Dear all,
As the title already suggests I am thinking of buying either a Vu+ Solo2 or a Vu+ Duo2.
I basically already researched and know about the differences, strong points and weaknesses of each box. Nevertheless there is one point which I could not get clear.
They both have the same processor (CPU) with the only difference being in the RAM (solo2 has 1Gb while duo2 has 2GB) and flash (but this probably has no impact on transcoding).
I would like to know if there are any differences when it comes to transcoding.
Does the solo2 transcode as well as the duo2 or will I be better with the second box? Is the transcoding very RAM dependant? Can we choose what bit rate I want to transcode the content to? For example I only have a 3Mb/s upload speed and I would only want to use 1Mb/s for the streaming upload. Is it possible to adjust the quality in order to fit the upload speed?
When I say transcoding I am referring to out of home network one (over the internet so that I can watch it on the go), not the streaming to devices on your internal network.
Many thanks in advance for all your help.
