  It's much faster than a 4000/5000T. Especially in the epg setting recordings. It does still retain the cancel option after setting a recording. 99 times out of a 100 you want to go back to add more recordings. Rturn though is near instantaneous.

  Someone asked for an all singing and dancing solution. No one said it would be cheap. What other boxes can record from 8 different satellite transponders at the same time using just two cable except possibly a Sky-Q box that costs a fortune to rent and you do not even own it. Frankly your...

  Enigma 2 based boxes with DVB-T2 and DVB-S2 multiple tuners can do all that. They are a tad complex and the really capable ones are expensive. Since neither are freeview or freesat certified there is no requirement to encrypt a FTA stream when saving it to disk. So perfectly legal to own and...

  Not at all HDR is way superior to ordinary 2160p . Is it Dolby Vision or HLG capable ? Have you a 4K HDR optical drive that can play 4K - HDR disks ? The test content when it was available was amazing.

  How ?? Afaik There is no known way of decrypting existing HD recordings on a Foxsat-HDR only preventing future recordings being encrypted as they are recorded. Had they been on a HDR-FOX-T2 that's a totally different animal.
