Hang on a few days TM have a new Linux Enigma2 receiver coming out called the TM-Nano-3T with 2 x sat tuners and 1 x DVB-C/T/T2 installed its roughly the same spec as the Solo2 and will retail for around ?219

I have enclosed the manual and Specs below

[bj1]

thanks digicon i only picked the tm twin as i have heard good thimgs about it and tbh im not to bothered about twin tuner and i dont have cable in my area so can you recommend a good single inigma 2 reciever i have had a look at the ibox and they look good value for money

[digicon]

If you specify your Budget then i am sure you will get a lot of recommendations for around that price

[bj1]

dont mind spendig uup to ?250

thanks

[digicon]

Best Single tuner available non clone would be the Vu Solo SE version around ?179

[gilvey]

I'd go for a dual tuner

[bj1]

thanks digicon gilvey which twin tuner do you recommend....thanks

[bj1]

thanks if i was to get a solo se which image would be best as there are more options for images with these stb's

[gilvey]

I have a tm twin oe

[bj1]

what image do you use on your twin oe and is it stable and reliable ts media films sport do they run ok?

[gilvey]

I'm running vix apollo o21 ts media runs fine. It's just a matter of setting up to suit your needs

this model caught my eye tm nano 2 super enigma 2 linux hd twin tuner ........ seems to have the same specs are they any good and is the support for this box good

[gilvey]

I prefer the tm twin oe as it has rf out. Running latest vix 029. Running great. Tsmedia, xbmc etc

[bj1]

thanks gilvey the rf out will be very handy for me as i am running a blade 7000 atm and using a rf modulator to send to other rooms ......i am very tempted to buy this box with 500 gb hdd for ?229 i am just a bit of a noob when it comes to linux so i may be asking for a little help when i get it if you dont mind me sending you a pm

thanks

If you already have an RF mod incorporated into your setup then i cant see the point in getting a TM-Twin you are investing in Old technology especially the Chipset and processor side where as for ?10 more as you stated above with the Nano2 Super you are basically getting a Vu Solo2 instead of old hat Vu Duo

TM-Twin = Vu Duo Dual core 405mhz processor & 384mb of DDR2 Ram

TM-Nano 2 = Vu Solo2 Dual Core 1300mhz processor & 1GB of DDR3 Ram

For the ?10 difference there is no contest

I am Using the OpenATV 4.2 image on a Gigablue Quad Plus which i like immensely, But seeing as your pretty new to these sort of receivers then OpenVix would be a good starting point

The open atv image looks the dogs but i will trial with the vix until i get a proper understanding of linux.

thanks again bud

[bj1]

i have searched the forum and there dont seem to be any tutorials for this stb can anybody point me in the right direction?

[gilvey]

There is a pdf manual if you do w search on google
