Openbox/***box Differences

Hi all,

I'm looking to get a basic 2nd box for upstairs & the only HD input on the TV there is component RGB. I've seen a few Openbox & ***box models that look like they'd do the trick, but I'm fairly baffled by the different models. Are there any to avoid? The obvious ones I've seen so far are the Openbox S9 and X5 and the ***box F3 or F3S, which all seem to do have component output. There seem to be quite a few other models as well, some that come in SCART or HD versions.

Other than the output, I'd want it to do softcam emulation and being able to get a decent channel list would be good as well.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm really only looking for a basic, cheap box, I'm not looking at spending the kind of money needed for an SE. It doesn't need anything more than a half-decent channel list, softcam emulation and now & next EPG.

My main box is a DM800HD, I'm happy using that for recording, streaming, EPG, etc.
