Without it being sky, which SAT HD box you would say is a good one human or similar

We have one of these,

And it is very good and easy to set up, and linked to the internet.

We have the Humax HD freesat PVR, which is pretty good.

I also have a Humax Foxsat. Seems to be OK. Can be modded with custom add ons to act as a dlna server.

Humax as well, What Hifi mag rate then quite highly.

I have a Humax HD also. Great bot wish I had got the PVR one but hope to replace it soon.

Great units

another for the humax, had my 320g model for 2 years and it has been great.

I have noticed recently that they are now doing a 500g and 1tb versions of the box.

there is the alternative of the samsung SMTS7800 however I have not used it or seen it in action but from what I have seen of the comments online is that if you can get a samsung one cheap then it's ok but the Humax one is the one.

Another thumbs up for Humax, had 2-off boxes and 1-off PVR for 2 years with no problems at all.

Humax Foxsat PVR which we've had for a few years now.
