    Talking Gigablue Quad+ vs Duo2 VS Mutant HD2400

    Hi all,

    Need some advice my vu duo died so wanted to get a replacement. i want to use twin tuners for both cable and sat. Also want PVR, and open webif from VIX images.
    What box would you recommend?

    I think mutant HD2400 has good hardware, but very little support as its new. So may leave that one out. So i was trying to decide between Gigablue quad+ vs Vuduo 2.

    What are peoples thoughts? what do you recommend? would you recommend any others?


    Thanks in advance

    The Mutant HD2400, has loads of support already, Official Openpli support, OE-Alliance support with ViX and ATV + more.

    My choice would be the HD2400.

    XBMC/Kodi will be available later on in November on the Mut@nt HD 2400, VU+Duo2 don't own one so don't know.
