NEW Freeview HD Set Top Digi Box FULL HD 1080P Digital TV Receiver Tuner Terrestrial

...which proves to be an excellent replacement for a very old unit which eventually fizzled out; only a couple of small issues - the user manual is printed with so small a typeface, some magnification is needed to be sure one reads it correctly; also, the SCART seems not to fit as readily or as securely as expected into a set which although old has a SCART socket not previously used, so effectively it's as new, and needs a little supporting as its own weight and the additional weight of the antenna cables in and out makes it sag and it tends to come unplugged; once that's sorted it performs very well indeed and my old set has a new lease of life at a very competitive price.

Very good value for the price. Good picture and recording quality and easy to install. Would advise using manual channel scan if your aerial picks up from more than one transmitter as the auto scan will store the programs on a first found basis regardless of signal strength. Marked down 1 star as it can occasionally "drop" a multiplex channel contents into the 800 (unknown) program number range so you need to re-scan that channel. Also the provided user guide does not reflect the remote supplied. Apart from that very pleased with it and would recommend for a simple single tuner / recorder.

Cracking little unit. I bought it to upgrade an HD ready TV with no Freeview HD tuner to be able to receive Sky HD from my Eddison HD distribution box as well as get Freeview HD. Works perfectly. Nice and compact. Be aware that if you want HD you will need an HDMI cable to feed HD into the TV as the SCART is not deigned to do that.

Don't waste your money I bought for a gift for my daughter and when finally set it up worked for hour or so and would de tune it self, change channel and turn itself off! Had the aerial checked and was fine bought a new box and works brill! Customer service was a joke! I paid £35 for a box from curry's and definitely worth it no issues what so ever!!!

I bought this (about 3 weeks ago at the time of writing) as the remote for our small bedroom TV had been mangled by our new pup and rather than get a new remote I got this to not only get a new remote but to also get the RTE channels and the other main channels in HD. The unit arrived very quickly and was very easy to set up and tune-in.Easy to use and the picture quality is quite good. On the downside it is time consuming to arrange your favourite channel list and just after I'd managed to do this the unit tried to update and I lost everything and had to start again. Ironic given that the seller advised that other similar units on sale had software problems. This has happened a further couple of times so not perfect but given the price it's hard to complain too much.Probably acceptable for a second or bedroom TV but I wouldn't recommend for your main TV.

I don't normally write reviews. For the very low price this is remarkable. Setting it up was really easy and the instruction booklet is more than adequate albeit difficult to read due to the small text. You must use the remote to control it, so the sensor must be plugged in. It's true that the remote is a little clunky and the guide is not the sort typically found on more expensive devices, however the guide is very easy to use and once you get used to it, quite acceptable. I have been recording programs via the PVR for the few weeks that I have owned it and it has never missed a beat. The picture quality is excellend via the hdmi connection. You can schedule many recordings over many days/weeks, you only need to ensure that you have sufficient storage on your usb stick. That it records to a memory stick is an advantage to me as it allows to transfer recorded programs to the pc where if need be, I can then play the program on Windows Media Player or VLC etc. Once copied to the pc you can convert the video (mts.) into another file type to suit the needs of any portable player. I have played the recorded mts. video on a different LG smart tv via it's usb port and it works absolutely fine, so mostly I intend to keep with the mts. format. I have only had the device for about a month, so if it goes kaput I will edit this review.

To access tv programmes! Working well!!

It does the job but with some issues. The unit hangs if you leave it on (green led) form more than 24h. Remote control react to short distance and need to pointed directly to the IR device you connect to the unit. Batteries in the box were flat as I discovered because the unit was a bit crazy or not responsive. Remote controll quite small with tiny keys and some time difficut to push on their own. Manual quite useles.
