which HD twin input receiver?
« on: June 18, 2010, 12:38:30 PM »
Hi, yet another newbie seeking advice here!! 4fvgdaq_th

i am looking for a new HD reciever, ideally with PVr and twin inputs so i can record one channel and watch another. I "know" the dreambox is the best supported system and the DM8000 has twin inputs, but it is very expensive. I have also seen the Icecrypt HD4000pvr can also meet my requirements, but i have no idea if these are any good, and more importantly if CS is easy to setup on this system.

Secondly am i correct in assuming that with a twin input, only one CS subscription is required, but if i wanted to have another STB in another room, then i would need a second subscription?

thank you very much for your advice and help in advance.
