Hi,

Looking for a cable receiver (to be used on virgin media UK) with the following capabilities:

1. Dual DVB-C (so can watch one channel whilst recording another)
2. PVR
3. 7 day EPG? :confused:
4. Series link? :confused:
5. A box which has good support

Budget is not an issue but would appreciate recommendations for both medium + high end.

I have tried both searching + browsing the forum but no mention of my specific requirements therefore created a new thread.

Thanks in advance!

Look at the Xtrend ET8000 > http://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk/Hybrid-Cable-Terrestrial-Digital-HD-Receivers/Xtrend-Linux-HD-Hybrid-Cable-Terrestrial-Receivers/Xtrend-ET8000-2x-DVB-C-T-T2
and the Mut@nt HD2400 > http://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk/Hybrid-Cable-Terrestrial-Digital-HD-Receivers/Mutant-Linux-HD-Hybrid-Cable-Terrestrial-Receivers/Mutant-HD2400-HD-Quad-Tuner-Digital-Receiver-2x-DVB-C-T-T2
I would personally go with the Mut@nt HD2400, an excellent receiver, my fave out of all my boxes I have.
Having ViX installed you can achieve everything you want with regards recording, series link (auto timers), pause live tv (time shift), 7 day guide (CrossEPG) etc.
