Kust has the pansat non HD DVR. You'd have to import your on Integra from a US vendoe, I think.

Try http://www.dvbsource.com for FTA satellite stuff. Its a Canadian site.

If you hold out a few months Coolsat has both hd and hd pvr coming out. Just in beta testing stage at the moment so info is hard to come by

Other than that there are no hd fta unless you go the pc route. As for the Pvr, pansat does make a pvr one but its not cheap!

I do know they are special order items, I asked a few dealer about them, you can get the Quali TV no PVR though, and no full time HD out there really other than PBS, and you will need C-band for most of the HD feeds, the IT910 and IT912 are great units I do know the IT912 even has a OTA tuner, though I do not think you can get those new anymore. Good Luck

Well from what I heard the next Coolsat which is the 6000 (mid March) is not HDTV so when are they planing to release these HD ones?

tdti1 · 2006-03-01, 10:52 PM

Without C-bad there is not really much HD unless you want PBS HD.

I find PVR useless without guide data.

Since PBS is the only HD channel up there it would be crazy for a company to mass produce a HD PVR receiver like that. HD FTA receivers i've seen for $700+ US but hard to find.

If a new coolsat is coming it could be a PVR, but highly unlikely an HD receiver.

http://www.coolsatusa.com/ms2000.htm This is the upcoming hd reciever, MS-2010 IP-STB is the hd reciver and MS-2020 IP-STB will be a HD pvr

Bunkhouse you are correct that the next coolsat the 6000 is not a hd just an improvement over the 5000

Is it just me....or does it look like there is an HDMI port on the bottom of the CS 2000?

Doesn't say a thing about that on the site. Just says 2 USB ports and 2 RJ45 connections. Probably a USB....but those bevels................

TurboTronix · 2006-04-22, 11:38 AM

plus it says on their site that it is mpeg2 compatible...hmm...will this be the first HDTV fta

This doesn't look like it is a satellite box. There doesn't appear to be anywhere to hook up your dish.

The advertisement says it is for IPTV, so I suspect it is not a satellite receiver.
Seems to have the RJ-45 connection for you LAN.

tdti1 · 2006-06-08, 08:19 PM

Rumor has it that a Pansat 7000HD is coming, also nuesat http://www.neusatusa.com/index-1.html I guess we will see who comes first and when.
