Another pretty nifty product they make is the Multiswitch with LAN
Seems no end of linux boxes out these days.... These guys have taken a slightly different approach though, build something new, instead of cloning
This would have to be the ugliest box i've seen since an ItGate though... its dog ugly!

Looks good feature wise.Buy one and do a write up for us all. I wonder if there is a 7mhz bandwidth setting for Australian terrestrial?? I souldn't see a manual on their website either.

Yes, it sure is feature packed, but once again, just another new kid on the block...
Time will tell... although they are pretty well supported in the UK.
The manual you see in the video, is one of the best, well printed manuals i've ever seen for a linux box!
The Apps have a nice OSD too.....
There are now many other boxes with the exact same features too, the Amiko Alien 2 HD Linux Spark Triple Tuner 2xDVB-S2 1 x DVB-C/T for one
I'm not at all surprised there are a bunch of new players now trying for a slice of the Linux Box game.... perhaps not much in the Australian market, but if you got the right mix of features and support in Europe, you'd stand to make quite a bit of money being the next Dreambox or Vu+.... but, just as many die trying

that multi switch does look interesting , cant find much detail on it though
dont say linux if i wanted it id install it
Yeah, reminds me of the Old Networking days, before twisted pair.
Thank god thats over
Makes you wonder how well it would work though?
If it also added VHF/UHF... it would be one very busy RG6
But perhaps a i solution where running extra cables is proibitive

The 4.2.2 feeds aren't listed, something that the azbox seems to have a monopoly on. But $ for $ they look good.
