I was asking because of what was posted in that 1st post... If that Jynxbox was hooked up to a server why cant it be hooked up to one of the Servers from here...?!? It has the capability to enter information doesn't it, I mean it can be connected via Ethernet or is it by RS-232 onlly...?!?
It is not an android, it is not even a Linux. It is just a normal fta receiver with IKS functionality (in fact it is the Chinese knock-off model really)
They first cloned the JynxUltra HD but after using modified Jynx firmware for awhile (which is a definition of a clone), the clone guys started producing their own firmware, which in my view then makes it a 'knockoff' and no longer a 'clone' ...
but I degrees
It could theoretically connect online to a server, yes. It can in fact connect to an IKS server. But without an Android Operating system or Linux OS such as that Dreambox is, then it can not use that connection for anything except communication of data..... and not the actual channel stream.
-With IPTV, the channel stream and all other data comes thru internet connection.
-With 'IKS' (satellite), the channel stream and some other functional data comes thru the dish antenna and other data comes thru the internet. (These boxes CAN NOT stream channels thru internet because of the OS limitations).
Dreamboxes can do both and more. They are using a Linux Operating System.
It can be quite daunting and is quite in-depth to set things Dreamboxes up, nothing like setting up an Android (like a Dreamlink T2 for instance).
Some Dreambox models can even act as a server, (this came especially handy in a University type atmosphere, where students and faculty could connect to a network, so to speak)
They are full of abilities one does not even know or even imagined about, it's a Linux box
They do not rely on an updated Android version, because they do not run an Android Operating System.
Dreamboxes came long before the Android Operating Systems were seen.
Now, this has to make it clear...no ? .... lol
