I guess it's hard to be patient. The Captain team seem to be among the later ones to come out with support and newer files. In over a month, I was up and running a total of about 5 days.

Trying to hope for the best...

Re: captain team...where are you guys????

Captain have good product, but the coders for this unit leave much to be desired.

It might be time to ditch your units and get a unit that has a more responsive team looking after your interests.

Perhaps, Viewsat (but not Xtreme) or Sonicview (i.e., the SV4000) or even an nfusion, if uptime is something you find appealing

Re: captain team...where are you guys????

Hmmm.... just picked up one from a frustrated user - guess I understand why he was willing to part with it. -

I will be patient and hope tat Team Captain can get it together.

Re: captain team...where are you guys????

It has been 4 days since Captive works is out with files and the rest came out 2 days back but I think captain teams is waiting for DN to go blank again SO WHY WASTE THEIR PRECIOUS TIME....What a good support we are getting from the creative team of CAPTAIN...it SUCKS....I am gonna buy VIEWSAT or Captive works ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Team Captain seems to have dropped the ball for sure.

i hope not.their units rock!
if they can step up their support they could be huge.
the 7100 going for about 119$ for example is worth i think around 170 or so,whatever the viewsat ultra goes for.its a sweet system.
but support is key.

Re: captain team...where are you guys????

I love my 8000 HD, but if they want to sell more boxes they must supply better support. Go Captain Coders Go

Re: captain team...where are you guys????

A friend from work sold me one for $80.00 then sold his other two. I can see why. on top of that i have two Magnum 3300's. Those are even worse. They've been running on manual key changes for a a month!

Thumbs up update from Team Captain

We are currently working as hard as we can to produce a stable fix. Although most of these fixes will be short lived (which applies for all FTA STBs out there) we have been holding out to produce a more stable fix for our box. We just want everyone to know we are working on it and we will update you all once we have something stable to release; which shouldn’t be too long from now

Thank you all for your continued support

Team Captain


Cheers H

Re: captain team...where are you guys????

I hope what you guys "THE CAPTAIN TEAM" are saying is true and not another excuse. We can wait but as long as we know that support is on the way. No doubt the receiver is good but the support we get is frustrating and we feel like left out from the race. I hope we can get a better result soon.
