Can DreamBox withstand this in the future???

sure it can:

Delay	1 minute
Buffering time	2~30 seconds

Who wants that

[tundewonder]

yeah, soon sopserver will handle DVB like DB. What do u think?

[Sjaaky]

Well it is a completely different product.
It can be used by ip-tv providers. As such, it is a competitor to satellite television, if they can provide comparable image quality. And not to the dreambox in particular.
I don't see the need to buy this server as a consumer. You'll still need a device with a remote control to attach to your television.

Alright, let us imagine that this same server can handle STB like DB.
