Dear Solo SE users,

Any feedback about the audio/video (sound/picture) quality?
How does it compare to Solo2, Duo or Duo2 models?

The excellent review done by ev0 on this section is missing this audio/video aspects.

Many thanks in advance.

Don't worry about lnb in/out being written upside down, the tuners are switchable between other models so some are produced written 1 way around, some are written the other way around.

It won't affect the performance.

Yes sure, i know that nothing to do with the performance, maybe i was thinking writing mistake, what do you think about the heat? , is that up to normal?, or should have been better some fan to have been installed?, on the CPU or Top, because i have tested lot of satellite receivers, i am re seller, i think the heat is the biggest enemy of the satellite receivers, Thanks!!

I think the heat isn't too bad, I am sure my duo2 is hotter.

Well i bought a Solo SE and went tothe website of open PLI.

I am new at the sattelite boxes, and tried the Original image on the Solo SE and i didn't like it.
A friend of mine uses Open PLI and advised me to use it.
So went to the website to download it, but no image for Solo SE, and they said:

We haven't been asked yet, VU+ haven't supplied us with a BSP layer for it, and we don't have one to test it on.

So at the moment no plans and no date.

But i flashed the Black Hole image on it and i like it!
Maybe it's possible to make a XBMC addon?:p
