Hmmmm...

If that is the standard of the OSD I'm not impressed :(

Compared to many HD boxes, this is a pretty lame interface, a bit like those cheap DVD players you get from Argos/Aldi etc...

One for the boys back in Germany to put on their wishlist m8, I won't be spending £250 on something quite so primitive (and poorly developed, a bit too much German left untranslated). How can you develop such an interesting receiver and load it with such a crap interface...?

I'm gutted :frown:

What a massive over reaction for a brand new receiver, chill out and wait for more info and/or new developments before parting with your money. I'd be delighted if you can find me a better spec box for the same price.

From what I have read, it is not just the interface that does not work...

I am not prepared to spend good money just to be an unpaid beta tester for an unfinished product.

Neither would I but like I said, chill out and wait a while to see how it develops or exercise your right to spend your money elsewhere. BTW, people who are interested in this receiver (like me) may like to know about reported issues, can you quote what you have read for everyones benefit? Thanks.
