    the tuner should come attached per boxes ordered,
    as last 1 i ordered last march came ready to go,
    but just looked at the box there and it doesnt sat dvbs2 or dvbt2 on the packaging
    but as ally said the the dvbs2 has threaded connectors
    and the dvbt2 has the push in aerial connectors

    I was just thinking, I ordered 4 Wetek play about a year ago, and I had to attach all of the tuners myself (like lego).
    I don't think they were separate, but they were in the box and didn't distinguish which was which.
    I presume these ones are the same.
    Just in case, it may save you a bit of time by asking them to mark the ones that don't have DVB-S2 tuners or you could be opening boxes all day.

    - It's easy to tell them apart. The DVB-S2 have screw threads.

    Vision of a limited edition print run. instant fanboy collector's item ... Pi still sealed in the mag on Antique's Roadshow 2115 for squillions of Euro. Tesco ordering in a large batch new week should put the kibosh on that dream!

    Still some fools and their money are easily parted ... I should know, I bought a Pi 1 Model B!

    Sorry now for my ignorance. What is basic terms can this box do. Does it make your computer into a media centre. Is it only for computers. Can it connect to the tv. What's kodi. Sorry I have a very slow internet connection at the moment and researching is difficult.

    It can stream media from local and online sources.
    You can buy media subscriptions (IPTV, netflix, amazon movies, sky go etc..)
    You can also play games and check your email, browse the internet etc.
    It is a mini media centre itself, plug it into you TV, connect to the internet and you are ready to go.

    if you have poor internet it may not be for you.

    If you don't know what kodi is, its definitely not for you.

    have you a computer or a tablet? Download kodi to either first and see how it goes.

    if it suits you, buy a box, i wouldn't waste money until you know its something you want.

    i run kodi on an old dell i5 laptop i have lying around, im getting this box to save on electricity and because its a little smaller.

    What the hell are you talking about, this was not organised by a mod, I only offered to help facilitate it. There is no one making any money out of this, what has happened in this thread has happened many times on boards in the past. If you have a problem with me or any other aspect of this thread, then report it and let those higher up look into what has gone on. Also, if you read back through the thread, you'll also see that another user has done exactly the same thing as I have facilitated and he wasn't a mod either.

    Ah lad, it was a group purchase to save all involved a few quid. Great idea, not sure why you have a bee in your bonnet about it.

    On an unrelated manner, did anyone buy the box from living social in the OP? Its available for about 47 euros now with packaging. Is it worth getting? Never 100% sure about what sort of quality the electronics from those deals sites will be like

    What was the one in the OP? The Leelbox?

    you would be better of going for the one it is trying to imitate.
    The original can be bought for ~ €34 and dual boots.

    It has a biggish community too - More Roms etc.

    I remember the last time I put OpenElec on my PI DNLA streaming would flat out not work, and looking up online it said it wasnt supported. Streaming to OpenElec that is.

    Have Openelec sorted it out yet?

    I can stream to my openelec box, not that pretty of an experience mind you.

    How much is it and what's the waiting period? Is the box pre loaded?

    All the information is in the last few pages. I'm offering the exact same as before. They'll be delivered to Longford and I will distribute from there. Similar to Aquo, I'll deal with postage charges when they actually come, each person can tell me what way they want theirs delivered and they can pay me whatever it is then. I'd say approximately €80 or less before postage.

    Is there many still interested in this, that haven't ordered already? I just caught up on thread, as I hadn't been following as I thought ye were still discussing the op.
