So no more dol?

Thats what they say in the first paragraph.Then the next one calls it Dol2.Maybe we will have to wait and see cause it doesn't look like they are sure either lol. The New DOL2 = (MOL2)

 

[Capt.Kangaroo]

So no more dol?

No, the T3 will use Mol2 just like the Formuler Z8

 

[Bkman2020]

I saw the demo it's not the same as dol, mol is more polished.

Mol2 is nicer and runs great.

And The VOD Section Is Also Cool

The box is fast!, I just tested it out over the weekend and its blazing!. Mol2 is way better than dol2. Channel changes are within 1 second or less. The PPV section was still not working. Might be in progress I think.

What I did notice is that when watching the boxing fight over the weekend 455 would freeze, then I would switch to 456 and nothing. All the channels were black. I would turn off the box and back on and then it works great. There might be a buffering bug with 1080P streams or higher quality streams. Can anyone verify this? Maybe I did not give it enough time to reload or something...

 

[worlok15]

Yes They Do Have To Fix The PPV On This Box. Besides That This Box Is A Keeper

so z8 is same as t3 ? is that true

 

[crazed 9.6]

so z8 is same as t3 ? is that true

yes, almost the same except they use their own separate firmware updates.
Otherwise the same, yes.

The Z8 with the MOL2 has been available and tested for 4 or 5 months now I think. which has given them time to have worked most of the bugs out now, any that mattered anyway.
Not only is the MOL2 an improvement but the User Interface and the box setup is been revamped from previous models too.

 

[Marley]

you run z8 ?i know cap has one and he likes it

 

[samcook]

so z8 is same as t3 ? is that true

Yes and even all the previous boxes are the copy of each other.

But with this one, they going have this possible to record on one channel and watch another channel or YouTube, Netflix etc which I think Z8 hasn't announced it or not even sure whether Z8 will receive that update or not...

may Z9 will do it

And + 1 another new feature on Z9 and then you'll see the T3 prime coming soon and so on....

So better buy T3 and start watching.... I think this box has everything you need and its very fast compared to other DL boxes.

 

[crazed 9.6]

you run z8 ?i know cap has one and he likes it

yes, I was part of the alpha/beta testing that took place for about a month before they released the model.

One important improvement with the T3 will be seen in how it handles m3u playlists.
Those that do use these m3u playlists, will enjoy how the T3 or Z8 is setup for Playlist functionality

I know Dreamlink are one of best have few of them never had z8 and what i hear about the T3 this should be a fine box to get like all other ones would truly like to see how it handles 4k with hdr

 

[worlok15]

Never Tried Z8 But I See The Specs Are Almost The Same Except For Their Names

 

[Marley]

lets keeps this as t3 section dont want high jack it but like say again would luv to try a t3 out and all new goodies coming out software wize

 

[kronic187]

I know Dreamlink are one of best have few of them never had z8 and what i hear about the T3 this should be a fine box to get like all other ones would truly like to see how it handles 4k with hdr

Yes its fast. I went from a T1 PLUS to this and its Day and Night. For anyone with boxes that are not T2 Prime, T3, Z8 or Z7+ I recommend this ASAP. Will give you less headaches...

I have notice with my T2 / Prime, whenever I reboot it and after the portal loads, I sees EPG being downloading on the top right corner
But with T3, its not happening and I usually EPG not appears until I start watching the channels.

Does any one notice this ?
