    Mut@nt HD51 new user - looking for a newbie oscam guide

    Hi

    I got my new mut@nt HD51 dual cable tuner today, has the latest openvix but was not aware until a short while ago mgcamd is not used here

    Previously only had boxes with mgcamd so this is the first time I've seen oscam.

    Can someone please tell me where I can find a oscam setup guide, have looked but couldn't find one using search.

    Also it came flashed with Openvix, should i keep this or is the a better option?

    Thanks a lot
    Trippy

    My previous boxes was 2x vu solo2 that i had for about 3 years & was very happy with them. ive now got hd51 & sf4008, in my view the solo 2 is still a very good box for sat but for what i wanted i needed cable & sat tuners & id just bought a new samsung 4k tv / both the hd51 & sf4008 are faster boxes & picture quality will depend on your tv.

    The Vu+ Solo2 gives a great Picture.

    Yes it is a great picture but I am unsure to buy a Vu Turbo or upgrade from a Solo 2 to a Mutant HD51 with a sat and cable tuner.

    What I don't like about the HD51 is that you can only have two tuner cards. And the cards are only available in single tuner units.

    The SF4008 is the same with regards to number of tuner cards, but it has twin tuner cards. But still restricted to three tuners even if you have two twin tuner cards.

    So are you saying the HD51 gives a poorer picture?

    A word of caution too, with the new generation of 4K receivers you can only use Oscam for your softcam. The Octagon SF4008 maybe your best bet, at least you could configure to 1x Sat & 2x Cable, then at least you can record & watch on cable. But again with the SF4008 you can only use Oscam.

    Is the picture quality worth the upgrade from a Solo 2 or should I hold on to it a little longer.
