    Saw this on Alza, Amiko T665 (e34 delivered)

    Specs:
    DVB-T2 Receiver - DVB-T/T2, H.265 HEVC, Full HD, MPEG-2/4, MP3, SCART, HDMI, USB, SPDIF coax, USB Recording, Timeshift, USB Media Player

    Have any of ye bought set top boxes from Alza? Have they worked correctly (language, country setup etc), it has DVB T and MPEG 4 but no mention of this specific model on Amiko's website. Alza don't have any email contact that I can find.

    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Its the same as the Synaps T-65. Its for the Czech Market but it'll work fine for Saorview.

    Never heard of the shop.

    Slightly different enclosure on each, the Amiko T665 has 2 USB ports (Synaps T65 has just one). Both have aerial loop through. The remotes look identical.

    Which would be considered a better brand?

    Same manufacturer (GI).

    They are all rebrands. Amiko probably updated. Presume its for a non Saorview TV.

    Wont do MHEG5 which is the text part.
