AZBOX ME the best receiver for dxers finally?
Szczególnei podoba mi się, jak pod koniec widać zmianę funkcji i drastyczne zmiany czasu (o kilka minut przy kazdej pozycji) :D
Jak dla mnie - skoro poprzednie modele były niewiele warte, to te nowe pewnie też. Jak wiekszości wiadomo, bazuje się na oprogramowaniu juz powstałym (jak w przypadku octagona), a nei robi się wszytkiego od nowa.
Tuner embedded, czyli wlutowana głowica. Więc ani wymienić do testów na coś innego, ani nic.

AZBOX ME the best receiver for dxers finally?
Jakiś tuner musi być tym pierwszym z 16/32Apsk , żeby inni mieli z czego ściągać .
Pogadamy z Lubomirem i potestujemy , wtedy będzie można cokolwiek powiedzieć
o wartości tunera - mnie tylko interesuje to co pod DX ważne - reszty może nie być .

The AzBox Premium Plus currently uses SMP 8634 LF processor.
The AzBox ME will have the newer processor SMP 8655.
Here is some info on the SMP 8655 processor below:
(could not find much info on the 8634 LF to give it a real compare)
Sigma Designs has introduced a pair of set-top box SoCs that run Linux. Powered by three MIPS cores apiece, the SMP8654 and SMP8655 boast accelerated graphics and compliance with HDMI (high-defintion multimedia interface) 1.3, says Sigma.
The SMP8654 and SMP8655, differing only in the latter's omission of Macrovision, are designed to replace the company's "industry leading" SMP8634. And indeed, they appear to be a significant advance on it. Where the older SMP8634 had a 300MHz MIPS CPU and a 200MHz security CPU, the SMP865x chips boast triple MIPS processors, for a claimed fifty percent speed boost, according to Sigma claims:
A 500MHz processor runs the operating system and applications
A 333MHz processor manages interrupts and part of the network stack
A 333MHz security CPU, deliberately inaccessible by external interfaces, manages authentication, key generation, and content access functions
The SMP865x chips offer high definition video decoding, including H.264 (MPEG-4 part 10), WMV, VC-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-4 (part 2). They also support China's home-market AVS (audio video standard). HDMI 1.3 support offers bandwidth to 340MHz, while adding support for the Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD formats used by Blu-Ray and HD-DVD.
Other touted features for the SMP865x chips include:
On-chip flash memory (24K for 500MHz processor, 4K for interrupt/stack processor)
DRM (digital rights management) engines
2D graphics processor including scaling, JPEG and OpenType acceleration
Dual gigabit Ethernet controllers
Dual USB 2.0 controllers
DDR2 controller supporting memory up to 666Mbps
NAND flash controller
SATA controller
Audio I/O
Simultaneous HD and SD video outputs
Sigma did not cite pin compatibility with its previous SoCs, but said the SMP865x chips are software-compatible with them.

AZBOX ME the best receiver for dxers finally?
Good Morning rysiuhelixrysiuhelix pisze:Jakiś tuner musi być tym pierwszym z 16/32Apsk , żeby inni mieli z czego ściągać .
Pogadamy z Lubomirem i potestujemy , wtedy będzie można cokolwiek powiedzieć
o wartości tunera - mnie tylko interesuje to co pod DX ważne - reszty może nie być .
I would be very careful with this new Azbox with what is advertised. It is written that all these data can still change. I myself have an Elite Azbox (for 4.2.2) and I know someone with a premium + (therefore with blindscan) is not really good for us, DXer, when blindscan is launched, it can go shopping and come back (it is also slower than the vitamin in step1, but without the precision of search and not find the sr under SR1500). I am under no illusions. I hope instead that the vitamin will continue to evolve
best regards

That what i ment in my info. they have never ever built any fully qualified software, that can be suitable for linux boxes. They are some kind of pioneers in Sigma (which is good for multimedia CPU), but nothing more. Without other contributors/companies in this area they have no chance to make worldwide success.stephan94 pisze:I would be very careful with this new Azbox with what is advertised.
