Jumping in the commercial break: At Kathrein, it is now also possible to configure the duration of a jump. We have programmed 15 sec.. In addition, a small preview window, so you very accurately lands after the commercial breaks. Pressing on the directional pad you can jump as many times forward or back. When Technisat you can apparently make only fast forward. An absolute no-go for us and the return ticket for the Technisat.
Handling: Through 5 years our UFS 922 has of course very adapted to the logics of Kathrein software, but against the Technisat operation is much more intuitive. With the Back button to rewind the menus back by return. When Technisat you had to help again with the colored buttons. The menu in the 924 works of modern than on the 922 - without being confusing.
Recording control: The Kathrein it is possible without any problems, take relay broadcasts targeted. The options it is when you create the recording plan possible, specifically include only the current season and not repeat old seasons. This function does not exist at the Technisat.
EPG: Kathrein provides core set of 14-day program preview; Technisat only 7 days. In Kathrein also Searches can be saved. All broadcast the next 14 days are then proposed on "My advice". We came across a lot of interesting programs about this feature, we would have otherwise never seen.
Certainly, the test phase for the Technisat was too short to really get to know all the subtleties of the device, but the clear winner in our opinion is the Kathrein. Priced are both on the same level. From us there is therefore a strong buy recommendation for the UFS 924th
