    Yes Azbox does support NTSC.

    I seem to have read elsewhere that the AZbox does not handle HD transmissions with croma 4:2:2, only SD...so not able to handle all 4:2:2 transmissions. Anyone to confirm?

    You need to set the HD Flag to clear HD channels in 4:2:2.

    Click on the Menu button and then select add HD Flag and the image will come.

    Are you sure that you open the HD trasmission in 4:2:2 mode?

    I have read in various forum that it does not open feeds 4.2.2 dvb-s2 (HD) !!!

    it can show a feed 4.2.2 in dvb-s2, in this case I will buy AZbox hd.
    Thanks

    From a Spanish AZ forum [thanx to escu, translated using an online translator!]:

    The machine was tested by my friend, reported their results

    feeds on dvb-s and dvb-s2: l'azbox works correctly, there is no difference, that depends on the tuner that is fully dvb-s and s2

    feed in dvb-s2 4:2:0 SD: ok
    feed in dvb-s2 4:2:2 SD: ok
    DVB-S2 feed in 1080i HD 4:2:0: ok
    DVB-S2 feed in 1080i HD 4:2:2: ko

    the negative test was carried out with the HD ELITE AZBOX this feed:
    10/04/2009 08:57 PM Submitted by yosssi
    NSS 7 (22.0 ° W)
    11689 H 15000 - MPEG2 4:2:2
    Sport - Golf
    Masters HD (dvb/s2)

    is thought that the problem depends on the chipset, a chipset Sigma, just as it is used for streaming digital media reader Popcorn Hour: The small Popcorn Hour is perfectly compatible with the video in SD and 4:2:2, in HD, only 720p format, but is not compatible with the 4:2:2 HD 1080i

    I do not know if something has tested the same feed with different outcome

    if the problem is real, I do not know if it can be solved with new firmware

    If so go hassle and go with great difficulty that we were going well with this deco,, hope if anyone knows more of the item says something thanks
    So, some HD formats are OK, only one isn't. Not bad for a Beta Stage box, I would have thought. Actually, quite promising!

    I trust in your words but I would like to ask you when I hunt a feed 422 dvbs2 HD. I'll be ready to inform you when I can get one and then please test it and inform us.

    thank you

    It does 4:2:0 HD right now but future firmware could decode 4:2:2 so we just need to wait. Probably new Sigma driver or bug fixes with current code. At least we know developers are working on it.

    It can open dvb-s2 4:2:2 feeds!! BUT...it seems to be hit and miss.

    Some s2 4:2:2 feeds open but not others. The type of encoder used by the broadcaster has a bearing.

    Hopefully, a fix will be issued.

    This is very interesting - When can we really expect blind scan though to search for these 4.2.2 feeds ?

    After all we've seen I think it's very unwise to say "when"... even when you do know it is coming...

    So, I can only say: I have a complete confidence that eventually it will come...

    One thing after the other, they will all come to the agenda...

    The deadline is June/July for FW mark 1.

    So far it's 0.9.x. Still Beta stage!!!

    From what says in the last firmware (0.9.2032) release notes:

    1) We have planned with this release launch fixes for RGB, 4.2.2. HD contents, HE-AAC audio, however for this we need switch completely SIGMA driver, at moment we need some more time to test this new driver carefully.
    We are very hard to make it work correctly on next days.

    Regards.

    Hello All,

    I am a big tennis fan and would buy this box, however I just need to confirm if anyone has been able to watch tennis dvb-s2 4:2:2 feeds? I am unsure whether I need to wait for a new release of software?

    Can anyone advise?
