Could you guys please go onto the DSTV forum :
http://forum.dstv.com/showthread.php?t=10394
and express your disappointment that the app does not work on jailbroken devices. They are of the opinion that VERY few people have jailbroken devices. If they see many of us expressing our disappointment, maybe the next update will be compatible with jailbroken devices.
Thanks.

I got the Drifta as a birthday present yesterday and must say i am fairly happy with the device...
The quality of the feed is satisfactory and as i mainly want to use it for watching sport, the channels it has are perfect for me..
My only frustration is that i have lost pairing with the device about 3 times in the 24 hours and i have had to reset the device 4 times as well..
Not sure if i have a faulty unit or if the device is just sensitive to other Wifi hotspots etc in the area...
From what i understand the reason they have chosen the channels they have are do to the fact that most of them are produced locally and as such are chaeaper to "buy" than a syndicated international channel.
I wouldnt mind more channels, but the device will really come into play while i am at work and the Cricket and Rugby world cups are on later in the year....

Hey guys
For those of you looking for an updated AND "patched" version of the DSTV Drifta Decoder app for iOS that works on jailbroken devices, and is a new version so you get the new fixes/features, here it is!
It gets rid of the annoying "Jailbroken device not supported" error message

Just a heads up from a forum member of ours.
DO NOT UPDATE the iOS Drifta app if you are jailbroken..
