    Tm-2t

    Hi all,

    I am thinking about getting ones of these boxes and would like to know what others think of it? Are there any major problems with it right now? What is the best image to use?

    Thanks in advanced

    There are numerous issues. Search this forum. Issues go back some time though new drivers are being tested. A friend has one and is fed up with the problems. Personally I would skip to something else.

    Hi, the TM-2T has serious drivers issues with recording, live tv viewing and other issues too.

    Please avoid, or you will regret it. I am selling mine and getting a Venton Unibox HD2. I suggest you do the same or get a VU+DUO. Have a look on google.

    Hello,

    Thanks for the advice. Is it really that bad? The reviews make it sound the best out there. VU+DUO is too expensive for me. I only want to spend around £230 max. I would like the box to support HD channels along with Sky3d. Any other suggestions?

    I've never had any major issues with mine and in fact love it. Saying that though I don't use it for recording, only viewing.

    Does this box output 1080p and 3D?

    Yes it does, but it's crap due to the issues it has.

    Get the Venton Unibox HD2. It is better than the 2T and you can buy it from 209.00 including delivery. It has no major issues and works very well, from what i've read. The 2T even has problems with streaming from the box.

    Does the Venton support full 1080p and 3D? From what I have found it only support 1080i

    Tm-2t

    Venton currently get great reviews and are in your price range. If you want to get as much as possible from your new toy avoid the T2. I do a huge amount of recording, use streaming plugins, stream between devices and more ( I have a Vu+ Duo (not Duo 2) and a Gigablue Quad) and both can handle the load. TM may sort it it out but issues have been around at least a year. Save yourself some grief, read how many posters have complained/asked Qs/sounded pi""ed off in the last year and choose something else.

    I love what can be done with decent E2 boxes but am pi""ed off and I only help my mate with his issues.

    I see you posted on the HD2 thread - that's a good direction to go.

    Yes to both. Yes, there are a few issues with the box but they're not as bad as some make out. Find yourself an image that suits your needs (Vix 683 for me), and that should do the trick till a new image is released with updated kernel/drivers.

    AFAIK no channel broadcasts in 1080P so no biggy but box can.

    All broadcom based Enigma2 boxes support 3D so yes.

    Please listen to the people on here saying avoid tm -2t. I read the reviews and bought the box 5 month ago, I wanted a box that was able to be a replacement for my sly box, however from day one the machine had issues. the recording issues make this box unreliable and only good for watching one channel, which you can do with a cheaper unit. I've got no doubt the Tm-2T will be a great box if/when the drivers ever get sorted but for now its not. I've recently purchased a Venton unibox HD2 which is brilliant, it does everything I've asked it to do. No recording issues and a great replacement for my sly box. Its a great price too.
