Customer Review

the above product was purchased from me, because it is said to have HD capabilities.

For the price not bad, so I was doubting the whole from the outset against.

There is a small in its dimensions dropouts receiver.
The remote has a spongy pressure point.

After switching the unit immediately moves to the Setup mode.

This reflects already the biggest weakness of the device: its software.
21 stations were allegedly found during the search. In fact, then were stored 41.

The software of the receiver is similar to beta.

While it is possible to change the channel order.
The program number under which they were originally found during the search is not changed at the same time.
Always stays the same.
If ARD found and move under the number 1 as the first transmitter will ARD on the transmitter position 9 later
ARD still displayed with the 1 at the transmitting position 9. So what I have so far at any of my receiver
or had TVs.
The Teletext always only works for a short time after switching.
The audio does not always synchronized with the speakers.
The receiver will start repeatedly in the German language edition. Suddenly then in Polish.
Sometimes a station is displayed as a black picture. The Image menu of the receiver to the transmitter is still working, only the program is not displayed. No sound or picture. However, it is not a problem when receiving before, because my other DVB-T receiver received very well a program. This receiver also receives all other programs, only this channel he does not want to show just.

The signal strength of the device is otherwise fine.
The image reception is okay too.
It is but too bright, trendy and there are too undifferentiated moved the color in the foreground.
Since there is now also for this great price better DVB-T Receiver, which represent a contrast image.

But I did not so bought the receiver for his SD capabilities.

The receiver is touted with SD MPEG 4 and HD MPEG 4 skills (- when terrestrial reception mind you). In addition, it should be multimedia-capable even via the USB port and many well-known formats such as DivX, MKV, Xvid, X264 etc on a connected hard drive or play back a USB stick.

Nothing of all this is the case with me.

It receives a single DVB-T2 transmitter.
(DVB-T channels are installed.)

The PVR function is not available, at least at the receiver with the German software version 1.0.10.
You should follow later via software update.
The software to the device is advanced for the Polish market most.
For this already exists, the version 1.0.18.
But also the English is already on.
If you want to install one of these on the product marketed in Germany Model (It could be one of these updates is already supporting the PVR function) one obtains the following error message: an update of the software is not possible because the selected software does not match the hardware.
This error message always appears, regardless of the software version to apply.

What remains is a mediocre thoroughly DVB-T device.
Other DVB-T receivers provide for this money today a clearer, higher-contrast image.
