The day I took it back it started only working in 1 tuner mode even though both feeds from the MTI Quad LNB into the house were plugged into the Sagem, it then made a crackling noise so I unplugged it and returned it for a refund. I was then going to buy a Samsung PVR but my local Richer Sound didn't have it in stock, so I decided to go for the Humax Foxsat-HDR 500 from Argos and never had any trouble with it, so there was deffinately something wrong with the Sagem PVR, also the UI of the Sagem seems a bit user unfriendly when it's compared to my Sagem Freeview+ PVR and it seems crazy to have 1 folder per recording e.g 2 Episodes of The Big Bang Theory Recorded on Saturday get placed into 1 Folder then say 2 Episodes of The Big Bang Theory Recorded get placed into a seperate folder to the 2 Recordings recorded on Saturday, where the Foxsat-HDR is more logical and places 2 Recordings of The Big Bang Theory on Saturday into 1 Folder, then places 2 recordings of the Big Bang Theory on Monday into the same Folder as the 2 Saturday Recordings then Auto deletes the Folder when the last Episode is deleted.
