Have DTT but What Box Do I Need.

danjo-xx · 2011-03-25 21:12:13

My brain is sozzled at this stage, sorry watty:) Have the DTT with mpeg4 built in to TV. Want to add a freesat box, best to go for HD (though not into HD) and want PVR. The Humax Foxsat HDR seems to fit the bill, but then I'm duplicating the the mepg4 decoder, is there any other way round this.

You'll have to duplicate the MPEG-4 regardless of what solution you use, unless you had a TV with Freesat built in. When using a STB the MPEG decoder in the TV is irrelevant anyway as it's basically a monitor picking up a feed from an external source.
