Acebox dvb-s2 receiver

[mountaineer]

Not sure what you mean. It has youtube, weather, iptv, games etc. i think you can unlock some stuff by entering some codes, but that is on the site I gave I think. i think they call it super settings.
I don't want to mislead people...it is not the greatest receiver of all time...but for 40 bucks I think you can do a lot worse spending a lot more.

Here is another site that has more info...it is spanish or Portuguese and google translate isn't the best but:

Funbox firmware will not load. I ran into a problem with the channel editor. It loads the files, but puts channels on wrong sats. For instance it changes channels from C-g16 to C-G28 and when you load it back in it stays that way. Thank goodness I made a backup before editing. Izibox firmware is pretty good. A lot better than the acebox it comes with. One thing that needs fixing is that it lists the sats when you call them up to change to another one in the order they were scanned not in the order by location. Overall I'm very pleased with the box. i will continue to work with the channel editor and see if I'm doing something wrong.

I found the answer to one problem....there is no sat button and the stop button listed sats all out of order...but the slow button works perfect, it is in essence the "sat" button. Makes it much more convenient. yes the box has youtube, and the adult ones as well.
Also if anyone needs the satlist I made with channels..let me know. I really am starting to think even more highly of this box. let me know when yours comes in rrobb, I can probably save you a ton of time with a few tips.

Thanks for all your inputs. I'm losing track on this post. Are you loading izibox or other firmwares on a iSmart m100?? or did you received other brand?? There are some different brands mentioned , Thanks!

[mountaineer]

No it is not the M100. It is the generic acebox. M100 firmware , channel editor etc will not work on Acebox/izibox..even though they seem to have the same processor. The generic acebox has terrible firmware on it. I tried all kinds of firmware including m100 etc. Only izibox would load and work...it is much better firmware. Really a good little box especially for $40.
