In order yet to address individual weaknesses of the device, which are noticed in the course of time:
- During recording, it is for some time Occasionally, the image freezes and the receiver must be restarted. The recording must be made then by the user again.
- The unit takes some time to start on from standby. However, other devices start instantly.
- Unfortunately, the menu is a bit strange. Unconventional is mainly that you have to enter the recording time in place of the stop time in the Timer Programming. Are you accidentally stop time, as I was used to from other devices is that recording can be incomplete or very memory-intensive. Also the playback from the archive during recording via pressing the "DVR Info" button is possible opens up unintuitive.
- Upon completion of recording a time resembled current playback is stopped and you may have to the point where you stopped playing, tedious search.
- The LEDs on the front are nearly useless, whilst having something cheap impression. However, the case processing is in order.
- The remote control may have a slightly higher haptics.
- An optical audio output does not exist. However, there are in addition to HDMI Not yet analog outputs.
My software recommendation for lossless possible burn SDTV recordings to DVD-Video discs:
1) "PVAStrumento" to demux the TS files recording with [demux]. The settings can be maintained. The software now extracts all video and audio streams of selected TS file and stores them individually. Often the advertising blocks are in separate files so that these "recording fragments" may be the same will be deleted.
(Alternative Software to demux: "Project X")
2) "Mpeg2Schnitt" invite for cutting (MPV files and to the appropriate audio files. The audio files are sometimes available in several different formats. Sometimes even in AC3 format, which is preferable 5.1 radiations particularly in Dolby Digital . Always cut to the I-frames. In a pinch quiet "abstain" on a few frames. More detailed instructions are available on the net)
3) "IfoEdit" for DVD authoring. First [Author new DVD] start, while the video generated with Mpeg2Schnitt (.mpv) and audio file (mpa) and specify a target folder. The specified destination folder must exist however, because the program may appear to create folders! If necessary, So do not be surprised about the error. After the process to close the program again and restart. Open one of the newly created IFO files now with [Open] - what automatically also linked other files are read - and start [Get VTS Sectors]. Then create with [Disk Image] a DVD image (.img file), which can be loaded with suitable burning software. In Windows simply right-click the .img file and then [disk image burn].
