I want to also ask if this is the latest and best DVB-S2X tuner for the HD51?
I also want to know the benefit of the Si2166D over the original DVB-S2 (think it's AVL6211)
Hope someone can give answers.

The S2X tuner is more sensitive than the previous one. All newer ones came shipped with the better tuner.
So one benefit is you will have better reception

S2 = first one
S2X = newer one
As far as I can remember, there is no extra setting. You just configure it for the dish/satellite. When you scan, it will find the services that it is capable of.

What are you trying to scan/watch?
Have a peek at yours will show the difference.

Hopefully this is right.
An S2X tuner will allow you to scan/view multistream channels. There are just a few transponders that have these services on 33E, 13E, and 5W.
There is no benefit to 28.2 users other than the increased sensitivity of the tuner.
