Hi all,
Thinking of ordering the Humax PVR8000t within the next couple of days. I'm hoping that somebody might be able to clear up a couple of things which I am unsure about (have read all the reviews and links I can find).
1. I plan to use the Humax to record onto the hard drive, then later archive the stuff I wish to keep to DVD via my Philips DVDR75 recorder. I've heard of some recording issues with this, have they been cleared up with software updates yet?
2. How do you receive the software updates to the Humax? it kinda sounds as though you need a special cable to download them from a PC. Do they also broadcast updates over air transmitions like Pace? If cable is needed then how much do these cost approx?
3. Recording over to my DVD recorder, can this be made via RGB scart or only an ordinary non-RGB scart socket? I don't want to think I will be losing out on picture quality when I archive to DVD.
Thats all I think I need to know, was thinking of waiting for the Fusion but after reading a few posts in other forums about the Fusion FRT100 am feeling a little doubtfull, also getting imapatient
I only pray that the Humax doesn't suffer from those picture freeze problems I experienced with the Pace Twin
Anyway, thanks in advance for replys/opinions!
