Looking for the cheapest linux HD receiver with a proper 7 day EPG. I know I can go down the DM clone route, but would like to know if there are any other options below £160. Primarily it would be used as a client setup but would be good if it could work as a server aswell. Any thoughts?

Do you want a box with a single or dual tuner? If you could push yourself to £200 you would have a lot more options!
-
A single tuner would be fine, at the moment can't go above £160 unfortunatley.

I have been looking at getting a Gigablue HD 800 solo for around the £160 mark now runs E2 images support from a couple of good teams
also now supports cccam/oscam and a lot of the E2 plugins work with the box

I just bought a Gigablue HD 800 Solo and the potential is amazing for the price - look around and you could get it for about £150 including delivery - I don't think there is any UK stock, but there are UK companies that drop ship from European suppliers. Best get it direct though and you will get it at the price you want, and it takes less than a week to get it from Europe. It can run the Open AAF image, and the guys are working very hard to get this right, as well as other images. Worth a look. I am definitely sticking with mine and once I have had a bit more of a play you will hear more about it here...

I have read alot of good reviews about the Gigablue HD 800 solo & from my own expeiences i can say that Open AAF is one of the best & most reliable images i have used.

The Gigablue 800 sounds good,thanks for the info. Hopefully you can help with a couple of questions
1. Does the box accept standard Enigma 2 channel lists like Catseyes. VHannibal etc?
2. Can you install Cool TV EPG or at least something similar to the VIX EPG?
3. Is it easy to flash images through the USB?
4. Can it play movies through USB and via another receive like VU+ Duo? -
