I had this only for testing and I'm not impressed. No FBC head, construction that feels cheap, no Wooshbuild support, too expensive as for quality, if you looks something better you have to spend more money maybe for Vu+
Does the OSCAM/CCCAM work using the built in WiFi network? I'm looking to upgrade from my 12 year old TM 5402 but my old receiver only has Ethernet LAN port. I want a new 4K receiver with built in WiFi for OSCAM. I see this receiver has WiFi built in antenna. Will OSCAM connect using WiFi successfully? Also is it an easy to use receiver? I also use Hotbird 13E here in the UK. But I also have Astra 28.2E for Sky UK. Will I be able to connect this to both Hotbird 13E and Astra 28.2E without needing to use an LNB DISEqC switch? Many thanks.
This is an old video, I only had that box for short testing, no company wanted to lend me device for long period of time. And as you see I don’t get any money from people so I have no ability to buy stuff for testing. Overal it is very cheap box with subpar operating system - all different Enigma2 distribution are difficult to configure and they look like created by child hackers who cannot even put their names in attribution for plug-ins. OSCAM/CCAM is software for support CI+ module that is built into the box - it has nothing to do Wi-Fi. I had model specifically for cable not satellite. In this price range you won’t get FCB satellite head so there always be problems with recording and watching at the same time. If you want to use 2 satellites without using multiplexer then you need to have two separate satellite cards and connnect them to converters (standard way or Unicable) Enigma2 allows you to create one list of channels from both satellites however you must do tuning separately, but managing playlist is pain in the ass I don’t know who invented this and I don’t recommend it
@@sebaszwarc Many thanks for your detailed response! But is the problem that you're experiencing only with recording? Could any of these issues been resolved in the last 2 years with a latest firmware update? If I am not interested in recording and managing playlists, would this be a good receiver for general watching of TV channels? 2 months ago I initially bought the AB IPBox 2 from Euroelectronics and had to return it for a refund as OSCAM wasn't working, only MGCAMD was working. And News channels scrolling news ticker was stuttering heavily! I don't have this problem with the Technomate TM 5402. But the TM 5402 that I'm using is too old and doesn't support in built WiFi so I can't connect to OSCAM. So that means I am dependent on a router with 4 LAN ports. What alternative 4K satellite receiver would you recommend?
Nie wiem o jakim software piszesz, każda z tych dystrybucji jest beznadziejna i do tego instalowane są w beznadziejnych dekoderach które mają tylko jeden tuner a nie widziałem nigdy głowic FBC ale do kablówki. I nikt jeszcze nie napisał w jaki sposób ustawić OSCAM by dekodował kilka kanałów na raz, bez tego jeśli próbujesz coś nagrać to inne kanały niż ten nagrywany wyświetlają czarny ekran. Ogólnie nie polecam, miałem sprzęt jedynie do testów i film jest sprzed prawie 2 lat jak widzisz.
What box has the beter picture?
TechniSat TECHNIBOX UHD S or the SF8008? (i know you can do so much more with the sf8008)
No idea
Are you pleased with the Octagon? How's the tuner?

Dobra robota jaki ogólnie software polecasz ?

Ja uzywam openatv i jestem zadowolony. Wyglada trochę nowocześniej niż openpli
Why don't you make videos with english settings so that more people understand it?
Why should I? Everyone else is doing it, I am testing tuner with polish cable for polish people.
