What is the romote control like? good quality? does it have a dedicated record button, fast forward etc?

what is the EPG like? the one on my 800 is poo, doesnt work properly. If i set it on the VU to record a TV show 3 or 4 days in advance will i have any issues?

i see PLI images and Dream Elite images, is there one that is better than the other? are they both the same?


Thanks

Yes great quality, yes has record & FF FRW buttons.

EPG is great using PLi image, u can set timers in advance with no problems. With OpenPLi you just install the Rytec plugin from addons menu.

Theres no better image imo. I personally prefer OpenPLi, but you've got nothing to lose trying all images & see what you like best.

OpenPLi is more or less updated daily and sometimes it could be a little buggy. They say i its beta firmware, but to be honest i've not had any major issues with it. You can keep you image updated just by simply selecting software update every few days, save's re-flashing when new drivers / fixes get released.
