Sure, that's why I am interested in this way.
But if it also means that I won't have e.g. the unencrypted PVR available, then it's simply useless... at least for now.
To be honest, from the USER perspective is the whole SamyGO thing simply not worth it...
I mean, don't get me wrong, I really adore all the work you guys do and all the knowledge you have and use for the hacking!
But as a user I am just not ready to wait months, hoping that MAYBE somebody will get lucky and something will start working...
The Samsung firmware and it's features are incredibly limited, slow and stupid (can't have DVB-C _AND_ DVB-T channels at the same time because that stupid TV has only one tuner... can't display the guide without stopping the recording :-O... 99,99% of the SmartHub apps are useless and stupid crap comparing to their HTPC counterparts... etc.) and ABSOLUTELY can't compare with the capabilities of even a simplest HTPC running MediaPortal or similar thing...
So, my advice to all the desperate users - get a HTPC, hook up as many tuners as you want - being it DVB-C, DVB-T, DVB-S, ATSC, or whatever - to be able to record even several shows at the same time, connect it to your home network natively without the need for virtual USBs, etc... and ENJOY the endless possibilities without hacking, disabling firmware update, fiddling with scripts and other crazy stuff!
Heh, sorry, this is pretty offtopic here, but I just had to say it... :-\
