A FAQ of the official election office page : http://valasztas.hu/en/onkval2014/426/426_0.html
I can describe the voting system for BUDAPEST, AFAIK (trying to understand myself):
You can vote for persons at 3 levels: local constituency - district - whole Budapest
* a representative in your small constituency (only a few streets) sending the winner into the district assembly,
* a "mayor" for the district government - the winner is also part of the assembly of budapest (since this summer)
* a "major-mayor" , head of the Budapet government
** the Assembly for Budapest will contain the 23 new district mayors AND 9 district-mayoral candidates who were not elected (so, their votes are not lost) weighted according to the district population, these lists are the so-called "compensation lists". But this is only open for candidates of parties which managed to nominate so. in at least 12 districts, so need to check that for your favourite.
** I believe, seats in district assemblies can also be gained from votes for non-winners, i.e. "compensation lists", so even smaller parties who did not win any constituency may get into a district parliament if they get enough votes (5% at least).
Here is a table with the political parties "available" - but of course many candidates are "independent"

As you can guess, I did not find a good description of the voting system so far, even the Hungarian Wiki page is outdated (rules for Budapest were changed in the summer).
Somewhat scetchy descriptions in English (warning:these are political analyses, not dry, non-partisan texts):

Corrections, and additional description for non-Budapest constituencies are welcome!
(It is similar, if you replace "districts" with the town/village and "budapest" with the megye in the above description you get something near the truth. I think for megyei assembly there are party-lists).
