[umgum]

is this innovative box worth getting
i herad it`s down more than it`s up

[joshjess]

I have got one and I am very impressed with it, it did go down last night so did a factory reset and is okay now, all the xxx channels are open, plus Nova, and you can input new keys when they are available. At £139 post free its well worth the investment.

Hi M8

I would have to agree with you on that, it would be nice to have a few key more options available, maybe we will get them in the next update.

Hi All,

Being a big fan of the VisionNet receivers, and recognising the problems with c/s on those receivers, I have just purchased an Innovative receiver.

First impressions are very good. Straight out of the box, I plugged in the network cable, keyed 9906 on the remote, and it started downloading the s/w. About 10 minutes and a reboot later, and ART Sports on 13E was clearing. I then had to key in 8943 to activate the EMU. I went on TP$, and it automatically started downloading the AES keys, with a message saying that it would take up to 3 minutes (in reality it was about 1 minute).

ORF and SRG work AU. I found that the Prem key downloaded was up to date, but D+ needed updating - key 6262 on the remote and the key manager comes up.

I have so far scanned on 19E, 13E, 7E, 5E, and 1W, and the following packages clear:-

Astra 19E
C+NL (all except ****)
Prem (EMU)
Arena 1 - 6
D+ (EMU)
ORF

Hotbird
Redlight
***View
MCT
TP$ (AU)
ART (all - not just sports)
Nova
RTVi – Detski, Nashe
Zee / ARY / ETC / B4U
SRG

Sirius 5E
Max TV


The box is a lot more compact than my VN8000S, and the C/S is very stable (no freezes so far). I am not sure about the motor control (this is a known issue - it is a bit erratic). I purchased the box for 109GBP - 160EUR

I am glad you are now an official convert m8 happy colours! Regards N.

Hi Neil,

I am not sure convert is the right description. There is room for both receivers (and a few more) in this house

By the way, what do you recommend for easy channel editing? At the moment channels are all over the place. Ideally I would like to find an editor, and even better a channel list.

Also, are there any other packages clearing on other sats that I have not scanned? I think I saw that Orbit (8W), and DigitAlb (16E) clear. I guess Cabo on 30W will clear with the EMU.

Cheers

M8 I have never sorted out my channels and if you leave the search in its sleep function on it will double,triple and even quadruple store the same channels and then you have reached your 4000 max, there is a channel editor out there if you need it shout and i will post it. Digitalb was scuppered a long while ago (by a disgruntled card seller ) Orbit should be open via server. Regards N.

Thanks Neil,

I remember there was a forum that specialises in the Innovative (and I signed up), but I cannot remember what it was so any reminder would be appreciated - via PM if not allowed on here.

thanks mate.

I believe it can but you will have problem viewing it in the UK, unless you have 2.4m dish!

Can you advise me of a shop or, link to view to purchase this box.
normal auction site or speak to board sponsor!

approx £130 -£150 including delivery!
