Re: buying a budget hd receiver and need help :)

Yep, nobody know when the switch to mpeg 4 will be done, could be in 2 month like 2 years, but still if you get 6 month hd out its well worth it, and your box after the switch will be able to get sd signal or free to air mpeg2,

I own captain 8000HD and the picture quality is amazing even the sd signal is more then clear on some channel you almost cant tell if its hd or sd.

you have a lcd or plasma tv?

For low budget and quality of the picture its worth the 225$ or second hand for 150 to 175$

And on the top of that you have now IKS with that unit( dongle buy seperately), meaning, you are almost never down no more bin to load.
