after a long product visit I chose 8750 CI + for the XORO HRK and do not regret it. A top device with excellent value for money (at this price you get absolutely nothing better).
Pro:
- Super picture quality (even without HD - to receive on CI + HD neutered anyway recording, coils, etc. -> Recommendation: See [...])
- Possibility for recording to watch another program (+ analog antenna output / signal loop through over you even can still provide another TV or on the same device via antenna socket independent of the receiver with program signal)
- Recognize every one of my hard drives (320 GB, 1 TB, whether external power supply or via USB)
- Menu very good and easy to understand even for people with little technical knowledge
- Connect the disk to a PC for recording - Video (* .ts file) without problems at the PC playable with the appropriate player
- Second USB port for additional storage disks / sticks (music, pictures, videos, ...)
- Timeshifting (time shift) by external hard drive (can also run program and press later recording wenns I like ... anyway everything is saved from the moment at which I have switched to appropriate program)
Contraindications:
- EPG (getting used to - you have to switch the EPG to set on respective stations recording - times he program displaying only a transmitter, 5 times, 10 times ... urgently needs to be revised, but can live with it)
- Teletext (less than full screen and blurred ... but how often do you need today nor teletext ???)
VERY IMPORTANT:
After program setting I had with the private broadcasters in SD-resolution picture and sound striking asynchronously (just in language so uncomfortable that you immediately turn off) - but you can resolve this issue, here the necessary instructions:
Go into the setting of the AV delay:
Press the VOL- or VOL + directly followed by the underlying GREEN button. You can now sound with the VOL + / VOL- to +/- 500ms delay and to adjust the image (for me was the synchronicity picture / sound setting of -170 ms necessary).
CONCLUSION:
It was absolutely worth to buy this device. I can only recommend! Only those who want to simultaneously record 2 programs need another device (Twin Tuner) - Nothing better for this price just can not get you. Any known format (ts, mpg, avi, jpg, mp3, etc. ...) play, does not consume a lot of power and is easy to handle.
Despite the EPGs, the device gets 5 stars from me, because you after a few times has enough exercise that you can also order can handle well in recording programming. The unit has everything you need, just great!
