New 2015 Enigma2 Boxes DVB-C and DVB-S2 Zgemma Star H1 & 2S
Hi people I've been an enigma2 user for many years and I have been waiting a long time for a good affordable box especiallywith DVB-C. So I thought I would give a little back with my review.
Introducing the Zgemma Star H1 & 2S [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]These are the latest boxes from ****** and theyare fantastic! They have official software support OpenATV, Air Digital now part of OE Alliance. Zgemma is an original box! The kernel was made by air digital software engineers, so it works much more stable. These boxes have CE, Rosh certification, dolby, HDMI,and CA license.
The best part is they are delivered to the UK for about ?85 all in!

So first things first it's delivered in good quality packaging. The manual is really informative and worth a look if your new to engima2 boxes. The remote control really is quality and has a great feel to it, better than VU remote. My boxes came with openatv installed. I prefer vix images so I visited h**p://www.zgemma.tv/ and got the latest openvix-Apollo.124-zgemma-star-h1_usb 16-01-2015image. When you've downloaded the image put the folder zgemma to the root of the usb stick. I used a quality sandisk usb as I found crappy usb sticks were no good. Then put the usb in the back usb port of the box and turn on to flash, box restarts automatically when complete. Flash time takes about 2 minutes and then restarts itself automatically.
From power off to viewing channels boot time takes....37 seconds. I installed ******, picons, tsmedia, skins (RED HD) and crossepg all to internal flash and running fantastic. No heat issues just a nice cool running box. Plays streaming media fine through tsmedia. I used the record function with my 16GB sandisk no problems records and plays perfect. Used sat and cable tuner together just like a traditional twin tuner no problem. Fantastic value for your money!

So I also used vix apollo 124 image zgemma-star-2S for this box. Again around 37 seconds for a full boot. Installed ******* picons,tsmedia, skins (Blue HD) and crossepg to internal flash and running great. Used timer to set recordings for later in the day different channels at same time no problem with my sandisk 16gb. Then initialised my WD passport 320gb external HDD and connected to frontand back usb ports recorded everything fine.
What's the main difference here..?
Do these two work on both Cable and Satellite?
Or is it one for each service?
