Perfect match
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased so I could record shows from OTA that come on when I am at work or asleep. It takes a usb 2.0 flash drive or external hard drive. I purchased a 3.0 usb 2 tb hard drive. It is backward compatible to 2.0 usb. I had a 4tb external drive that would register but not work. I assume the reason is because it was too large and self powered. The new one I purchased receives its power from the PVR usb connection. So if you want to be sure you can record...get a drive that is either a 2.0 usb or backward compatible to 2.0. Also, be sure it does not have to have its own power source. You can program it to record 1 time, daily or weekly. You can also set it to just change to the channel for viewing. Once the video is recorded you can edit the title to what you want. Pull the drive and transfer the video to another storage device to watch later. While hooked to my TV via the hdmi (not included) it has it's own volume control. It really increases the level of sound from my sound bar. Its incredible. This has been the best $125.00 combined that I have spent.

Works well, as advertised.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well, as advertised. As with any tv requiring an over the air antenna, you may have to move the antenna throughout the room, to fine tune the station, depending on what channel you are watching. This is no fault of the converter box. Thank you!

Works ok but not the best
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off it says dual tuner but I can only watch the station I am recording. If I change the channel it will record the channel I am watching. Also it use to record 5 programs when I was not at home. But for some reason it stopped. The only way to get it to do that again is to delete my list of programs to record and set them back up.

My Review of Digital TV Converter
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty good item. Only lacks in complete description of tv shows. Just gives a general term instead of a specific show title.

Not worth the money or frustration
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well to bring in OTA, but that's about it. Program guide is clunky, only shows 1 channel per screen. Once recording starts not able to add different recording for later time or adjust any settings. Does not allow to watch a different channel while recording in process. Playback is lousy. Skips, freezes, and drops out / shuts down playback. No resume function on dropout.Poorly written instructions, and very poor customer service. And remote is clunky. Returning ASAP!

Don’t waste your money
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The major complaint with this set top box is that the remote control won’t work unless it is pointed directly at the unit’s infrared eye. This is impossible unless you get up off your seat and move within a few feet of the unit.Even then,the remote fairly responds. In summary,please don’t waste your money and shame on the retailer for selling it to unsuspecting customers.

No Multi System Remote Option
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Irritated that you cannot add the unit to multi system remote. Phoned Customer Service and confirm this cannot be done with their product.

Audio is behind video
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The audio does not match the video and this is annoying. A reboot sometimes helps but then falls out of synch again. The first unit I returned because the remote stopped working after a few hours of use. These units are cheaply made. I do not recommend this brand.

Unreliable
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The unit will ranndomly lockup when given a command from the remote and after a bit automatically reboot. The unit will randomly lockup and it must be unplugged and after plugging in will reboot itself.

Converter box to use antenna
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the converter box to connect an antenna to my TV. My TV didn't have a coaxial connection. It worked great and I can get many channels now. It was just what I needed after I cancelled cable.
