Review of HUMAX PVR9150T
It has a 160 gigabyte hard drive and will happily save up to a hundred hours of recordings. Double Freeview tuners provide a wide range of viewing and recording options. This gives you the choice of watching one channel while recording a different one or even record two programmes concurrently while viewing a prior recording! In addition, the combination of twin tuners and hard drive permits live TV be suspended, rewound and even edited. Dual tuners also give picture in picture – great for so you can catch up on the football or lottery results while watching a different TV programme. Other nifty functions include a CI card interface for paid television facilities. The fitment of an RS232 socket means that any software upgrades are easily to access via your PC. OTA or Over The Air software upgrades are also possible.
