Review:
I have just bought a Humax PVR-9200T to replace a Panasonic TUCTH100, how you guys at CNET rated the Panasonic over the Humax amazes me... were you bribed! The Panasonic PVR is probably the biggest piece of crap they have ever produced, if I listed the faults it would run into pages. The Humax is far superior in all aspects, the Panasonic continually froze, the picture and sound were often missing ( this is with an aeriel reception of strength 9) and the EPG would quite often only show listings for two or three days ahead, and the speed with which the Panasonic reacted to remote commands was tragic. None of these problems are present in the Humax, it is a joy to use. Please if you want a good PVR buy this one, it's not perfect, but what is?
