The initial installation was quick and easy. The tuning needed only a few seconds and the program Sorting really can not be simpler and more logical. The supplied only in the German language manual is extensive, but I do not need because of the intuitively simple operation concept, actually.
While the remote control is very cheap, but this is also an advantage: No more or less superfluous buttons. The keys are labeled in German even!
The picture and sound quality very good, and thanks to the HDMI connection even with SD television signals over my Dreambox slightly better (with Scart connection).
The included HD + card, which is valid for one year from the start, already stuck in the device. Here no activation was (like sky) necessary and RTL HD and VOX HD receivable were immediately in HD. Even if these two stations may sometimes also use upscaled material, the picture quality is far better than in SD.
A few more words on HD +
I have reviewed only the receiver and not the way, as the private broadcasters encrypt their addition to the SD signal emitted HD signal. It has to decide for himself whether he sees this encryption and the required one year renewing annual fee (50) as a participation in the overhead of the non-GEZ-funded station, or as a rip-off.
