Re: Best Freeview Box

There are Panasonic DVD Recorders with built-in Freeview Tuner and probably other branded ones, but whether you need a DVD Recorder is another thing.

Re: Best Freeview Box

I have looked but can't find.

What is the cheapest Freeview Box with at least an in-built 40GB hard drive? Thanks

Also, with in build hard drives, do I need any other equipment to record? Or is it just a case of plug in like a regular DTT box and I can record straight to it, or do I need some sort of other equipment to be able to record?

Basiclly, can it record straight out of the box? Thanks

Re: Best Freeview Box

Yes you can record straight outta box if it has built-in HDD.
Cheapest I found are with 80GB HDD

Humax PVR8000 (Graded Stock)
DigiFusion FVRT200 (Refurbished)
Daewoo DSD9520

Some user reviews from DS
