Hi,when hdtv transmissons begin in mpeg4 can the dreambox be programmed to decode them?Or is it a new stb

new stb.
Why the new stb? if I check the cpuinfo, here is what I get:
-----------------------------------------------------
root@dm7025:/# more /proc/cpuinfo
system type : ATI XILLEON HDTV SUPERTOLL
processor : 0
cpu model : MIPS 4KEc V4.8
BogoMIPS : 297.98
wait instruction : yes
microsecond timers : yes
tlb_entries : 16
extra interrupt vector : yes
hardware watchpoint : yes
VCED exceptions : not available
VCEI exceptions : not available
root@dm7025:/#
-------------------------------------------------------
So, it looks like the box can do it, unless there is something else?
because it's fake.
casi: why fake? that's bull****!
As a matter of fact the 7025 will not be able to decode other things then mpeg2 BUT it is able to show you a scaled mpeg2-hdtv Picture (i dunno if it still works, but it worked in the past) on your SDTV or to stream mpeg2 hdtv.
HDTV ist defenitely no "fake".
ok, let's call it poor man's hdtv

Reichi, When you say it worked in the past, can you please elaborate why it is not working now in the current release? Is there a problem with it? Can you elaborate on scaled mpeg2-hdtv?
Thanks!
I just don't knew for sure if it still works cos' my dreambox is about 100km away now ;).
But every Channel that's sending MPEG HDTV modulated in DVB-S should work.
well, you can watch it as sdtv
So, to be clear, if the signal is in 1080i, will it be scaled to 720 or 480P or just SDTV?
This has been one of the reasons why I bought the box, to watch HDTV ???
Update: I just stumbled over this post: YUV Ausgabe über Scart
it looks like there needs to be a board update to make this work, if I understand correctly with my broken German.
It will be scaled to SDTV.
The 7025 is no and was never meant to be a HDTV-Receiver.
Olove
that's why i called it a fake hdtv receiver
Ok, fair enough. it looks like it can receive HDTV signals but not display it in the same format
So, is there anything on the roadmap for HDTV? I have heard about a 8000 model? What is the ETA on that?
3 to 12 months from now
3-12 months. Hmmm, what makes it 3 and what makes it 12? Is the HW done and only the SW work left or what?
3 because the original statement was summer this year... 12 because reality always wins
The software will be enigma2.
The hardware will be similarly the 7025 but with an extra decoder chip on board for hdtv (mpg4) and hdmi output and some more features (RGB background light for the LCD-Display).
