View Full Version : VU Uno OR VU Solo
Hi,
What is the difference between the UNO and the SOLO please? i see there is about £70 difference but is there any reason why the UNO is better?
Do either box allow for internal HDD? if so are they 2.5 or 3.5?
Does either box allow for MKV support that actually works? (i have a duo but it is hit and miss).
Additionally i could get the ET5000... not had one of these boxes but are they as good as the UNO and Solo?
Thanks
Some of the features the VU+ Uno has over the Solo: -
Newer CPU
More Ram
Can fit internal 3.5" SATA
Modular Tuner
Front display
Universal remote to control TV and Uno
Solo has none of the above.
Well thats what comes to mind right now :)
The Uno has and extra USB slot and twin card reader also, boots twice as quick as the solo and looks a whole lot better.
For me the Uno is the best product from Vu so far.

you remembered some features I forgot, having one of those days :rolleyes:
Dont forget to checkout our sponsor steve ;)
the uno is also blindscan capable.
So with all this in mind then would you get the Uno, or splash out that little bit extra for the DUo, hurry as i want to place an order today for a next day delivery from sponsor.
Or should i get the ET5000?

Depends on wether you want a dual it single tuner box

No blind scan on the Duo either.
Donnie, can you just outline what a blindscan actually is? If you had £340 quid which box would you get?
Thanks
All depends if you want single or twin tuner, you really can't go wrong with any of the single tuners mentioned, even the et5000 is a superb single tuner. Suppose it comes down to budget and twin or single tuner.

Blind scan allows you to scan the whole satellite without the need for preset tranasponder data allowing you to pickup channels and feeds not listed on the epg such as test channels etc.

I own both and as Sic has pointed out the main thing is if you need single or twin tuners.
If single is all you need then I would go for the Uno, the hardware improvements over the Duo and Solo make it a great box.
It puts my old 800HD to shame.
Also I would recommend you use the sponsor here as service is A1
i know the 800 owners always bang on about them, i cant believe how poor my 800 is over my VU Duo.
I only need a single tuner so i think i am going to go for the Uno, the et5000 though is a fantastic price as is the solo.
Uno it is.

no dreambox comes any where close to the quality of a Vu receiver in my opinion.
Uno...you wont regret it.
Great comments guys, makes for a good read. Quick. (only cos I'm 2x Vu duo owner)

I own an et5000 and had now the Uno here for testing.
I prefer the et5000. Better price, OpenPLI support and fanless. Uno will go back to dealer, as I get a Twin Tuner receiver for little more money!
