Ok so I need a new PVR with twin tuner, I don't have SKY or Virgin TV only freeview but I have a Sat dish pointing at 28 whatever and twin shotgun cable installed already.
My Freeview PVR is giving up the ghost so I was going to by a Humax Freesat PVR which would cost me @ £250, then i thought maybe buy a Vu+ Solo2 install a HDD and use that instead while its still possible to get certain other things cheaper than through official channels.
I know I would need to find some kind person to help me out with this lol.
Incidently would this cost me double if I wanted to put a cheaper box in the kids bedroom
Now I know nothing of Sat TV or these or any other sat boxes so.........
My questions are:
Are the vu+ boxes easy for the wife to use, one button record or is it a sequence of button presses and is the EPG accessible with a one button press or is that a sequence of buttons to get to.
and is it worth paying the extra for the solo2 than say a duo ? original as I dont want a clone.
Now I'm just thinking out loud and would appreciate some feedback, its not definite yet
Thanks for reading
