Hi all
Was hoping for some info on the new kryptview A780 which im thinking of getting, currently using the eurovox ex5000pvr.
Am i right in thinking you dont need to subscribe to vermins basic tv package for this box to work? no you need at least the basic subscription

Would it be wise to switch my broadband from vermin to another provider, any tips on who to use? yes & no as most people are just going with the flow and taking the chance, also it is impossible for your proivoider to know what you are doing without breaking the law themselfs

What is my best option for recording purposes as i will no longer have a hard drive?
Im fairly new to this so apologies for my ineptness.
as there is no recorder on the kryptview your other option is the starview.6 route similar set up situation, the box is only ment to last 12months on the server and then you are ment to replace,
Thanks

if you wish to be on a public share, visible to all, then i would suggest you get a better box at a much cheaper price that is likely to live a lot longer then the kryptview/starview share. get a dreambox high def machine that will be useful for many more years than these other boxes without the threat of sitting on a public share
