My Best Receiver

We had a lot of tried and partially (eg Humax) properly spent money. As a result of an exchange of cards Sky suddenly our Humax was then no longer be used, we get the standard part of Sky ... * incredibly * ... what a waste! Immediately put back in the original box and stashed in the basement.

VU + on a friend's recommendation ordered (Just to test, if it's no good, you can at Amazon, too easily return again) and was to brief teething problems a new fan.

Certainly, the VU + a device that requires some computer skills (at least at least one family member or friend to helping) to even install it correctly, but after that the part can not be beat. By Enigma2 based system, there are a lot of plug-ins that facilitates a life or can enrich (continuous shooting, various EPG providers, Internet radio and much, much more).

Recordings directly from your Mac (either via browser frontend or via the free app TV-Browser) and / or from the iPhone or iPad, are they also "Lizzie binding wire" make, lead and lag time can be uniquely defined freely, so that even the recording of private channels should be fully on it.

Even the stream within its own network (including wireless) is not a problem. Television in the garden with the iPad is a real treat.

I bought the VU + Solo2 and connected two SAT cable so I can accommodate up to 4 programs simultaneously (which, of course, two of them then always on the same SAT-alignment (H / V) must each be broadcast).

But again: who has no knowledge of computers and thinks that "Linux" the friend of Charlie Brown's, which should resort to another device, the VU + comes into its own only when one has once set him cope.
