Tiviar alpha replacement

    Ive a tiviar alpha plus since 2018 and it's worked great. I've come back from holidays and after having it plugged out for a week it won't turn back on now.

    So I need a replacement. After having a look at a few threads from last year and before it seems the zgemma h7 is the go to, however it seems very expensive now as it's only available from Irish suppliers.

    Has anyone got any alternatives that come with a HDD for less than 200? Tbh I just need the exact same features as the tiviar alpha, and don't need to be able to watch and record a UK station simultaneously. Once it can series record and has a combined saorview and Freesat epg.

    So are there any reasonable alternatives now that the zgemma h7 has been discontinued?

    I think it was a common issue known fault with them boxes.

    I had one that was fixed for that under warranty and then the replacement failed again a few years later.

    Another alternative would be to get it repaired if someone here knows a bit more about this issue?

    I am trying to remember. I think it was just the power supply pcb inside the box?
