Doh and I only just ordered today thinking they would be here this week.

Is this box significantly better/worth the wait over the mutant HD51?

[dlmlus]

Sorry to post this, but Octagon have informed us that new stock has been delayed by approx. 1 week. Looks like delivery to us is going to be end of next week (to be confirmed).

Not your fault, Guys.
Its out of your control.

Keep up the good work

There's really only one person who can answer that, and that's you

Thanks for the info, we'll check with them tomorrow for another update.

I'm really interested in purchasing this box but since I'm new to this and it seems as though it's gonna have some teething troubles, I'm content just to wait for a little while.

Cant order mine to end of next week so it don't affect me really sorry to all those that that were hopping to have it for the weekend

On the flip side it gives em more time to get any driver issues sorted

Likewise bassethound. Will be ordering next week.

Reason I'm not opting for the mutant is Im Looking for the remote to be of superior quality than that of the mutant HD51.

I am confused.

Why do all these vids of the Octogon, showing multistream services state that it's DVB-S2X ?

According to King of Sat and Lyngsat, these services are not S2X, they are just normal S2

They're not are they, if you want to read it like that then channels are not 4k either, it's just a full description of the SF4008,

I agree though If 'receiver or STB' was added to the end or some punctuation or underscores in the line it wouldn't be so ambiguous

I guess, every video i've seen, i've read it as them showing off Multistream on dvb-s2x channels lol.

It was only when I was looking on KOS that I noticed, they were not doing that.

I wonder why they have not posted any video's of any of the dvb-s2x channels though.

[maxben]

They have

Ahh nice, i've not seen that vid before
