I've recently upgraded from a phantom box and I went for the zgemma h.2h so far the box is good and I can't fault it. Pretty easy to set up with the help of this forum.

[celts4life]

[cactikid]

im looking at this box now Miraclebox Mini+ Hybrid 1x DVB-C/T/T2 Cable/Terrestrial HD 1080p PVR Digital Receiver i think this one will do the job

 

[cactikid]

single tuner so you cant watch and record other channel at same time.

 

[thebulls]

Miraclebox Premium Twin+ Plus 2x DVB-C/T2 Linux Enigma 2 Linux HD Digital Receiver PVR Ready so this one then

 

[cactikid]

yes now you can,choose a hdd and get a kingston 8gb usb stick for flashing and/or storing epg too.

 

[thebulls]

OK thank you for help the company im looking at buying this from can install the firmware for you from what ive read openvix seems to be the best option is this right

 

[gibbletts]

Vix is the best I've used and there is great support over at world of sat forum, but don't talk about lines on there

Hi, with a single tuner, will it pause live tv, for a pee break and can you also record whilst not watching on vm please. if so would the miracle box mini be spot on.
thanks
