Best PVR I have tried    Post Date: Apr 26, 2007
Reviewer: Cath from UK/England - See all reviews by Cath

Review:
This is the 4th PVR I've had, and is TWICE as good as any of the others. The Digifusion FVRT95 was basic but easy to use, until it locked up about 6 months later; the Digifusion FVRT145 went back after a week, as it has a fan which stays on even when the unit is only on standby (which PVR's need to be so that they can record booked programmes)- wasteful of electricity, noisy & expensive! The Yamada had incredibly slow EPG and difficult to use (records programmes without their titles, etc). The 9200T eclipses the rest - a bit more expensive, but absolutely worth it! Intuitive to use, with excellent access to information (no truncated titles, switch between radio & tv EPGs instantly, keyword search for programmes, recorded programmes list shows full details). Takes a few mins to load EPG when switched on, but then recalls instantly, including skipping to days ahead. SO easy!!! And it has a USB port to load photos & MP3 files, plus a card slot for top-up tv. Don't bother with the rest!

Correction to my previous post    Post Date: Apr 22, 2007

Review:
The recorder will record radio although the manual says it won't - just make selection from radio programme guide.

Magic piece of kit    Post Date: Mar 20, 2007
Reviewer: Peanut from UK - See all reviews by Peanut

Review:
I have a Sony Freeview LCD tv and a Panasonic muti format DVD recorder which I keep for arciving home movies etc I went for the Humax as Hughes Direct were selling it for £84.99 80 gig version delivered and I didn't require twin tuners or USB facility of the 9000. I have found the unit excellent value it does everything I want with first class picture quality, You CAN pad the start and finish times as required the only odd feature is it will not record radio but who would want to! If you have a freeview tv you can't go wrong with this.
