Also say marginal transponders should be better, so I will be running a comparison between the HD51 and SF4008

Mmm that is interesting, c'mon VU+ get your finger out LOL.

All that matters is i run PLi on a box and as a Vix user i find it very similar to use and there is nothing there that should surprise anyone.

And that explains why that image-range was left behind so quickly

Well, I use them both all the time (Pli on test boxes that is) and I find similarities are hard to find (both in UI as in files, even after having gone through all the work to bring PLi in a usable state).

What's the factory image on this?
And will it come with the plugin feeds as the openvix ?

ps: already ordered one and choose factory image.

**Andy_Hazza** · 21-01-17, 12:59

Factory image won't have any feeds.

Does anyone know how if HLG will work on these new 4K boxes.

To early to tell, HDR imo doesn't work perfect on any 4K receiver. None have HLG at present and very much doubt they will have the appropriate hardware needed.

I thought that was a USP on the Octagon that it supported HLG?

Sorry to post this, but Octagon have informed us that new stock has been delayed by approx. 1 week. Looks like delivery to us is going to be end of next week (to be confirmed).
