Any idea when the VU Plus Zero 4K will be available from you?A few weeks ago I ordered the VU Plus Zero 4k from Europe for $165 delivered in 3 days via DHL. Thank you Tunder for your recommendation! This 4k STB is the best 4k STB that I have tested! Blows the Zgemma H7, Octagon SF4008 and the K1 receivers out of the water!
The Zero 4K Blind Scans transponders for DVBS/S2/SX, SD/HD/UHD, in approx. 2 minutes and completes the service scan in approx. 6 minutes. Found over 2600 TV and Radio services on 105w C-band in one blind scan pass in about 8 minutes. The radio services are showing the service names! Currently flipping though and listening to dozens of morning show feeds.
Scans and plays the Music Choice 125w VCM channels (with video), 16APSK, H.265 and flawless 4k. Upconverts and downconverts, so it doesn't matter if you have an HD or UHD TV. It features a built-in hotspot / server and time can be set to reference NTP. The DVR works fine with all formats (including radio). Live stream and DVR playback of 4:2:2. Yes, the teletext service works.
Watching local TV with an ATSC USB dongle and listening to FM radio with a RTL DVBT USB dongle via a powered USB Hub.
So far I've tested the OpenATV and SatdreamGR E2 images and dual boot. Takes about 2 minutes to swap between images. OpenPLI is my favorite, but the blind scan addon needs to be updated, so will patiently wait for their upcoming build.
For anyone interested in jumping on the 4k train, finally a STB that I would recommend!
How much do I like the Zero 4k? Am working on getting some to resell in North America.
Working on it, but in the mean time... the Zero 4K is available now from many European resellers.
No rush. Happy to wait for US seller with US support.
No rush for me either. If I bought one now I would also have to buy a 4K display I don't have either

If buying out of the EU, contact the seller to arrange the export price without VAT. This savings will be equal to receiving free shipping!
The last channel list I installed on my ZGemma Does a Blindscan Now But i had to do a update.
Tek2000 Discription now says "
Note: The receiver comes flashed with the latest OpenATV firmware and up-to-date FTA channel listing for satellites 8°W - 139°W.
Note: This receiver is programmed with software blindscan for c-band, ku-band and dbs satellite signals. Find those 4K wild feeds today!
"
If you buy one now you wont have to do this but this is what it did to get it up to speed.
As for 4:22 I think I can view them if I stream it from the Zgemma H7 to my tablet or VLC on a computer Like how I use to with a Amiko a3. But at least I dont have to install a VLC Plug in with the Zgemma to work on the computer!
Is your Zgemma OpenTV image the 30min fast / 2hr accurate mode, software enabled blindscan?
In the video you posted at the 5:15 mark, it indicates that a "FAST BLINDSCAN" for KU takes 45 minutes. And then its gets worse. If you want C-Band DVB-S2 it shows "90 minutes" (at the 9:26 mark).
That's after you shell out $229. I wouldn't want to use the ZGemma H7 even if it was given to me.

The VU Plus Zero 4k performs a hardware blind scan of DVBS/S2/SX modulations in a single scan between 4 to 8 1/2 minutes depending on the services on the satellite.
While time remaining for the scan is displayed in some images, I don't recall seeing it on the E2 images that I have tested.

Do you know if there is a way to play a live channel on Kodi through the Enigma box? I know you can add a link via a service #. But what about playing what ever the current service is, so you don't have to have a link for every channel, but rather one link on what ever is playing on the enigma box. I'm trying to see if i can play a live 4:2:2 on the Kodi.
I bought a VU+ Zero 4K from World of Satellites in the UK. Really fast shipping via DHL. I recommend asking your credit card company to approve international purchases before ordering. Saves being denied like I was, before letting them know.
