    cable receivers with transcoding

    Hi all. I am after a new receiver and need a bit of help.
    requirements are thay it must be capable of at least 1 satellite and 1 cable feed and must have transcoding.
    so far I know of the Gi xpeed lx3, vu+ duo2 and gigablue quad hd.
    are there any that I'm missing?
    Transcoding is vital so it limits ny choice a bit.
    thanks all for your help.

    The duo2 has hardware transcoding, don't think the other 2 have.

    The Quad plus also does although I have no idea as to the current status of its transcoding abilities.

    Don't really mind as long as it's ok on my tablet. I have a solo2 at the moment so I know what to expect from the transcoding.
    any receivers out there I am missing?

    Guess I'm leaning towards the xpeed lx3. Pity the miraclebox doesn't do transcoding and l that solo se only has 1 tuner.

    Is that Hardware abilities or software?
