Thanks guys,

I now understand the requirements and how to take advantage of a second tuner and I believe I will go with alternative 2 there Ekkostar
While none of the boxes can be considered "cheap" I'm not in a situation where I have to pick one or another based on their price.

The Ultimo/Duo it is... even though it might be more then I currently need... who knows... might be me answering questions here in a years time!

Thanks for all input and explanation of the technical terms!
