    No. The Mut@nt HD51 does though.

    In the main description it mentions DVB-S2x, but in the Select Tuners tab no mention of them. Ask WoS themselves for confirmation/reassurances.

    I would like to add my 4 pennyworth.

    I would recommend a Vu+ 4k box, myself I have a ultimo 4k with 4 tuners, it also has a HDMI in port that I use for my mag box.

    It runs IPTV very well, as I can edit the m3u lines and put them into folders better than I can on the Mag box.

    You can even have Cccam now.

    Gigablue UHD 4K and Quad 4K are nice boxes, but no extra PNP satellite tuners yet. You could use the FBC tuners with a Unicable LNB. The Gigablue sat tuners will be S2X.

    Can you provide the model number for the the Gigablue sat tuners that will be S2X? I am interested in getting one if the S2X tuners will blindscan and do the APSK transponders like the Zero 4K does.
