Best HD receiver for testing

[reaven]

am looking to get an HD receiver which is easier for testing the 6000 or is the same as get an 811

6000 is good for beginners if you can get one. 811 is not that difficult either if you good with soldering !

[reaven]

am good at soldering but what about the advantage like testing methods cause 6000 use card and 811 is cardless so you can only use avr-x on 6000 and on 811 an iso programmer i think, so what methos is easier in terms of programming and re-programming in case of a hit for example?

if i choose the 811 where i can get the info for testing i mean like solder points ect..!
thanks

If the 811 you get is not an ex-sub unit it is useless as far as I know as you can't JTAG them. The 811s I sell are already modded and have the interface card installed.
Read www.bellexpress.vu/311.html the programming is the same except the tier list should have the HDTV tiers ( will update that how to this weekend)
The 6000 is nice as it works with AVR-X cards and ROM102 card and is not in danger of being ECM-ed.

Watch retailer chat on ch 999 for once and see what they plan on supporting

wow, freakin 811 units are much cheaper than 6000, probably cus they are a pain to modd. I wouldnt mind if I had the know how.

[reaven]

thats why I was asking cause the 811 is way cheaper than the 6000

-so Mili with the 6000 i cant get ecmed so i dont need a lock ?
and I would be able to get HD channels too ?

The 6000 was never ever targeted for an ECM. The 811s I sell already are modded and have the card opened and ready rock and roll and yes they are cheaper and faster. Both get HDTV channels from 110 and 61.5 birds.

Does anybody know where one can get info to modd these bad boys. Soldering points, etc..no offense Milli, yours still a little steep for me. Ima cheap bastard.

[reaven]

yep the 811 seems like a cheaper way for testing so the question is where I can found a guide for work with this unit solder points, step by step progrmming guide, ect...

[reaven]

another thing when the HD channels change to Mpeg 4 can i still be able to watch the old HD channels or all the channel are going to change encoding if so when , in a few days months or years ??

--Thanks Mili

Is the 811, or other boxes, MPeG4?

That was a sad day. I remeber it well I was walking in the door after a long hard day at work and the news on every channel was ....wait that was the day JFK got shot......It was that extra ppv string that got us at the end of the day is no lock installed.

Hey now that it is over I hated those fuckin remotes for web tv.

6000 still the rawdog as far as ecm goes but who knows whats fixing to happen.

and no the 6000 is not mpeg4
