The basic installation is done very easily and quickly. The management of the program sequence is a bit annoying, but as far as well to accomplish. This must be done only once so happily.
It is true that the remote control is quite small, but that came to me personally rather contrary. Anyway, I found the layout of the keys quite intuitive.
That looped through a VCR to quality problems in the representation leads, I can confirm. If you want to grind through no second device, this point can be neglected. For me, the receiver than I looped through one device, but both devices always well recognized and connected automatically to the correct source.
Positives:
- Very good reception power (in much more expensive devices I had much worse reception on the same rod antenna and with the same terminals)
- Easy handling
- Useful German-language instruction
- Unit has a sleep timer
- Device has an EPG (Electronic Program Guide)
- Switch on the front panel
negative:
- Reduction of the image quality, when a second device is connected
- Managing the program order
Everything is all for me a good useful device for small money.
