    Also if anyone knows anything good or bad about this make of TV any information would be appreciated.

    According to a review by JP-Dublin 16 May 2011 (http://www.amazon.co.uk/review/R1BHTVTBZBJQYY) it doesn't have an MPEG-4 tuner - so not suitable for Saorview.
    Picture quality is excellent and most of the features are easy to use -- Its a plug and play even tuning is easy.
    HD when available is super but only usable in Ireland with a cable system as it does not have an MPEG4 tuner.

    The blurb further down the page rattles on to some extent about HD this and HD that, but no mention of 'Freeview HD'. Unless the TV set / STB specifically refers to this then it's probably older MPEG 2 stock.
    Only hardware carrying the "Freeview HD' logo in the UK has MPEG 4 compatibility.
