Hi all
I hope this is in the correct place, I apologise if not, I am sure a MOD will relocate it.
I have a VU+ Duo 2 and am over the moon with it. I now need a second box for the family but I am concerned if a Linux based box is the way to go. I will list what I need
It should have dual input and the ability to record, preferably internal HDD. I know that these days HDMI comes as standard on most boxes. I am happy to get a Solo 2 but I am concerned my wife (especially) and my daughter will not be able to operate it and so simply give up. They are used to "other" providers!! It's a hobby for me and I am happy to learn new things but my wife just wants to switch on the TV and watch or record the channels she likes.
I have used a Technomate 5402-HD M2 and it was okay, I still have a 5402 HD M3 but it's single input so not suitable.
Bouquets could be created easy enough so they get BBC1 HD, local, ITV C4 C5 etc and I will hope they don't change the channel listing too often.
Should I go Solo 2 or look at a non-Linux box?
Thanks

PS Could I share a Cline from my Duo 2 or is that not allowed?
