    I am a newbie but I need a good receiver to use it for DVB-S and DVB-C.


    I need it only to watch satellite, I need it to watch football matches and sports in generally.


    I have a budget around €400-500. But I need it special for few DTH platforms , those from Astra, Hotbird, Thor and Hispasat.


    I am interested in DM920. It is something better ? I refer in term of performances. I am looking to buy a device that will be OK for the next years to come.


    I don't know which software is better. I need a professional advice.


    Thank you in advance and Happy New Year !

    Approved the thread.

    Dream box devices are very good as first category


    The most supported model so far is 900 - 920

    The most advanced is Dream Two, and awaiting the latest model, Dream Seven

    But it has little support, as it is limited to the company's developers and those led by one person, It requires some knowledge and experience to use


    second as first-class category deco, the VU+ deco, and latest model is Duo 4K SE

    The VU+ deco are the most supported by the latest versions of plugins based on the latest versions of Python

    make your decision on {processor speed – RAM size – internal flash capacity}

    The only two major differences in favour of Ultimo are one more smart card reader and the box of Ultimo it is bigger.


    Also Duo 4k SE have optical audio connector.


    I am right ?
