    Not listed anywhere on WoS, which suggests to me they have stopped selling them. I'm only going on other receivers that are out of stock on WoS but still listed.

    Hi
    I bought mine on May 22, 17. I used TM 5400 Cl+USB for nearly a decade. But specifications impressed me. I am going to have motorised dish for the new receiver as soon as I am familiar with its functions. In their Edmonton head office, I had seen its performance and believe me there is hell lot to learn before you fully enjoy it. So far I am going through the User's Manual, which is slightly an unfriendly tool as compared to TM's earlier publications, to learn its scope and dimensions. It has a lot to discover.

    My first Linux box! Running on a motorised dish, one cable, OpenVix loaded. No issues to report so far. I'm watching on a 720p plasma (!) but the picture is stunning, even on SD channels. I've recorded a few shows too with no issue. All in all, a fine piece of kit. 1-sec standby-to-on, channel switching is lighting fast. I'm impressed.

    Hi guys, i have not been on in a while but i just spotted this box and thought i would come here to see if there was any reviews and i found this thread...5 stars

    Anyway got a couple of questions if ok.. it looks great value and i think its just what i need, i,m not bothered about sky at all but the single sat tuner will be handy for foreign sky stuff which i assume will work alongside the catv tuner as long as i adapt the channel list and configure the tuners correctly?

    Wanting box with a fast processor so this seems like a good choice, i,m also wondering if any 4k sport content has been tried on any box for that matter on ie 19.2.

    I also noticed some people recommend another box here but advice would be great if i,m choosing the wrong one, the fixed cable tuner is fine as thats mostly what i will use it for which brings me to my last question= i noticed 2 inputs in the picture so does the cable tuner have a twin tuner inbuilt on the box.

    Many thanks in advance

    I watched FTA football on 42e in 4K.

    The Twin 4K comes in two varieties, one of which is a twin Cable and single Sat. (Ignore number of DVB-C connections on twin cable tuners as they are internally split.) The pictures on the sponsor's site do not reflect the twin cable one properly, The RF out is not show.

    Thanks

    Oops, same video that was posted earlier. My adblocking blocked the video.

    I may be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure that the SF4008, HD51 and Twin 4K use the same chipset. They are restricted to a maximum of 3 tuners. So you cannot add USB tuners if your total number of tuners has reached three. If this information is incorrect, please report the post and we can edit it.

    Limit is 3 for internal tuners. USB tuners can be added to more than 3.

    And then the tuners can be accessed individually, but not used at the same time (that is currently the case for the SF4008 anyway).

    Huevos, Octagon made a great play about supporting 8 virtual tuners for Satip, is this using the same interface for usb tuners or totally different?

    I bought from the rainforest. Had a replacements and returning both. They keep locking up, no matter what image I use.

    Interestingly they also reduced the price each time. Now Ł37 cheaper since I've marked both orders as return.

    Never has so many problems with a piece of hardware. And just to confirm I'm a tech junkie and work in tech. I know what I'm doing but these boxes don't work for me and my pretty standard hardware. Lg oled ysp-2700.
