Box reccomendations

[Zack1uk]

just get a zgemma H9s and that will do all you need

1. sat tuners
2. iptv
3. connect to your personal media using mount points
4 has the sky look
5. it is also 4k
6 connect a usb drive for recording

If you have not set up one of these boxes before you will have to do a fair bit of research . you seem to be intent on spending a lot of money when you don't need to. it dose not matter how much you spend on a enigma 2 box they all do the same thing. in the old days we used to spend a lot of money on the VU range as these were the only boxes that had twin tuners and a 7 day epg.

Thanks, but only one tuner on the H9s, unless I'm mistaken. I'm dumping sky and I know that any freezes or laggy UI will bug the hell out of me. I see so many people stating that they started with Zgemma boxes but then went onto Vue/Mutant/other boxes later and wished they had done it earlier. Not seen one person say its just snake oil, so I'm hoping there is some truth in this.

I appreciate that they all do the same, but its the way that they do it, that is also important. I'd rather pay more for a slicker experience particularly if I'm going to be pushing 4k video with HD audio through the box.

I don't know if 4K works yet with IPTV ? Some members were saying they had issues streaming it.
But you made a good choice for a future-proof box

You have done the easy bit. The hardest thing is finding a good supplier do your self a favor and do your own research decide what you want from a supplier and take your time.

Think about the average cost of a server is £10 a month. you will find cheaper but their will always be a compromise. No matter what anybody tells you. Welcome to the club.
