[QUOTE="MCelliotG, post: 1035477, member: 404726"] I believe receivers can have great potential as an all-in-one solution and there's only one key to that which is called convenience. The topic has been discussed before, I believe the perfect DXer's receiver can be built but the thing is that no manufacturer cares for that, since DXers are the minority of the buyers unfortunately. If a TBS card can operate in a linux PC, then there's no question why a tuner of the same capabilities can perform as it should on a linux based STB. The problem will always be the hardware and drivers. Once someone caters to provide all that, then the capabilities will be limitless. And yes, the last couple of years big steps have been made (multistreams, T2-MI, DVB-S2x) which shows that there is some interest in the market, too bad every effort has to be commercialized and this means it's unlikely a perfect DX receiver will be made any time soon. But we can only hope... [/QUOTE]
