Hi guys, upgraded yesterday from a V8S and I have to agree with everyone - what a superb box.
After uploading from scratch and knowing sweet FA about anything, following wooshmans setup guide was superb and easier than I thought it was going to be. I am now up and running using the nice blue skin and it virtually looks and acts the same.
A few questions I haven't figured out the answer to yet, if anyone can help....
1) on legit sly, you can search for a programme using letters on the number-pad on the remote and spell the word you're after - then it comes up with a list of possible matches. very quick process. I haven't figured out if we can do this in the new v3..can we?
2) at the top of the screen is the tab symbols such as home, planner, recordings etc. just like you would do on sly...are these real? I cannot seem to use these icons.
3) Apart form the awesome blue skin and using it generally for tv..... what else is there that is useful? any plugins worth having/getting? I want to fulfil the potential of this box.
4) how can I hook up a separate motorised dish for other European satellite watching? I am married to a French woman and we currently use another separate 80cm dish and box for Astra 19.2e (I think) for French and German stations....wouldn't mind combining the two dishes to the zgemma if possible.
cheers if you can help.
