    Baz, Sorry sound like you have had to many beers!
    Lets give this box the low down.
    1st Ths box is no DM800HD it is Client only and will not run any image of enigma, Yes it is linux based but the buck stops there.

    This box is as many have described, cheap and chearfull, You get what you pay for.
    It has little support but it is well put together.

    If you have a very low buget and are able to put lots of time into making your own channel list without the following transponders that will put your box into eternal reboot mode (unplug the satellite feed and reboot then change channel to overcome the problem).

    In my opinion this box is a good buy for anyone that has time to tinker with channel lists and avoid the the frequencys that loop the box in reboot are, 12.110 v, 12.148 h and 12.207 v. (most sport 28.2 SD channels, there are replacements of the channels on other transponders).

    This box has NO ftp or telnet, but there is a channel editor out there to make life that bit simpler.

    The blined scan takes little over 2min`s to compleat, Very impresive the fastest i have seen for 28.2

    The menu is very simple and i do not recomend this box for anyone that likes to pimp there box, (A-Z for example is rubbish).

    All in all, Great price and if you can put the time in and have the skill to use a computer then you will be glad of the skimpy amount you have spent on a STB.

    Just some other names of this STB that are all the same thing with different encloseures:- OPENBOX s9hd, SOLOMEND 800, SKYBOX s9hd and INVEL 800, This box comes in other guizes as well but it is no Dreambox 800hd.

    11.1w power consumption and a reported 0.1w in standby.

    another reason why it's best to either upload the file directly to the forums server or host it on your own account to prevent this type of thing happening.
    My posts contain my own personal thoughts and opinions, they do not represent those of any organisation or group but my own.

    If you don't like what I post, Don't read it.

    SIMPLES.

    This is a modified L53 Dump file, and was released on [10 January 2011]
    This L53_MOD Dump file is based on the latest firmware version [HDS2-11-01-02:0899CMT]

    Included in the L53_MOD Dump file is a multi-satellite channel list [V2.60].
    The channel list default motor setting is: DisEqC 1.2.
    Coverage of the channel list is: 45east to 30west.
    Included in the zip file is a replace.list
    Also included is a constant cw file, which contains active Biss keys, mainly for use on 26E 10E 5E & 4W.

    The channel list can also be used on a fixed dish setup, simply click the Zoom or SatList button, and select any satellite from the data base that you wish to access.
    ================================================== =================================

    What's New:
    A number of new or updated channels on various satellites added.
    Re-organised channel list on various satellites.
    Most non accessable channels removed.
    I believe all the channels that cause rebooting problems, have now been removed.
    To optimize this list & receiver to it's full potential, you will require a full multi-sat coverage cline.
    ================================================== =================================

    Instructions:
    If this is the first time you have uploaded a Dump.file, then you will need to read the following instructions:-
    1 Click Menu -> System Setup -> TV System -> Video Resolution this will return to the default setting of [1080i 60] after each upload, if your TV has a refresh rate of 50Mhz then set the video resolution to [1080i 50] and the picture will become clear now press exit
    Now select Local Time Settings and set it as follows if your located in the UK:
    1 GMT Usage ... ON
    2 GMT Offset .. UTC+00:00
    3 Summer Time . OFF
    now click exit and exit again
    Now select Network Local Setting and if your router supports DHCP then set it to On
    otherwise you will need to configure the settings manually, once you have set it up click Apply then exit
    Finally click CCcam Plug Setting, if you already have an active cccam.cfg file transfer it to a USB Stick insert the stick into the USB connection on the rear of the receiver and click Update Files By USB then select Option 1 in the popup box and click the OK button then click the Yellow button and your cccam.cfg files will be transfered
    Now you need to activate the files, click CCcam Plug Setting then Manage Config Files click Option 1 and select each file in turn and click the OK button when you have a tick next to the files you wish to activate then exit.
    To finish the activation and configuration process you must now reboot your receiver, then once it has restarted all should be okay.
    The channel list included in the HDS2_L53_MOD file, includes the latest L53 multi-satellite channel list, this is by no means a finished list, and is still an ongoing project WITH REGULAR UPDATES.
    ================================================== =================================

    How to add the replace.list file.
    Click Menu -> Network Setup -> MGCamd Plug Settings -> Update Files by USB
    -> replace.list [MGCamd Plug] now click either the OK or Green button to select replace.list and place a check mark next to it, once the check mark or tick is visable click the Yellow button to upload.
    You can then if you wish, check to see if the list has been correctly added, by clicking Manage Config Files and clicking on replace.list if all went well, you will see the following example: X: {{ 1833 } { 1702 }}
    ================================================== =================================

    How to add the Constant cw list.
    Click Menu -> Network Setup -> CCam Client Setup -> Update Files by USB
    -> Constant cw now click either the OK or Green button to select Constant cw and place a check mark next to it, once the check mark or tick is visable click the Yellow button to upload.
    You can then if you wish, check to see if the keys have been correctly added, by clicking Manage Config Files and clicking on Constant cw if all went well, you will see all the keys listed.
    ================================================== =================================

    Anyone may use, or share this modified Dump file, all I ask is that you do not remove, or edit the files included in any way, or add any other extra files, which are mainly spam, giving credit to some obscure web site.
    Of course we are aware of the fact, that some still have a tendancy to ignore the above request.

    Heads up on this you will deffo have to do a factory reset and pick your sats to scan. scan them in order of importance when you run out of space you can then organise them alfabetically then start from scratch and set your favs up. if you install a previous favs it will fill up the channel quota and you will have great difficulty in getting the box to accept new sats to scan. I spent 3 hours on this till we worked out what was wrong.

    OpenBox S9 Modified L53 Dump.file with Channel List [01 February 2011]
    This is a modified L53 Dump file, and was released on [01 February 2011]
    This L53_MOD Dump file is based on the latest firmware version [HDS2-11-01-02:0899CMT]

    If you already have the previous L53_Dump file dated [10 January 2011] loaded, you may if you wish just load the updated channel list.

    I recently bought an Openbox from here -another site . Its worth it for £90 but the HD picture is not as good as my clone DM800.

    Having said that its much better picture quality than a Dreambox 500s ,even on the standard definition channels (due to the HD tuner upscaling). I still think the DM800 is worth paying the extra for
