The Solo can do transcoding but not the quad, don't know if it will in the future but Rob is clued up and may be able to answer this.
In terms of value imho its the quad all the way.

It has Gigabit ethernet and HBBTV works too.
I have a box.
Both have the same soc.
For the Solo2 transcoding for mobile device is available (yet in beta state); HbbTV and Gb-LAN are actually working.
The Quad can handle 4 plugable tuners (not all available yet), the Solo2 has 2 fixed tuners.
For the Quad ViX is available, for the Solo2 not (yet???).
Help asked via PM will be ignored.
The forum is there for help and all will benefit from your questions.

Hi warajoker,
the best address for these questions would be GigaBlue.
HBBTV and GB-LAN were promised so I hope they come. There are rumors that the solo2 uses a separate ethernet chip but I cannot confirm it. Transcoding might be in the BCM chip but it also might be a paid feature which must be paid by the manufacturer so that the SDK/driver contains this feature. All questions only GigaBlue can answer.
ciao

Hi warajoker,
I think when your not german speaking HBBTV is not of great interest for you. GBit-Lan is only of interest if you copy losts of data to and from the box. Transcoding is only of interst if you want to watch TV on your phone/tab in LAN or WAN (internet f.i. your office:-)).

i suppose the gb ethernet would be good to transfer over 800gb of recordings lol and the transcoding would be good to watch the football at work
hi,
what is your boss saying if you watch football Art work?
ciao
