DM800 clone

i would go for a dm800 clone than a tm box personally myself, tm are not having a good time with linux versions of there boxes, look at the escapade with the tm800hd boxes

The TM-5402HD is a non-linux receiver. Works well with CCcam as a client, check your pm.

no more clones for me. i had a dm600 clone and it was ok but overheated a lot. i have read more probs with dm 800 clones than the tm800 to be honest

audio sync probs with tm800 boxes, no audio sync issues with dm800hd boxes

I think you'll find thats all now fixed

Personally steer clear from clones, I know of many dissapointed people who've had them and packed up in around 12-18 months.

take it from experience dont buy a clone ever they are s**t my dad is new to linux world and he has a clone and he is always complaining about it. but is reluctant to let me buy him a new one as he thinks they are too expensive. but i'm planning on surprising him with one. i hate his clone too

stay away from DM800 clones like your life depends on it. for a cheap cheerful E1 box go for either a TM500 or TM600.

There have been plenty of second hand tm800 on ebay for around £150/160
