    AZBOX stop updates for azboz minime

    No offense but have you ever worked for Microsoft? Always telling everyone how great it's "going to be". Anyway, I've had my elite for almost 4 years now and it does what I want (with the exception of blind scan). I've learned to live with the warts and any updates for it would come as a...

    AZBOX New firmware version 0.9.5402 for AzBox Elite, Ultra, Premium and Premium Plus models

    I had the same issue with my elite, I tried reverting back but had a host of issues. To solve the issue remove the priority manager plugin, something in it screws up the elite. I didn't bother trying to figure out exactly which part locked it up after recording (seemed to lock up after 1 hour...

    History Gone?

    In my opinion FTA is great for News, Sports feeds, and channels that are categorized as "esoteric". The shows/movies that can be seen on regular cable and pizza dishes can be viewed by downloading the content. (using torrents/eztv etc etc.) If you have lousy internet connectivity it maybe...

    AzBox HD Premium Internet traffic

    Not a problem, what you can do to try to satisfy your curiosity is to change into the /DISK2 directory and run tcpdump with a "dot" "slash" in front of the command i.e. cd /DISK2 ./tcpdump you may have missed the fact there is a . before the / Anyway if I'm every in Panama I'll take...

    AzBox HD Premium Internet traffic

    ...type 'ls -alFi /DISK2/tcpdump' my tcpdump file listing looks like the following: 51 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1191163 Nov 20 18:13 tcpdump* Note the file size and permissions for /DISK2/tcpdump should be the same. To be 100% sure we have the same file, find the md5sum hash with...

    AzBox HD Premium Internet traffic

    You are getting close, the * means that it's executable. You could try to change to the directory first before trying to run it. Make sure that you have the ./ before the program name. This means 'just run from the current directory' i.e cd /DISK2 ./tcpdump -i eth0

    AzBox HD Premium Internet traffic

    When I installed it I copied it to an external USB drive. Then I ssh'd into the azbox. Copied it to /DISK2 Changed it to be executable 'chmod 755 tcpdump' Then ran it with 'tcpdump -i eth0' You may want to filter out your ssh session when viewing the packets. '/DISK2/tcpdump -i eth0 | grep -v...

    They probably use apache virtual hosts at hp42.hostpapa.com so I guess we are out of luck... thanks anyway.

    Azbox and internet connections

    Web browsing using the azbox is an exercise in futility anyway. It's way too slow and useless IMHO.

    Azbox and internet connections

    The Azbox uses rdate (part of busybox utilities) to sync the time and it's tcp port 37. If you didn't change the default time server it connects to time.mit.edu Having said that. Rdate is rather antiquated and for me I needed to setup my own time server since my ISP blocks tcp port 37 and the...

    Well TitanTV just ticked me off!

    You can stop the adds by adding a rule to your firewall/router to block all 174.132.0.0/16 addresses. This seems to take care of the pesky adds. It only gets rid of the "suggested links from yido" stuff though.

    OLED/AMOLED

    At the very least it should make the older plasma and LED screens a better price for the consumer. A 720p big screen with the proper input signal is still amazing to view. I still own a plasma EDTV (420p) and with a high def signal the picture is amazing. The first generation of "anything" I...

    Got a hot AZbox?

    Every time I touched the top of the azbox I keep thinking it's getting too hot. It's an Elite and does not have an internal fan and the power supply produces heat as well. I thought of adding a PC fan in the case but then I had an idea that one of those laptop cooling fans would maybe do the...

    where has AMC 6 gone?

    One time my lousy cable job to the SG2100 manged to work the connection loose just enough to loose connectivity. What a PITA that was. I was, however, overjoyed once I found out it wasn't a switch or lnbf.

    Manhattan RS-1933 Thread

    At least we have some honesty here. But I must say I'm not about to jump in with a hope and a dream. Looks like my AZbox will be a keeper for a while... warts and all.

    Manhattan RS-1933 Thread

    Couldn't agree more, only problem is "someone" has to either purchase it (or get it as a demo). I'm so damn cheap it won't be me. :) On the other hand if it gets rave reviews I'd be the first in line.
