Standards well, extras with deductions

It was important:
-that you can record while watching another program;
-that there is a good EPG, which is equal to at power available for all programs;
-that you can conveniently program in the EPG;
-that the operation is simple and works quickly.

These points are properly met by Kathrein 913! Finally HD reception, very good image in the SD programs, fast zapping (sometimes with small pops in the audio), many radio stations. If an HD program is being recorded, the selection of another, yet the programs available is reduced. If you dodge while recording on SD program (ie ARD held ARD HD), then are most public and private parallel available.

I have an external Intenso 500GB HD connected, the sound is not heard, has no start-up delay, is just there at your fingertips. Turns on with the receiver on and off.
The launch of the system takes counted 20 seconds, the is not very fast, but acceptable.
To CI / CI + I can not say anything. To use the home network also not yet.

I do not like:
-that my TV (Sony) will not be turned over HDMI. Off work but. Maybe a bug that will be fixed through updates.
-that PiP (picture-in-picture) in HDTV does not really work, one sees only still images, according to program changes may also only a black box. In SD programs PiP goes but super.
-that only the disappointing Shoutcast Internet radio is via the internet connection in addition to YouTube (Light) is available, in which many of the displayed station do not work because the transmission rate is too low (!) is. More Internet apps, media libraries or even a browser are not (yet) available.
-that the announced tool for editing the list of programs on your PC is not yet available.
-that WMA audio files and MP4 video files can not be played back (from a Sony camera). But MP3 and JPG are problems of connected storage media (USB, HDD) playable.

Conclusion: All the standard functions of a satellite receiver are well served. The extras such as web access, Internet radio, there is still potential for optimization.
