If that's the case, I'd like to get that hundo back. :)

LOL... Well you did get that fancy remote which is worth something (not a 100 though). That all said the other way to look at it is you still got it way below what he sells them for to everyone else.

The remote is $35, and the package difference is $20. I'm curious as to the real difference between the $449 RG6 Pro and the $529 RG6 Pro Combo pkg w/Channel Up.

Hey guys Magic Box Dave here, sorry I havent been here in a while, been super busy, slammed since launching my new label Renegade Entertainment. The new Renegade RG6 Pro is the best box, the RG6 PRO is the Magic Box and is much different then the other magic boxes that I sold to countless RDP Members, it has everything you want and then some. Much faster, smooth screen transitions and better PAID content.
e
If you guys just want to watch movies and TV Shows this probably isn't the box for you. If you have friends coming over to watch a big UFC Event then you definitely want the Renegade so you can watch it in 1080p HD. You're not going to have to deal with too much, your going to click a button and its just going to work. Ask Dave why he switched his firestick for his old school magic box in his garage, its because this box just works.

Dave and I have been talking about my new RG6 PRO and how far streaming has come since I first pulled out a demo box (the original DigiXstream Box) and showed Dave in his living room. Once he saw its capabilities he bought one instantly. For the most part my box isn't much different then the other OEMs in our family of boxes. That said, Renegade does offer LIVE Customer Service and LIVE Tech Support other OEMs that say 24/7 support are only referring to Facebook support not live support.

River Dave is correct that this isn't a firestickl deal, we have plenty of paid addons that are included in the price of this box. no fees ever after you pay for the box. We pay $150k a month for our Premium Addons so if you want your PPV and UFC to stream in 1080 HD then this is what you want. Guys this is my label, I am the owner so you don't ever have to worry about something going wrong with your Renegade because I am here for all of you and I am easy to reach as Dave will attest to that, along with my staff of four Customer Service Reps that can assist you with any issues you may encounter, really!


Get your RG6 PRO TODAY click this link: https://renegadebox.tv/cart/ $150 OFF - PROMOCODE: RDP150

Scroll down and enter Promocode RDP150 and the price will drop from $449 to $299.00 plus shipping. Remember Renegade offers LIVE Support from my team 8am to 9pm PST. Our Support Line is 800.781.0260 We also recommend every customer to join the Renegade Support Group Facebook Page. Also I have a second website renegadetv.info where we have a live open forum, FAQ, my Blog and in 2 weeks we start a live webinar series for first time buyers, Reseller training, Marketing and teaching Tech Support. Site is not fully functional right now but be soon.

Thanks for believing in me!

Did she order that combo pack deal as well? The same one that Keith did? Because if you just buy the unit is should be 299.00

I know you aren't going to believe this, so I'm not even sure why I bother typing it but I'm going to anyways..

There's the cheap remote, and there's the more expensive remote.. They both will look pretty much the same, one is going to be glitchy as fuck, and the other one works a lot better.

Something about different electronics inside them or something. The original remotes (that look just like these ones) were good. At some point down the road the OEM's decided to save a few bucks on the cheaper remote (again looks identical), and those remotes sucked balls.. Many of the RDP members including myself had those.. Dave switched back to the more expensive remote. That all said yes he marks them up a lot from what he's paying..

Interesting Story.. When I went to China years back you could go to their little street markets and they sell anything and everything there. The one I ended up buying some stuff at had 3 different rows.. Row 1 was highest quality, Row 2 was medium quality, Row three was low quality. All of the items were the same items.. I.E. You could buy the same calculator on Row 1, 2, or 3. and it would visually look the same (or similar)..

Obviously the point of the story is.. Just because it looks the same, may not mean that they are the same. In this case I have no idea if it is or it isn't.

Dave, see my quote in post #98 above. That's the package DM told us to get because of Channel Up. On the website store, the $449 box does not say it comes with Channel Up, even though DM did say it did in his original post.

I left him a message earlier.. We'll see when he calls me back or responds on here.

OK, share your build... You obviously know something we don't. Most of us have said we like the plug and play function here and that's why we're willing to pay more. I'll buy any platform or OS you say I should, just keep it updated and let me know when my update is ready... and that shit better not buffer either.. :D

Anyone else know where the sticker is with the Channel Up password? I've looked all through the packaging and don't see it.

I would like to hear the reviews once you guys get everything hooked up.

Plugged it in, turned it on and connected it to the wifi. It walks you though the install/first start up pretty quickly. It works great, the wife is watching the food channel on one of the live tv apps, and I'm watching the Supercross race downstairs on our Streamsmart box. Ditched our cable and couldn't be happier. I've found apps on both where you can watch live local news in any state which is pretty cool.

What did you use for supercross? I was going to try but fell asleep kind of early

I used the Fox Go app that is on both boxes. I've used the AMA channel that is on both before as well.

I missed the Bellator fight last night and have had no luck finding it. Any clues on where to look? There is a learning curve.

I found Bellator 170 under the UFC Fightpass app but not 172. Give it a couple days and it should show up. Keep looking through the sports sections, I want to say there was an MMA app in there at one point but I can't find it now,

It looks to me like the rdp150 code only works on the 449$ deal. I tried it on the pro premium and it says code not applicable.

Anyone have the keyboard? How much do you like it?

Our newest model mini keyboard is backlit, the battery has been upgraded and the mousepad is more efficient. Runs like a champ!
I believe to $150 coupon code will not work with this deal, just buy it separately and I will include it with your order with no additional shipping charges or might have to create another coupon code for anyone who wants the premium combo pack.

I took the dive and ordered the premium combo pack w/keyboard remote. The Renegade website has an instant chat feature that allows you to ask questions live. Dave from Renegade TV was on and was generous enough to provide RDP members with a Promo code that will make the Premium combo pack $350. Thats $214 off today only. Promo code DM214. Get on the website today if you have been thinking about a purchase. Ive been thinking about it for a while and what pushed me over the edge was the live chat feature. It was very reassuring. They even let me know i could call when I receive the box to help with set up. First class in my book.

I ordered the RG6 Pro Premium combo pack with the mini keyboard last week and paid $414 after using the RDP150 coupon. The mini keyboard I bought is black and is not backlit. So it looks like I paid more and got the old keyboard. It also doesn't have component output like it says on the website it does, so it won't work with my TV. I tried the analog and that doesn't work either. Their support on Facebook has not yielded any solutions. My questions on here go unanswered as well (posts 88, 102, and 128).

Looks like I'm just getting the shaft all the way around and should just send the thing back. I'm still inside of my 15 day return period.

Exactly why I'm waiting to buy.

Anyone else use the Goodfellas app for live local news? That was the one thing I thought I'd miss when we dumped our cable, problem solved.

Keith and ?? He's going to refund the difference to you guys.

Well, that would be cool. At this point, it looks like I got the wrong keyboard, and now have to run out and buy a new TV to use it in my living room since it doesn't have component video. I'm running it in my bedroom for now, to check it out.

Still never got the answer as to what the difference was from the $449 box to the $529 premium w/Channel up, since we were told the $449 box would include Channel Up, then we were told to buy the premium combo.

Thanks, I'm with you as I want to hear some first time users experience on this. I'm dieing to buy but still hesitant for lack of reviews of newbies. I'm tech challenged so if thats an issue I kinda need to know this upfront.

The website shows this backlit keyboard: https://i2.wp.com/renegadebox.tv/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/keyboard.jpg?resize=500,499&ssl=1

I received the old, non-backlit keyboard: mini-keyboard.jpg

Have you tried one of these yet? Should get you by until you really need a new tv.

https://www.radioshack.com/products/radioshack-hdmi-to-component-converter

Yes, I tried this one from Fry's Electronics. Didn't work. http://www.frys.com/product/8062564?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG

If his TV doesn't have HDMI he REALLY needs a new TV.

Yeah, yeah. It's a 2004 Mitsubishi 65" HD1080i, just before DLP. Yes, it's old, but it works great and has matching furniture, so I hate to dump it just because it doesn't have HDMI.

Channel Up streams weren't working last night. It kept telling me that the error was logged to the log file. Where do I find the log file to see what's going on?

This would bother me if I spent that kind of coin on a box

Channel up isn't that big of a deal. With the exception of Live news programming you can find just about everything on demand. I've had a Channel Up account for almost a year now and I've only used it once or twice.

It is bothering me, especially as it seems I opted for the lifetime Channel Up subscription package for $80 more, didn't get the bigger discount someone else did and now I read this on the Renegade Facebook Support - posted by another user:

The Channel Up add-on is really in bad shape right now, I don't know if that developer is going to be able to sustain it.. there really isn't anything in Channel Up that you can't get inside of Evolution, and it will stream better and be in higher resolution as well.

I like the box but I'm thinking it's going back. I didn't get the right remote (not backlit), paid more than another guy on here, the Channel Up app that cost extra appears to be having issues and isn't really needed if other apps can give the same or better streams, not getting my questions answered on here or the Facebook Support site about my VGA issues, and the box didn't come with component video as the website said it would, which is making me look at replacing my main TV to the tune of $1600 I wasn't planning to spend.

I've been holding on to hope that RD's buddy Dave would get on here and answer the questions, get me the right keyboard and fix the overcharge, but time is running out on my 15-day return period. As is stands now, I feel like I got taken on the whole deal.

I've had Channel Up with my streamsmart box and never used it, live news is available through Goodfellas, just pick your state and it lists all the channels you can watch live.

I thought that Channel UP would have all the live PPV stuff, like UFC, etc. Haven't had one come on since I've had the box. Can you get that content from Goodfellas too? Is that just another app?

The best streams for UFC are always in Dragon STreams.

So what is Channel up "the best" for?

Old people who like watching live tv the old fashioned way which includes watching commercials.

DragonStreams, Evolution, Sports Devil and Sports Access (when it's working) are the best Add On's for Live sporting events and PPV's.

Walmart has a 70" Vizio 4K TV for $999 right now.
