Looking for recommendations... Android box with freesat connectivity

[smiggy]

Hi all,

Looking for any recommendations, I'm in the market for a new box.
Needs to be android with satellite tuner connectivity is there such a thing?
I have seen the formuler box, but I understand this is freeview only through an aerial.

Any suggestions or is there no such box?

Cheers

What channels are you looking to get through the satellite side then if not free view.

Hi mate,
It's just that I've already got a satellite dish installed and in place, but I do not have an aerial to pick up freeview.

There are such boxes with dual OS but you boot into Android OS or Enigma2 it can't do both at the same time and generally they are not that good. I would just get an E2 box for Sat/IPTV and just get a seperate Android box for running apps like kodi etc . All depends what you want to run on it but you can pick up android boxes very cheap these days so quite a few people use both. I prefer E2 boxes to run IPTV and sat myself but generally they take a bit more know how to set up but easy once you get the hang of it. If also for IPTV a lot of people will recommend Android, it's down to what you prefer.

Amiko A6 Combo is one Android box with both satellite and Terrestrial tuners.

It runs on Android 7.1 Nougat.

Never had one but it is an option for you.
