I bought last year a Vu+ Solo SE for our up stairs TV. No issues on the box except that i struggle a lot when streaming from the box to my Mac (to VLC via iDream) or to my ipad (I use blackbox pro). I investigated this issue for a long time and there's clearly a limitation with the box, so decided to replace it.
I thought of getting a Solo2, although the box is a bit expensive. The Xtrend ET8000 looks as an option although it seems that xtrend stopped selling the box. I am also concerned te Xtrend has no transcoding which my be limiting for streaming.
Any feedback/advice is appreciated :-)
