    Default What DM800 IMG Is Wife Friendly

    I want to make the DM800 Wife Friendly

    Got any suggestions on what might IMG might fit the bill

    I have trained her in the DM500 and the DM7020 ways and she hasn't asked me a question for about the remote for well over 2 years now LOL

    I really don't want the phone calls starting about how you turn the volume up how do you change the channel blah blah

    So what is the most basic IMG to install

    Any pointers would be great

    Cheers

    My partner won't use any of the receivers I have.

    All the images seem to all work basically the same. If she's been using the DM500/7020 then whatever you put in front of here she shouldn't have an issue with.

    I don't think any image is better over any other in terms of ease of use.
    All the buttons on the remote will always do the same thing with any image.
    Just tell her she's got to bite the bullet and go with the times besty, it's not all that different from the DM500. She'll just have to press the up or down arrow to get the channel list instead of the 'OK' button.

    More seriously, I have been amazed at the number of people who just can't seem to operate through any interface but the Foxtel one.

    I haven't looked into it seriously but was even toying with the idea of a simple programmable remote with some of the main functions clearly marked. I doubt that even this would work!

    I envy your 2 year record.
