  • When will the NIC driver issues be solved (DB500)?

    Is there a full description on what the issue is? Or is there a list of known-issues of DM500?


    I am considering to buy a DreamBox, but I can not decide which model to buy, since DM500 is much cheaper, I think I would try DM500 if there is no critical bug.


    However, recording is the most important feature for such an open-source supported receiver. If it can not do recording, I can not find any reason not to buy a "normal" receiver.

  • Hello,what is the exact difference when use dm500c and dm7020?

    As far as I know, DM500 does not have USB port.




    The most important thing is that, I heard in this forum that there is a bug in ethernet driver of DM500 which prevents it from streaming fast to PC.


    Does anyone know the status of this bug?


    Since DM500 is nearly half the price of DM7020, does anyone know why DM7020 is worth so much? Which functions is available in DM70xx but not available in DM500? (of course, embedded IDE interface is one of them)

  • Is DM500S worth purchasing?

    hi,



    I am new to DreamBox, I found in forum that there is a bug in ethernet driver of DM500S, which makes DM500S unable to stream fast enough to PC.



    Given that fact, do you think DM500S still worth purchasing?


    I know DM70xx is newer and better, but the price is about twice as DM500. So, it is quite hard to decide.


    Any suggestion is welcome!
