super machine, but not easily

First Impression:
So I have the receiver then ordered here on Amazon and just one day later he was there. As you unpack the first opinion has confirmed from the Internet to the same, the device makes a very high-quality impression. The housing is made of metal, black matt finish and although the front is made of plastic, but not a cheap. The whole device makes a great impression. Also when switching on, the large display delighted the device. Only the remote control falls a bit "boring" out, they are not just making the highest quality impression, but definitely also not cheap. It did not bother me great. What I find very beautiful, is included in addition to the manual, the power cable, remote control with batteries also contain a HDMI cable. The one misses else at any other reputable vendors whose equipment is much more expensive.

Commissioning:
The VU + devices are not Plug and Play devices was clear to me, so I have razed me of the device. Here you will be guided with the help of a menu step by step through the creation, in which the language is set, two tuners are activated and the network is established. However, this is very easy to deal with and from each. Also takes a few minutes until you can television.
Done Now you can television.
If you have invested a few more minutes, you can still quickly an external USB hard drive, or a USB plug stick and those set up in accordance with the menu, then you can also for actions like Timeshift (Timeshift) and PVR have recourse as recordings. Recordings can be programmed even in the EPG. Here there are so many functions, such. As the shooting, where you can specify that the serial Names "xyz" should always be taken, no matter what station it runs.

Special features:
That's not all, what you can do with the VU + Duo. The unit is due to its Linux operating system a marvel. Theoretically, you can do anything with the machine, what you can do with a computer. In the same support forum, you can set the machine to the smallest detail to its own claims by downloading software and an infinite number of alternative plugins. From known circles, I know well that this is really very simple and assign functions to the device class.

Taking all these points together, we can only say that the device for the price is absolutely outrageous and absolutely a buy recommendation.

Nevertheless,
I've sent the device is still within the first 30 days back. For the following reasons:
- Fans of the device was also in stand-by mode (which could be disabled in the menu, then the receiver was however quite hot)
- Assignment of the remote control buttons was absolutely undecided for me, eg Ch + is not upshift one transmitter, the special favorites list open (but this is all configurable via corresponding plug-ins)
- No time + fully read me in the matter VU and then modify the software and plug accordingly (therefore can not use special features)
- Despite twin tuner I could not always record a program and watch a second. Had always problems that the second program remained black at once. (Should be able to be solved by plug-ins)

So, you want a device that you plug and it all works, as you imagine it, then you're probably not + come to the right device with the VU. Here I would recommend he prefers to bring another device. Those who do not but came with two left hands to the world and especially, and the decisive point was with me, has the time to sit down with the unit and the Forum apart, which I can only guess exactly this device zuzulegen. Here fit Price-performance in all respects !!!!

I hope I could you get an impression of the device.
