Hubby’s Technomate box is on its way out and I have finally persuaded him to buy an Xtrend ET8500 with a view to me setting it up with the software required. Although we have had a few previous boxes, someone else has provided them already set up. This will be my first time setting up a box so no doubt I will be on here asking lots of questions.
My first question is probably the same as – how long is a piece of string!
What package should I go for? The box can be customised with tuners and initial software – what do I choose. Do I go for one DVB S2 and one DVB C/T/T2? Does this mean that it will run satellite and IPV? We specifically want Italian TV (and have a separate large dish to the main Sly dish)
And the choice of software is
Factory Default
OpenVIX
OpenPLI
OpenXTA
OpenATV
Which do I go for?
