    Question USB DVB-C Tuner

    Hello

    I've recently been looking into upgrading my Vu+ box with a USB Dvb-C tuner. I was looking at purchasing a Sundtek Dongle, but have recently seen that VU+ make one too.

    What one do you guys recommend I get? Is one quicker than the other at changing channels?

    Here are the details for each:
    Sundtek
    Vu+

    Any help would be appreciated.

    It's better to use a VU+ plug and play tuner.

    I'd say it's better to use the Sundtek as you can also use on PC, use on other receivers and they fix issues a lot quicker than others.

    there are thread on here that suggest that many of these tuners only work with FTA channels - has this now been addressed - atleast with the sundtek?
