The versatile TVonics DTR-HD500 enables you to watch subscription-free Freeview HD broadcasts on your HD ready TV and record up to 175 hours of TV (standard definition) to its built in hard drive.
Once connected via HDMI cable (included), the TVonics DTR-HD500 allows you to watch BBC HD and ITV1 HD, all without any specialist installation - just plug and play. Find out when Freeview HD will be available in your area.
And it’s so simple. Using the 8-day live electronic programme guide, choose the film or show you want to record with the touch of a button. And because the electronic programme guide is constantly updated, you’ll always have the latest info on which time your favourite show starts. It also allows you to pause live TV, record 2 channels at once, and to start watching a programme before it has finished recording.
By connecting to your home network via Ethernet or USB dongle you'll be able to enjoy BBC iPlayer and Automatic internet upgrades in the comfort of your living room.
In addition to the high definition channels viewers also have access to 50 standard definition digital TV, 24 radio channels and the interactive red button service.
The clever DTR-HD500 can also record an entire series, recommend programmes associated with your pre-set recordings and also be set to record a programme during its trailer. Another nifty feature is the HDMI switch, which allows you to connect other HDMI devices to the box then run only one HDMI cable to you TV. This is really useful if your TV is strapped for HDMI inputs.
The DTR-HD500 is a perfect replacement for VHS recorders following the digital switch over when analogue equipment will no longer work.
