*A PVR means fully-featured recording settop-box, Zapper means watching only, no recording, no streaming.
*B The vendor may sell both single and dual tuners, so there may be one or two tuners in one slot.
*C This excludes USB harddisks, because they can always be connected regardless. Connectors are (e)SATA unless otherwise noted.
*D Limited transcoding means: only one (small) resolution, quality is poor. Standby means: only operable in standby.
*E Limited means: SD full motion and HD I-frames only (pictures gets updated 1-2 times a second)

Dream Multimedia (end-of-sale models, no longer supported)
**Note** that OpenPLi has stopped with all **active** support for hardware from Dream Multimedia. Newer models, including dm500hd v2, dm800se v2, dm7020hd v2 and the dm7080hd will not receive support from OpenPLi due to DMM closing up their sources. Please see the official OpenPLi statement on the homepage
Support for these end-of-sale models is "as-is". Other than the OpenPLi version listed in the table, there will be no further development for these STB's.
