Good choice

, i'm personally very fond of the pannies.
To enable RGB on the panny, press functions, go to others and enter setup. In the setup menu, go to connectiion, go to AV2 settings and change input to RGB/Video. Return from that menu and set AV1 output to RGB. The Panny is now set up.
Plug the TV Scart of the Freesat box into AV2 on the recorder. Then Plug the scart from AV1 into AV1 on the TV.
To enable RGB on the freesat box, do the following;
- Humax - Press menu, Tv settings and change TV scart to RGB
- Bush/goodmans/grundig - Press menu, go to settings and change Tv output to RGB.
I am personally very fussy for keeping sure that people use RGB instead of composite.
As far as functionality is concerned, using timer record on panny and reminders on box are as far as you can go without coughing up £250 for a decent Freesat+ box
