Teknikal HD Freeview Set Top Box Receiver Plus Recorder for Digital TV Channels Tuner HDMI / Scart Outputs USB Memory Slot DVB-T Digi Box 4 Switchover

Rejuvenated an old tv and reasonable price to make it worthwhile. Simple to install.

This recorder works quite well for me, and better than I expected for the price. Some have said that it will not record HD channels, but this one does, and plays back successfully. I found that an external hard disk was not reliable and had problems with a 64gb USB stick, so am using a 32gb USB stick formatted as NTFS. A super-fast USB stick makes no difference as this only uses USB 2 anyway.

Very cool

Had this set top box for 6 days and it has failed. During setup, couldn't get out of factory test screen. Box wouldn't react to remote, but eventually managed to get it installed. However it switched off programme and started scrolling through stored programmes. Managed to restore programmes, for it to happen again. Now box doesn't switch on or off with remote, red power light is permanently on and programmes can be viewed on TV and we have to switch the box off by switching power off at the socket. But still each time the box is switched on, the factory test card appears and has to be got rid of by using the exit button on the remote. Tried to apply for a refund via Amazon, but told I have to give seller 2 days to reply. What happens if seller is not cooperative, do I get my refund, WHO KNOWS.

Box looks the same as Clarity. Easy plug and play. Like all these cheap boxes the recording function is limited and gor some reason won't record BBC4. But gets channels ok and is fine for a second tv. The remote is the weak spot. Difficult to use, not well built so likely to fail as my last one did For the price and as backup it's fine but for a main pvr I'll be splashing the cash on a proper one st some point.

Item arrived as described, well packaged and on time.

Excellent Product! Highly Recommend!

I chose this freeview box as it had more stars than other ones on Amazon and it was a good price, less than £25. Easy to set up. Picture quality is excellent, the information that appears on the tv screen is very clear. The remote control though is not easy to use, the numerical buttons are very small and close together. It has to be pointed directly to the receiver to work, waving it around in a nonchalant manner in the general direction won't do. Parts of the instructions are not very clear and the screenshots are very dark and unreadable. The instructions talk about the media centre and youtube, these features are grayed out on my set, I don't see how they can work as there is no facility to connect to a modem. I'm glad it uses a USB stick ( up to 32 Gb ) as all my previous freeview boxes have failed due to a hard drive fault. An external hard drive can be plugged in, up to 1 Tb. There seems to be no facility for deleting recordings, I have to put the USB stick into a computer to do this. So, 4 stars for the money seems like good value.
