Re: Mini Scart Freeview Digital TV Receiver & Recorder
Just set one of these up; works fine after an hour or two of figuring things out.
I had an initial problem with receiving some channels, but this was solved when I checked the connections to the aerial. (The "faulty" connection worked fine on the previous freeview box; maybe this one is fussier about the signal quality.)
Main problem is documentation: it comes with a very limited "manual", and I didn't find the menus and set-up very helpful. Examples: had to poke around a bit to find out how to turn sub-titles off permanently (they're on by default, and the suggested solution in the little pamphlet only switched them off temporarily); how to maximise the picture when playing recordings; and how to turn on automatic background recording for pause/rewind.
Maybe I'm getting old, but the solutions weren't very intuitive to me. That said, I'm very happy with it now I've figured those things out.
