EPG could have more features ; the Digital Stream DHR8205U has an even better picture
Stylish and feature-laden, the Philips is an excellent Freeview HD+ box

A nice unit with good sound and picture quality even in standard definition in HD it is truly excellent, it is virtually silent in use

EPG cuts off current channel (No Picture in Picture or sound) until cleared when it returns unless altered.
Avis d'utilisateur (reevoo.com)
it looks good
if all you want is the equivalent of a video recorder then this is for you. If however you want something more like Sky + then avoid. Bite the bullet and get yourself a Humax.
