Interesting Deals in Der Vaterland

For some odd reason German Supermarkets are always having these multi sat receiver deals, but, what caught my eye was this pretty cool (as an idea, not in looks) hot-swap HHD DVB-T Receiver/PVR from SkyMaster.

Either way, it's all jibberish to me....

That PVR though, are there 2 versions there? One for DVB-S (DXR-8000) and on for DVB-T (DTR-4000)? As I said, German's all jibberish to me so I haven't a clue what it says...

The box in the pic seems to have the Sat-receiver's model on it...

I think your car looks funny too......

Typisch T_G, hehe. He's right BTW. Do I care? Not at all. I was in a rush: Next!

Why did I post the pic? You know the score. Manufacturer's make a couple of versions of their HDD recorders, say like 160GB & 250GB (price diff. extreme) - and promptly firmware limit them so you can't do a DIY upgrade yourself.

For 2CV sorry about the text. I thought you all might just be interested in the pics and prices. You are right, I was in a rush, the one shown is the SAT receiver So, Sorry, again.

Digital Satellite Receiver DXR 8000.
Storage space for 4000 channels
DiSEqC 1.0 & 1.2

Digital DVB-T Receiver DTR 4000
Storage space for 1000 channels

Options for both the DXR 8000 & DTR 4000
Video recorder option by means of a standard PC hard drive up to 240GB (doesn't say what speed - I'd go for a slow one).
Auto Recognition and formatting of HDD.
S-VHS o/p
2x SCART o/p


Sold without HDD.

As for the sat stuff: Quad LNB with integrated multi switch (DiSEqC 1.0), Storage for 2000 programmes, OSD/MENU (doesn't say what languages), EPG, Software upgrade via satellite, 2 SCART outs, and a remote control for each unit.

The SKYMaster looks like a Trabbant - but gets my juices going nevertheless.

.

Have Fun, Moo.

Looks interesting, but it's over there, and I'm over here (without much money after that £20 BSB dish!!!), and I have no spare hard drives...

Nah Nah!

Don't you like the idea of hot-swapping though (actually, I am sure they recommend that you turn the device off first - but you get the idea).

I have a Samsung HDD PVR (80GB) - wanted to upgrade the drive but the firmware won't let me

Have Fun, Moo.
