    Yeah I open the box that hangs 15 minutes ago and I got a shock as these small boxes. The switch Mode power supple is one side and the main board smaller than a Packet of Fags.

    Go for it.!!!

    1/ Yes one 3 Pin socket spare possible for upgrade
    2/ 5 Pin for the the front display plus others (or arse about for the front USB)
    3/ pins for I think the front USB
    4/ 2 Pin for the 12Volt DC power board.

    Now that Ebay USB to TTL Adapter can you pick one of them?

    A matter of Interest

    The Skybox A1 on HDMI does not show a logo

    The SkyBox A1 on Composite using the RCA leads shows the Logo and after that it Hangs

    Austech did a recovery rollback (eg: system restore) to recover the accidental deletion of some threads.

    As a result, some posts made yesterday were lost in the process.... yours was probably one of them.

    Hello guys, I know this post is a bit old but wondering what file you are using with OpenBox X5 that autorolled the PV Keys, I have OpenBox X5 with AlphaBox SoftWare but it doesn't autoroll or I did something wrong in the settings and ended up with a disable autoroll. Thanks in advance.
