Not much talk on this forum about the latest and hottest topic on other satforums, the new Linux based VU+ Duo than crunches the Dreamboxes right now.

It would be nice with a section for this lovely new receiver everyone is getting right now.
 
It certainly is a nice receiver... received mine 2 days ago and am really happy with it.
 
Well, as you two have opened the batting (so to speak) perhaps you might tell those of us who only inhabit this one Forum a little more about it ............... Linkies, Specs, Key Features etc? :)
 
Thought that was widely known by now? :)

It seems to be the closest to a DM8000 without the DM8000 price tag. Am running the PLi image for now after spending 1 day on the original VU+ image.

Some minor annoyances:

Fan is runnning constantly and although very quiet, it's not silent.
Software is still under constant development, so box locks up without anything apparent happening.

Some pluspoints

Vu+ seems to release every week a new update to the drivers, so bugs are actively worked on. PLi and other image builders follow suit in days after.
It's very quick and the picture (both HD and SD) looks reasonably smart. I have nothing to compare it against though.

All in all, it's early days for me, but so far I am happy to have spend my hard earned on it.
 
Have made a Linux receivers general section and when we get enough interest, I'll open a section specific to this box.
 
And Dreamelite are releasing an image soon!
 
Deleted ... not on the ball :-per
 
We'll start a new section when a few people have them, which may not be for a while judging by the supply issues.
 
Im getting one next week. Would like a section on it please.
 
yes mine is landing next week:)
 
Time for a dedicated section on the VU+ Duo Linux receiver Peut-etre?

Pretty please rolfw ;)
