I am looking for a Humax DVB-S2 STB with PVR and iplayer capability.
Single or Twin tuner (no preference).
It MUST support MHEG-IC, to allow for iplayer services.

Can anyone suggest a suitable box?

My search has brought up this: Humax FoxSAT-HDR HD FreeSat+ PVR 1TB

I am not greatly experience with Humax boxes so advice is welcomed. Thanks

I now have this box, it is quite nice.
The iplayer is working too, thanks for the tip.

There are two things I'm a little confused at, one is how to configure it for USALS or motorised dish? and, if it is sold as a freesat, how come it doesn't have a smartcard reader (for a freesat card?) only 1x CAM slot.
