Advice on Sly compatible boxes

$

Hi guys. I'm new to all this so please be gentle, but I am reasonably technical.

I just got a Openbox F5s for receiving UK satellite services and the CCAM setup. It works way better than I thought it would but the box is only single tuner and has some HDMI issues for me with my amp and TV (cutting out ARC for example).

Is it only the Openbox / Skybox that can do the above, or can the more expensive boxes also be configured to use the exact same CCAM services? Looking at something like the VU+ Duo 2 as something good enough to replace a Sky HD box.

Also, can any of these boxes also run XBMC since they are Linux based at the same time, or is there alternative software stacks that give XBMC like functionality (for using the many useful plugins on XBMC for streaming)?

Thanks in advance.
