Did you fix problem with freezing on v8 Golden???
I think this must be with higher priority!!!
If it is not fixed, how can your customers use the device???

Testing on the V8 Super Firmware (04/03/2017)
I have channeled through a couple satellites and not once has the V8 super froze or locked up because of channeling too fast.
Very nice improvement of the freezing issue finally! Thanks!!
Recordings appear to also be working on the V8 super with no problems.
So far this new firmware appears to be much better than the others with the tests I have run today.
I believe this one was going in the right direction!

I also updated my V8 Golden.
I find some encrypted channels that stuttered for some seconds now open stable.
Constant Cw is good to have.

V8 new firmware made Malaysian TV channels no sound again.

Why always Malaysia? You don't like Malaysia? I don't.

These are the only nation-owned TV channels that we can watch for free, by crook or by hook, what a pity.

V8 Super new firmware did not change anything, it just got worse.
1. After some time, all keys of BISS disappear.
2. Timer recording does not work.
3. IPTV freezes.
4. The weather forecast does not work (Russia, Novosibirsk).
5. Online movies, half of the applications do not work, and porn applications generally none at all.
6. The remote control will freeze for 1-3 seconds.

1.Biss program, need to import KEY

2. Timed recording, need to be in the current program, the current TP under

3.IPTV new software has removed the invalid link

5. Online movies, half of the applications do not work, and porn applications generally none at all
This question has a relationship with the server!

6.The remote control will freeze for 1-3 seconds

This problem, in that case appears, describe the details, thank you!

I believe there is a problem with that link.
Just go to download section to find the latest firmware update and do not use the link posted here.
That is what I found I had to do also as I saw the same message you did.

I did not want to discount everything you said before going back and seeing exactly what your complaints were.
I have tested the new firmware out on the V8 Super and it does not delete biss keys.

Did you save then import your softcam file like the directions said to?

The remotes do not freeze on any of us here nor is there and more channel freezing issues that has plagued prior firm-wares so much that we had to use a much earlier one just to watch TV here. Now with the latest firm ware V8_Super_V523 there is no more channel freezing.

I would go back to see if there is user error going on before saying this firmware is much worse.

Are you going to find some bug? No doubt there will be as nothing is perfect, but this update is far better than the others IMO.
I can not comment on the IPTV side of things as those features are not used here. That is why I did not quote those but only what has been tested here on the V8 Super.

I got two for 6 months+, golden here, super there
both very good never freeze no matter what version. they both got 1 cccam
but golden suffers from some kind of illness, he has been losing keys once in a while
super very healthy never lost keys
I am satisfied with them because I can watch UFC live every Sunday at Sony ESPN, and HBO
Thanks Freesat!

Chronic freezing type are faulty sets from factory but very few, all brands are like that, normal, you got it you bad luck. Correct procedure is to send back to where you bought it, no point grumble here. Online purchase too costly to return? Then forget about it next time don't do that.
