Which Box Next?

[arrod-ball]

Currently running a Dream 800hd clone. The box is great when it works but i keep getting the dreaded tune failed message (Rev K tuner) i also get an error message on boot up. this is only sorted by turning the power on & off repeatedly.

I would like to buy a box with a bit more stability so what i would like to know is should i get a VU+ solo/Duo or should i take a punt on the Blade 7000 taking the cost difference into account is the Duo/ Solo really worth the extra money & will the blade be redundant in a few months if the support is slow re updates.

i guess know one has a crystal ball but would just like to get your thoughts please.

dm800 is a great bit of kit and dont take offence, usually fails due to user error

if you flash a stable image and buy an original tuner you will be fine( cheap otion anyway )

[arrod-ball]

no user error here
well maybe there might be?

what image would you recommend to remove tuner fail message and the error message on boot up?

Dreamelite blackhole is a bullet proof image and change tune for a rev m or a l3 one mate

i use nabilosat black hole v12, never missed a beat on either of my boxes for over a year now

buy a real tuner and your laughing
