Compared with the (admittedly about 3-4x more expensive) Terrates provides the DVB-T208 Augsut in combination with Fuugo following options NOT:
- Use a cable connection (even with Terratec depending on type), so you need a DVB-T antenna (not included)
-use Of hidden on the screen (using the mouse in the foreground to be moved) menus and Senderwähl-'Tasten 'in' window mode '(possible only in full screen mode)
- Change the automatically set channel order
- Edit recordings, so eg excision of advertising.. Manual Skip per very imprecise slider is however possible; the recordings are good eh not for archiving (see below)
- Convert images to other formats (also went with Terratec only high quality loss)
- Play the recording files with another program (specifically I can speak only for VLC and MPlayer)
- Affect the tolerance of the start and stop time of recording (therefore you have at the beginning is still the rest of the previous mission and end up missing what, the last few seconds are also silent)
- Start the computer from hibernation to start recording; So umbedingt disable an optionally set automatic hibernation! The program must also be minimized in the background.
- Classical programming recordings (ie manual entry of channels, start, end times, repetitions, etc.). You can program only the program guide (TV program guide), but for some channels no overview provides and for other loads forever after program start. Take time to program what is not so and some stations (z. B. Phoenix) you can not take consequently.
In addition, you must restart the program frequently, because it has somehow suspended again. Once I had to drag the flash drive and plug it back again so that worked - and I react very sensitive, as it eventually separated and then increasingly occurred even when my Terratec, until at last they no longer found the computer.
Man looks at the mentioned Negaitvpunkten that I actually purchased the part primarily for use as a digital video recorder. There is good definitely NOT! The term reliability is also modest.
Primary seems the envisaged by the manufacturer of the device focus on watching live broadcasts of current lie, which also works quite well after my recent experiences.
Overall I would say, the price-performance ratio is right, that is, for a good twenty one should not expect too much ...
