For years that jOperation digital recorders, hard disks were inside the housing, I am in my 4 or 5th, the last of the same brand, I would not cite, have passed away a few days apart. So I decided to switch brands, I chose CGV I know for years, not the cheapest but with an excellent reputation. I need a reliable hardware and easy to use as the main user's my wife who is refractory to new technologies. Easy connection, or via Scart or HDMI, HD recording quality is very good, Hdmi we do not see any difference with the direct. To register you must add a USB storage medium, Key or external hard drive. I chose the 1TB external hard drive. The device offers the ability to record two different broadcast simultaneously on two different bouquets of DTT, which is convenient for the number of DTT channels. The unit comes with a remote control. Simple installation, intuitive use. By cons, it does not connect to your computer network and can not become a media center worthy of the name. But I bought it as a Freeview recorder and perfectly fulfills its task.
