Hi, i have a Humax freesat hdr that i want to replace with either a VU+ Duo or a skybox which seem very popular at present. I'm not needing it to be 'Smart' I have an apple tv2 that I'm yet to jb that can do those things. So a box that I'd like is one with a twin tuner and that can record but most importantly be reliable and easy to use (operationally and TV guide menu), especially in fta mode. If I was to look into using it with a sky sub type thing, I'd also want it to be reliable especially in keeping it working in fta.
The box I think would be best is a vu+ duo. What concerns me is the cost of a box if it won't do the basics. The threat of the paid for channels being stopped for hd and even sd is also a pain if it were to be used it that way. I hear lots about skybox's being popular but seem far too cheap. As for how they work and how long for isn't something I know much about, or other boxes that might do what I need.
Hopefully you might be able to advise me on which path to choose
