Freeview Boxes

[zebo]

We're thinking as ditching Sky and getting a Freeview box. Is it possible with the boxes to record a programme and watch another on a Freeview box like you can on Sky?

In a word, yes. And you can record two programmes at once also.

Mine is a Goodmans which does allow you to record 2 at once, but you cannot watch a 3rd channel at the same time.

I ditched sky and went Freesat.
Took me 10 minutes to install it.
Unscrew cables from sky box ....screw into back of freesat box.
Power it up ....connect to wifi
Job done.

We have a humax box. It is quite good. I can record two programmes and watch a third one at the same time. It's a bit picky which channels sometimes, seems to favour recording BBC1 and Bbc2 At the same time. Occasionally will not do it if I'm trying to record obscure channels.
