I previously had a Technisat HD S2 and this had only an HD tuner. The Solo2 is much better here. In connection with V13 Skykarte (incl. HD +), you can now record multiple loose HD channels simultaneously. The stream of a Synology NAS (AVI with Xvid / AC3 or M4V with H264 / AC3 or AAC) works without problems. (Use this CIFS, NFS always wanted to do not for any reason).
Nor is for Mac users the Program iDreamX recommended so that you can make just about anything with the box, which is possible (for example, streaming a television program via VLC on the MacBook, edit channel lists, backups, configuration Boot Logo, Telnet / FTP, reboot etc etc ).
For those who only look for a satellite box that is quasi Plug and Watch, rather accesses Technisat or similar. For this receiver should be interested in art, to learn the will and bring time. Most 1 star reviewers have probably not met at least one of these requirements.
