Options after cancelling SKY?
Hi All, I am cancelling SKY+HD and want to know some options for a good (cheaper) setup. I want to be able to record. pause programmes etc. I can link to internet as well.
What box etc do you recommend?
Can I use existing Sat dish?

Zgemma H2H is a nice cheap option.
Does both sat and cable with a net connection and Right Files
Can record and pause live tv on it ................Paul

Thanks for that info, I don't necessarily want the cheapest option, I just would like to know some good options - to include ability to record on hard drive and pause, rewind live TV etc, just like Sky+. Can you, for example, record to an external hard drive with the Zgemma devices?

Dreambox for me, not sure what the latest or best one is but I hate a DM600 and DM800, plug a flash stick in and your sorted for recording, you do need to find someone to give you a "cline" tho, so you'll need to google that.
another option is an android box, its no where near as quick as cardsharing ie you cant channel hop but it has the capabilities to do "some" of what you want.

I have VU+ Duo2 twin sat & you can use existing dish
it comes with built in wifi so can connect to your router for IPTV or streaming content
has hard drive option so you can record pause etc. and USB ports
fully customizable skiins for epg etc. so you can set it up how you like (There are a LOT of options)
also has hardware encoding so you can stream any HD content to another device without buffering
you can just use the freesat channels or get a cline as berley said above
it wasn't cheap but I think it was worth it but you can get cheaper models depending on what features you want
I wanted a good box which could stream any of my channels live or anything I have recorded to my laptop when I am away from home and thought this was the best option for me

Im using a Mut@nt 2400HD twin tuner with an internal hard drive, you can also fit cable tuners to this box if you desire this, it has time-shift in the VIX image that i have on the box, but there is quite a few options on boxes m8, so google may help you decide what best meets your needs....cheers ...[ and, you would defo need a c-line to get the best out of the box ]

Same as digdug a VU+ Duo2
And it works out cheaper than sky over a few months.....you would need a cline for it to work.....but you can't get HD channels with sky anymore.

Hi all, I ended up with a zgemma h2s box. I was able to watch SKY channels etc until few weeks ago. Now it is just a Freesat box.
My question now is, what do I do? Can I get IPTV to be able to watch SKY channels again. I have an IPTV player with-in my software but it is just Movies and boxsets etc, not 'live' TV.
My opening screen says 'Vix' in corner.
Sorry to sound like a noob.....but I am to all this!!
Any help much appreciated....

I would opt for a mag 256 box if you want IPTV m8, the Zgemma can run a plugin, but the mag is an actual IPTV box, so well supported m8 ..cheers
