As the title says I need a suggestions as to a Freeview recorder so that my wife can still satisfy her addiction to the soaps!! Our Sky contract is finished in about one months time. I should add that my wife likes her Sky HD+ Box but is more than willing to try something else.
I would have just bought the latest Humax FVP-5000T. However all the reviews I read talk of this problem and that problem.
Mainly the sluggish response to the remote control. Given the fairly high price of this recorder I don't want to waste my money.
I would welcome any suggestions even if it is just to say that the Humax FVP-5000T is really pretty good and that I should just cough up and get on with it.
Any Freeview recorder box suggested would need to have catchup facilities via Wi-Fi. However I have a pair of Netgear Powerline adaptors in use already and could add a third if any suggestions were cable only internet access.
Thank you in advance as this subject a recurring theme!!
