I would choose DM500 everytime, Eaglebox HD has no support for images or channel lists, its closed source not Enigma based, it doesnt act as a server only a client.
An EagleBox HD shouldn't be confused with the original Eagle SD Linux based receiver, as mentioned it's closed source - that said though it's a very big jump to say you wouldn't choose the HD version over the SD! It all depends on what you want from the receiver, if you want SD and Linux E1 based and what that offers (and if you've owned them before you'll no doubt already know what that is) then the old SD Eagle receiver (or DM500 clones) are fine, if you want full HD, support for CCcam/Newcamd as client, media playback, multi-CAS card reader with no setup required (other than loading one single patch) and one that card read your offical viewing card even without the need to enter a boxkey on our popular UK card then the EagleBox HD represents fantastic value... The lack of channel editor or pre-made lists is a bit of a downside true, but look at it as £45 for an HD receiver with all this offers!!!
Im with master G on this one, i have never owned the eagle hd but from what i have read they are not too hot. A dm500 running the exellent commando image would be my choice.
Channel list is not a big deal, sure could make my own, only have to do it once...
i assure you you won't do it just ONCE
even when you think you've done it
this box comes back to haunt you again and again without explaination it just does
it fools me
and you must be a fool to have one
im fooled
i would have the dm500, magicbox, eaglebox v1 SD
but not this one
