Hi folks,
I just wanted to ask how good is ultimo on streaming hd channells?
My duo is preaty useless at that.
Works fine on my Duo. Are you trying to stream them across a WiFi link, like to a wireless laptop? If so that is the problem.Originally Posted by snakie
Indeed all VU+ & ET boxes work fine on streaming HD video. Apart from a wireless network (that almost certainly gives bandwidth problems on HD-streaming) a possible cause is the PC you are streaming to (as HD decoding requires a pretty mature CPU).
Anyway: don't blame you DUO, there's nothing wrong with that.

I don't blame that box -I love vu duo(just want to get best out of it).
HD TV seems to be recorded at roughly 1.5MB / second so I don't know why it wouldn't stream fine over a decent wireless network?
None of the smartphone / tablet apps support HD streaming so I would assume the limitation is with them rather than the wireless network!
Did you try it?

It's not as simple as that. HD channels can easily reach 17Mbps in moments of peak activity. On a Wireless G network (54Mbps) average data throughput after error correction is 22Mbps, and that is when there is 100% signal quality. Move the tx and rx aerials just a few meters apart and you won't get anywhere near that rate. Anyway the proof of the pudding is in the eating; HD channels stream fine over a wired home network, but not a wireless one.
