Dear community,
I’m a bit frustrated right now and hope to get some advice from you.
I’ve been using a DM8000 for many years and a Dreambox Two for about two years now. Both boxes run Newnigma images with OSCam. I use them to watch HD+ and SRG (Swiss) at home with original cards. As already mentioned in the Dreambox Two section, the OLED display on my box is partially defective. That issue made me look around to see what’s currently available on the market—and honestly, I was quite surprised. It seems that there won’t be any new Dreambox models anymore. And when I look at VU+, most shops appear to be out of stock or empty as well. I’m not familiar with other brands.
So my question to you is: What would you recommend today?
I’m a big fan of maximum flexibility and quality, so price is not the main concern. Ideally, I’m looking to replace my setup with two new boxes and keep the partially defective Dreambox as a backup device.
If you ask me what features are important, my wishlist would look like this:
- Nice front display
- Maximum number of CI+ and XCrypt slots (or at least external expansion options)
- Fast performance
- Multistream tuner support and IPTV Support
- Bluetooth remote control (preferably with backlighting)
- Large community, Images, Tools, Plugins and solid long-term support
- As modern as possible in terms of hardware standards
Or does it make sense to wait a bit longer—maybe something new is coming soon that everyone is waiting for?
Thanks a lot for your tips and for an open and honest discussion!
Regards,
