Yes if it's a twin tuner box and you are recording one scrambled channel and watching another scrambled channel that would be 2 lines used.
I recently had a look around for IPTV prices and couldn't see anyone offering the major channels for £5 a month If you can get IPTV that's got Sly for that price that's pretty good. I'm wondering though if all channels are available like Disney, Nick Jnr etc for the kids.
yeah had my mag250 a year or so ago and found services expensive back then so got rid, even now you cant seem to find anything decent for less than £10 a month
no, and i found it no better than CS tbh mind that was over a year ago and cost more back then also

Sorry, mate. I don't remember any 'arguments' we've had in the past.
£10 for CS is good, I will agree. If only for BT Sports in HD.
And I agree... An enigma 2 box can be used for IPTV. I have been meaning to try it on my box to check the quality. I don't think it's as user friendly as a MAG250 though. Or via plex or kodi.
I'd personally, still pick up an IPTV box. More choice of channels. No dish. Easy setup.

Can't you get boxes that do both tuner and iptv?
I'd be inclined to get a sat tuner card for a pc that would let you do both?

An Enigma 2 box can do IPTV. But it's a little more basic, I believe.

I had a MAG250 originally. But got rid of it as I wasn't going to be paying £30 a month for a sub.
I dipped my toe back in a year later using a NOWTV box and plex. I now have a ROKU 3.

I use an ATV3 at home. My folks have a minix 7 mini in Spain.
Neither of which compare to a stb style box imo, but do the job so I guess it depends on taste.
Minix runs android kitkat and all the usual associated apps. In my experience iptv links for such platforms last consistently less time than cs ones did. If you are prepared to fuck about all the time then iptv is fine. If u have a good cs server then that maybe better, for the time being at least.
Because both have + and - is why I am surprised a decent dual tuner and ip box doesn't exist...

Are you going stream hunting or subscribing to a server?
I subscribe to a server and they have their own private streams and pay others for their private streams. These don't go down. #
I have fucked around less with IPTV as I don't need to reposition my disk after gale force wind and I don't need to rescan when a channel moves.
Sorry meant to say 'leaked' streams.
Paid services have support so in some aspects ur covered.

Got Zgemma Star s2
What is the best OS build to run this on as i seen and tied a few currently on Virtuosso Image Xtream by Vix on it but read a few review that is said this is not the best.
Yeah Openvix on mine too.
Openatv on mine and updates no problem.
guys can anyone PM a link to the blueskin (sly look) for the zgemma 2s and which build do i need to use for that just ordered a zgemma to replace f5s
If you are running vix (grab the sucmnsee backup), just got to plugins and download the bluehd skin through the menus.
