thank you

Re: DM 8000 Extra Tuners

You can add any combination of satellite, cable or Terrestrial Tuners on the DM 8000. Read the manual for more info.
On amazon you can find a #Dream-Multimedia Dreambox DVB-T Tuner Modul# for DM800se & DM8000. But be carfull because not all tuner can be mount on your Receiver.

Hello mate

Of course you can

You have to buy a DVB-T Tuner Module for your box.
The cost for an original tuner is about 50 Euro.
I tried a search in China's stores but I found nothing.

Best regards

why not my friend?
For someone whose tv is without T-tuner and don't want to have 2 different devices , one for sat channels and one for terrestrial channels.... Yes , it's worth.
A good decoder for terrestrial channels costs about 30-40 Euro.
I prefer to give 10 Euro more for a dreambox T-tuner.
In this way , I will have an all in one system.

When you select a satellite receiver you need to pay attention to the fact in what standard terrestrial TV broadcasts in your area, it may be DVB-T and DVB-T2, as well as audio in the MPEG-2 and MPEG-4.

I think that there are only DVB-T tuners available for DM boxes. DVB-T2 is not supported yet as far as I know.

You are right

I read somewhere that DMM have no plans to make DVB-T2 tuners at the moment.
so, we have only DVB-T tuners.

correct but on the other hand with less money you get another devices that you can use separately. Anyway i think most of those are sold to people that like to use them for sharing lock terrestrial channels.

I didn't know that

How can be done that?
In the same way as cs for sat channels?
Also I want to ask, can you unlock with this extra tuner , some channels by using keys?

yes they try but is a lot harder than sat channels, what most of them do is streaming the cannel only when a live game is up. i never saw what they use to sent the stream but to watch it you need a powerful HD receiver and some special settings.

Re: DM 8000 Extra Tuners

Re: DM 8000 Extra Tuners

four dvb-s2 tuners will find exactly the same number of channels as just one dvb-s2 tuner
