The predicate bestsellers here at Amazon has the small all-rounder more than deserved!
OPTICS:
Visually see the Receiver from fine. Neither particularly modern nor old-fashioned. He is really very small. The dislike some fallen, some also. I think it's fine.
The remote control is pleasantly thin and light. The layout is clear and corresponds to the standard one expects from most devices mitlerweile accustomed. The only drawback, the key click slightly when pressed. does not bother me. TV purists, however, could feel disturbed about it.
(The most important) FUNCTIONS:
EPG
The EPG (Electric Program Guide) is a kind of TV magazine in the TV, so you can visit us at once, which show just where runs. This is kept very clear and even displays information about the shipment.
Eg for "Two and a one half" is not only indicated that the broadcast is currently running, but what a result and a short "summary" what happens.
Teletext
fast and fluid. no complaints
Recording:
not tested. The menu for this is but kept intuitive and simple. You need a USB mass storage. For this purpose, either a USB hard drive or a USB stick to use.
Special function (the others do not have)
Now come what I like best at the Receiver and that's why I consider him a second time to buy for the living room.
The Receiver has an optional pre-programmed and sorted channel list of ASTRA. There, the stations are located close to perfect and it saves the hassle of sorting and favourisieren its transmitter.
In the squares 1-30 all important stations are already sorted. Both ARD HD, ZDF HD, WDR HD, Pro7, Pro7Maxx, RTL Nitro, RTL, VIVA / Comdey Central, N24, NTV, Phoenix, Kabel 1, Sat 1, RTL 2, Super RTL, DMAX, KIKA, Servus TV HD and so on .... So everything you just as Otto-Normal-consumer look.
Because of this feature, I think about even with the reciever again to buy for the living room.
RECEPTION:
with a flat antenna from HUMAX anytime a super picture. Even in the rain / clouds / storms. No complaint.
Caution: If you want to have the private channels in HD, or want to use Sky, you should fall back to another station because this one does not have a card slot.
All in all:
Over priced, very good alternative to expensive equipment.
Would recommend with a clear conscience the Receiver! Am absolutely satisfied!
