+ Easy installation
+ Intuitive and family-friendly user interface
+ Fast start of the device
+ Quick change of programs
But there are also negative points that were partially not even mentioned:
- The manual does not deserve its name. In addition, partial points are there that so does not provide the box in the current software version, for example, there is no way in the user settings, set the standard for TV or radio favorites list. There is also no way to adjust that automatically check for software updates.
- The software update I first want to make to the basic installation via satellite. He has shown me that the version 1.7x is installed and no new software exists. However, this is wrong, since it can be downloaded from the website version V1_8_1_52 (Stand 21.12.2010) and install via USB. Probably I have to check over the Internet, whether for new versions every month.
- In the manual there is no description of how to program recordings. Thank God, the operation is relatively simple, so that one finds out with a little trial and error. But it would be nice if some video format used on the options and the conversion would be described in standard formats - unfortunately non-existent.
- That can not be changed directly from EPG recordings start and end time, is ugly. The Hur is in the subsequent correction in the "Personal Planner". The alternative, to set an overall lead time and overrun time I do not find so appealing. The length of the lag I always depends on when the movie starts. At 20:15 clock there hardly launch delays, so I just 2-3 minutes addition it give here. At the start of broadcasts in the middle of the night I usually give it a precaution 20 minutes.
- That is possible currently no network streaming, I find unfortunate, especially since apparently many video and audio formats are supported.
According to other customers, this should probably be included in an upcoming update. I'm curious.
- The absolutely most serious for me point that was not even mentioned by the previous speakers, is the fact that during a recording, the device allows any other actions, neither playing recordings, other actions. To enter the menu, you have to stop taking pictures. I know that as of any other device, which I had been and is almost a reason to return the unit back. Maybe there's a trick for which, however, is not described in the faulty instruction. Also on the FAQ of the manufacturer to find nothing. I werds try with r a support request. Due to this point, there are only 4 stars. Otherwise I would have given even 5 stars because of the value for money.
Supplement on 02/03/2011:
1. The device has been in the 2 weeks now suspended for the 3rd time
2. The homepage Inverto is exclusively in English
3. I could register myself and got a confirmation email with the login details. But a Support Request to the problems I could not get rid of, as a simple registration is not possible. I have tried it both from the private and the business laptop. It happens when you press the button "Login" just nothing - Toll.
