Hello everyone, I'm a new user. I was looking for a way to record TV programs (Swiss Cablecom) and I heard about Dreambox.
Being completely (and I mean COMPLETELY 
) ignorant about this, I'd like to ask you people something.
Can I use the Dreambox to only record programs? I already have a working cable subscription, but no device to actually record my TV programs.
If yes, is the Dreambox DM 600 S a good way to only use it as PVR?
hi,
I'm not sure but isn't Swiss Cablecom a cable provider?
Well DM 600S is a satelite reciver......
For cable there is the DM 600 PVR C
Wenn looking on the Swiss Cablecom web page I see that most channels are in HD
I think the old E1 boxes like DM 600 C are not HD capeble, so not the best box in ourtimes
Further if there is a card needed for your channels, then you also have to look how/if it is supported, the DM 600 C has only a card reader, no CI slot.
Thus you have to look for CAM SW, which is a not supported topic on this board
But YES, the DM 600 PVR C can record if you install a 2.5' HD
I confirm that. Swiss Cablecom is a cable provider, not a satellite provider. The basic package (basic channels) of Cablecom are not encrypted. Therfore, you can use any Dreambox with a DVB-C tuner to record. But, I strongly recommend a HD box because there are not many SD channels left on Cablecom. Forget your DM 600 S. Even for satellite the DM600 (C or S) is not longer appropriate.
