The Golden Interstar GAMMA X is a Full HD (1080p) set-top box with a dual-standard DVB-C/T2 tuner for cable and terrestrial television. It runs the Linux operating system and decodes video in H.265/HEVC as well as MPEG-2/4 and H.264, making it compatible with modern high-efficiency broadcast streams. An adjustable autostart function lets you choose whether the device boots into TV or IPTV mode.

The unit connects to your network via a wired RJ-45 Ethernet port (10/100 Mbps) or via a USB Wi-Fi or 3G modem dongle. IPTV is supported through Stalker Middleware, Xtream IPTV, and .m3u playlist formats. Dolby Digital AC3 audio can be passed through the SPDIF coaxial output to a compatible soundbar or surround system.
