Hi I am a Topfield freeview PVR user since the very start!
I have had 3 machines, and upgraded and customised them, and done the dreaded capacitor replacement.They have served me well, and the toppy community has been great.
Unfortunately my HDMI equipped model has finally deceased, so I am left with the Scart only 5800. As I now have a new 50" Panny plasma and an Onkyo NR515 receiver I am considering getting a hummy. I have discounted YouView, but given that I have Sky (and 2 spare outputs from the LNB) and also a good Freeview signal that works fine on the Panny for HD channels, would I be better going for the Sat or Terrestrial hummy pvr?
(obviously I could upgrade to Sky HD but I don't want to pay £10 extra a month, and I like the extra recording capacity of a second PVR).
Your views will be appreciated!
