Customer Review

August DA 100C offers a really good, sharp picture and an acceptable sound for its size. The operation via remote control is quite ok.

But: The EPG does not work (at least on my machine). There are only broadcast times (from ... to) are displayed, but it is not clear to what program you are dealing with.

Moreover, it is not possible to define the numbering of the station itself. You can change the order of the channels you receive any, but can not identify the respective station broadcasting a desired program number. For me, the ARD has, for example, the number 816 and the ZDF the number 805. This means that I have to enter to switch these numbers, or must correspond to the +/- button downshifting as long GO UP or until I have found the desired program. This is really annoying and I can not understand that this device has received so many very positive reviews.

If the picture were not so strikingly good, I would have returned the device immediately. But since I use the appliance in the kitchen to make my time there something entertaining while the SHIFT not much or program information by EPG query, I have kept it, but annoyed me informed about the shortcomings referred to in the Reviews no points.

Conclusion: Actually good device with serious shortcomings.

Addendum: After I read the helpful comment of "Daffodil" and then deactivates the LCN function, now the channel numbering will work properly. So I change my rating of Article 2 to 4 stars.
