I finally made up my mind! Decided for an Ultimo despite it's (much) higher price (duo was the other alternative).
First thing I did today was to call the sat guy who previously installed and configured my motorized dish + DM800 and ask him to install a second dish.
This new, fixed second dish will point towards Astra 1 as that's where all my wife's channels are. I will most probably also install a twin/quad LNB on my motorized dish to make the most out of it... so one tuner for the wife and one for me.
What else can you do with a box like the ultimo, except for watching and recording TV?
Can you transfer movies(xvid, divx, mkv, qt etc.) to it and play it directly from the box? install a torrent client? music central? Things I'm not even familiar with?
How do you guys take advantage of your boxes?
Thanks / Q
