  • ive never seen a box like that . cant you have a dvd player seperate to the box ? do you have connectivity issues ? .


    Thanks for the reply.
    It is for my elderly grandfather who struggles with electronics at the best of times. We have tried to have a separate dvd player and a separate tv receiver, but he struggles to switch to the different TV inputs (i.e. the different HDMI inputs) using the remote control.

  • iv used one of these before very good space for hard drive and dvd drive, sits under a stb and plugins into the usb, also has extra usb ports


    works with enigma2 as well

    Thanks very much for the reply. I didn't even know these things existed! I have just ordered one now to have a play about with and see if I can cobble something together. Although I know that the first thing will be that with the introverted DVD open button on laptop DVD players, he will struggle to open the DVD player!
