I paid £54.10 for this video at qed-uk.com. So far I have found it to be good picture quality and good sound quality. The auto setup for the video worked well, automatically storing terrestrial channels and sky.
The only drawback so far is the on-screen menu system, which is used for even basic features like the tape counter. To get the tape counter to work properly you have to use the on-screen menu to set the tape length etc. (This means the video will stop rewinding before it reaches the beginning of the tape if you have left the menu set to E180 and you put in an E240 and rewind it.) To reset the tape counter, again you have to go into the on-screen menu system instead of the usual "counter reset" button being on the remote. The remote control is nice and small but unfortunately the buttons are a bit too close together so it takes a bit of time to get used to the layout.
There is only one scart socket on this model, so if you use that to connect Sky to your video, you will have to use the standard aerial in and RF out connectors to connect your video to your terrestrial aerial and television.
However, these are all fairly minor criticisms as just over £50 for a 6 head (according to QED) Nicam video is great value and there are plenty of useful features such as two speeds of on-screen rewind and a fast rewind feature.

LOOKS
Rather plain looks to this freeview box, you have the feeling there could have been slightly more effort as the lcd display only displays the channel or if in standy the time. Looks similar to an older silver... more
