VU + Duo2 with 2 cable tuners

This device have not even bought from Amazon, because I wanted to rebuild something. For I have let the Samsung DVB-C tuner installed that have been recommended by some reviewers - a little more expensive, but great (in my opinion). All receivable here Unitymedia channels were loaded without hesitation. The downloaded channels automatically apply for Tuner B. me (subscription terms) due to it and other desired free channels I pushed in a favorites list and downloaded the free software DreamBoxEdit to the notebook via a LAN cable, sorted as usual ( is easy with a kind of scroll bar and not a thousand clicks) and then re-uploaded to VU +. You now also have the usual broadcast pocket numbers and can use the numbers keyboard of Fb are called (was my biggest concern before buying).
The picture is excellent, even in SD. Settings concerning. Picture quality or taste I did not need to make. I make recordings using an external USB hard drive (1 TB WD). Works just as perfectly as TimeShift.
Recordings (.TS file format) that I want to burn, I still carry on with WLAN to PC. LAN cable 15 m is already purchased. The contact with my Fritz! Box was no problem.
For the cable connection, I use a Hama broadband cable distributor (if looping would be unsatisfactory to Tuner B using the enclosed loop cable. The concern was unfounded).
The narrow working angle of Fb I can not confirm (do not need iron sights) so. Allegedly implemented in the new Image VTi 7.0 with its facilities plans to improve this.
The two "Bildschirmchen" on the front are quite informative and show the relevant information for the moment
(Especially the left). That the right something appears milky, do not bother me further.
Recording a transmitter and watching another goes perfectly. Only on the left display one sees that the tuner B now involved (going really well over 2?).
Overall, the unit makes a clean-made and sophisticated look. Although I call "non-Linux users" had serious misgivings, I am very satisfied with the purchase.
What (not all used) As for the performance and capabilities, I can only recommend this device.

Update 25/11/14
I'm very satisfied with my box still.
However - if I helped them push back with the menu item "off" in the Deep Sleep, then display after booting (approx 1 min) pictures and sound, the stop after several minutes. Then it runs as usual impeccable.
Was about to save power overnight. During stand-by by the Power Button Fb there are no complaints.

Update 06:12:14
Upgrade to 8.0 VTi performed (the seller). Seller suspected that the previously mentioned problems are a software problem. After upgrading, you were gone, in fact. The previously saved settings, such as channel lists for. Instance, were still / again present. WLAN / LAN Contact the Fritz box I had to log in again. Also, I have the (hopefully not only subjective) impression that the effect of the angle Fb has somewhat improved.
I'll stay on the ball.

Update 22:12:14
A box with all the trimmings? Here are three of the past week:
- Could not be in the morning to wake up from deep sleep by Fb
Remedy: off and on again at the main switch = OK
- Timeshift attempt failed. Basic "no hard drive found"
(Although so far worked perfectly) Device Manager totally naked.
The same happened with Instant recording.
Remedy: off With power button and switched on again = OK (Had the
HDD only again "hang").
- When zapping a series transmitter was suddenly totally black without any
Comment on the screen. Different frequencies.
Remedy: off With power button and switched on again = OK
Correct Linux / Enigma fans had been taken in view of the Work view of erotic feelings. Not me! I love it when a new device is working.
