Where is the Multi-Media function on the Spacetv ovhd decoder?

[bevan1]

Hi,

So I bought this decoder today and hooked it up. Ovhd is playing but I cannot find the multi-media function. The box states that it has multi-media functionality but no where on any of the menus it is available. This is one of the main reasons why I bought this.

If anyone can plz help it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

What do you want to accomplish? Watch videos from a USB?

Yes. Basically McGuywer. The box states it has Multi-media.

It will be added in one of the next firmware updates. It is not available on the current firmware. I do not have a date yet. Will post as soon as I know.

So they're advertising this device as having "Multimedia Functionality" ...but you'll only get the functionality in one of the future firmware updates

Hi Agree one hundred % with you daveza.

If you Advertise a product having that function it should have it. I see a complaint being lodged with Consumer Protection. This is completely unacceptable advertising.
