1 COMMENT

  1. What a pity this Dreambox is.
    Looks excellent, but misses the mark: This is an excellent box, but is clearly aimed at the German market, because of the omission of the CI slot. This means these countries cannot be viewed:

    FRANCE: TNTSAT, FRANSAT
    NEDERLAND: Canal Digitaal
    BELGIUM: TV Vlaanderen, TELESAT,
    Luxembourg TELESAT,
    POLAND: Cyfrowy Polsat, NC+, Orange Polska , Telewizja
    SPAIN: Movistar Plus, Canal Plus
    SWITZERLAND: Kabelio
    ITALTY: TiviSat, Sky
    PORTUGA: NOS, MEO
    And all the others I forgot.

    Germany is mostly FTA, with Sky as an exception. An excellent Dreambox made by Germanns for Germans. As soon as money bites and TV services, like the UK, start encrypting to monterise their platforms ( UK case in point because they will remove the TV licence fee which is used to subsidise their Freesat service on 28.8) then the Dreambox One HD will be even less useful.
    What we need is a version with a CI slot or two, or a Dreambox Two HD with Android.
    Regarding Android: The One HD is running Android version 7 released in 2016!
