli firmware..
i have a d2box and all the other boxes all over the floor and allways getting into trouble about my stuff and all the cables. i suppose i not the only one..
