Lousy product overall
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is not user friendly. The manual doesn't cover how to get your external drive to pair with the receiver, and it's difficult to understand how to setup the converter box. The only thing that is easy is scanning for your channels. If you record two shows back to back you will lose about two minutes of the beginning of the second show.

Converter Box thumbs down
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No long review. Waste of money. It's not worth the time and effort to purchase & try to set it up. I remember these used to be free of charge & now the cost is ridiculous.

Don’t easte your money
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought this converter would be better than the last one I bought, but actually it was worse. It only lasted 4 months and the programing started to get scrambled after just 2 months, not worth my time or money, hopefuly this will save someone else the headache that I went through.

Doesn’t work

It does not work like a DVR
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't understand how anyone can use this... It records and will pause TV but the processor is so slow it is not worth keeping. It does not work like a DVR... you cannot pause and skip forward like some of us are use to. I returned it as it's worthless. I do not understand why Bestbuy sells such junk.

Works perfect
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works perfect. You get a ton of free tv stations and a bunch of old school tv programs.

Did not work for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Installed a digital antenna and had many HD channels available on new LED TV. Tried this converter box on a couple of older CRT TVs and the box found no channels. Was told by the manufacturer that it is the antenna.

Audio not in sync with video
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There is no audio sync adjustment. This means that none of your audio will actually match what you see on the screen. The audio will be delayed from when you se their lips move. It is a waste of money.

Super basic
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Maybe I didn't read the description closely enough. But it leads me to believe there was at least a harddrive or built in memory of some kind. Talks about connecting a memory card via USB but that seemed like ADDED feature. Also settings and set up seem rudimentary and clunky.

Not worth buying
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does not work well. The free tuners from the analog to digital switch over from years ago work far better.
