Is their a choice of Optus/Foxtel decoder box?
Mine has coax ouput only and I would like the option of RCA or S Video.
Are Optus and Foxtel different nowadays (since Fox bought Optus TV didn't
they)?

I rang them up. The only option is to pay them $99 for someone to come out
and install a new one.
No pickup or postage. Only their monkeys are allowed to do it.
What a crock of shit.

I think you mean it just has RF out, coax is the cable.. Your box doesn't
even have RCA out? I can't imagine that they could release an STB like
that. My very 1st box from years and years ago had RCA. Does it have SCART
instead or something?
Oh, and if your box should suddenly develop an intermittent problem, someone
would come and replace it for free. ;)
