Review of the Optibox Raptor FTA Receiver

That's awesome news, any way to get a working sat list from about 11w?

They do not know what we want, and different people want different things.
IMO, the best thing to do is build a sat file and give it to them so they can add it to future releases. I think this will be easier than asking them to change what they already have.
 
I'll just set up my own when I receive my optibox anaconda receiver which I ordered using our Legitfta shop.
 
I'm having no issues going into the shop and helped Viper see if we could order an anaconda, went down without a hitch.
 
When I try to enter the shop, this is what I get;

I just have to set permission for members to view the store. It's not 100% ready but will be very soon. this was a test run for Costa, everything is working correct, just a few things to add.

I'll make it so you can see it..send me a PM if you want to make a purchase..
 
LoL. These guys do not quit. I am going through the new file now after checking it for stability.

I see they have added some stuff to the NTSC boot file.
Attached is a picture of the weather forecaster. I will look for other additions. EB

I think they did the weather forecaster right. Enter a zip code for the U.S. and it displays the weather forecast for that zip code. It also recognizes airport codes such as ATL for Atlanta.
I did not know what to do about Canada. They have postal codes such as M4B 1B3. This is not a problem for the Raptor's weather forecaster. It knows where M4B 1B3is located. EB
 
I do not think so. But I believe burn in is a thing of the past. The eqalizer moves to the music so the picture has some movement to it.

Any idea when you will be restocking the Raptor? Just checked your gift shop and it was out of stock.
Would definitely like to try one.
Thanks

Hi eastof111, we should have some Raptors within two weeks, you can order one now if you like, just let me know and I will add one to store for you.
 
Thanks Viper

Has anyone tested this with a Digiwave 8x1 switch yet? Digiwave currently works great with my Openbox S9's but hit and miss with my Sonicview sv8000HD. Can someone check the Raptor's menu to see if it has settings similar to the S9 for cascading upto 16 ports?
Thanks again.
 
There are 16 positions in the diseqc 1.1 setting. I do not have a switch or enough dishes to test this feature.

Another member will be getting a Gekko soon. I expect it to arrive next week. He has a tremendous dish system and I am sure he will be testing the Diseqc 1.1 feature. EB

How thoroughly has the media player been tested on the Optibox receivers? Is there a complete list of formats it will play?

There are only two working Optibox receivers in North America that I know of. I do not have many different types of media formats so I cannot check much. You need to wait a little bit for a good answer on this. Other people will be getting Optibox receivers soon! EB
