    SAMSUNG 46" TV

I REGRET BUYING THIS - NOT EASY TO USE AND VASTLY INFERIOR TO THE PREVIOUS TOPFIELD TWIN SD UNIT. ALWAYS DISPLAYS "NO SIGNAL" ON CH44 SYDNEY WHEN PICTURE IS GOOD. NOT FIT FOR MARKET - MORE DEVELOPMENT NEEDED.

    Wired connectivity

I have managed to connect my Topfield 2460 as wireless and get internet access but cannot get a wired connection to work through my Thomsom tg782t modem.
Still have not explored all features yet

  • Pros
    It's a Toppy
  • Cons
    Misleading advertising still.

Yes I am in Australia but recording two "different" shows on two "different" channels at the same time, is still just two shows on two channels, not 4, isn't it? The way they advertise it is misleading, it basically reads that you can record 4 different shows at any given time, which is not the case.
You can only record two different shows on two different channels at the same time and watch a 3rd with true twin tuners.
For the average joe, they wouldn't understand this.

  • Pros
    Twin tuners
  • Cons
    Multimedia feature not great

To the person '?' who said you can't record up to 4 shows at once, are you in Australia? Cos I am and I can record 2 shows from 2 channels. That is 4 shows.

    Misleading advertising

Err why on earth are all these places advertising twin tuners and stating that you can record 4 shows simultaneously? That's BS you can't do that with twin tuners, you can't even do that with quad tuners. The best you can do is record two shows on different channels and a watch a third at any given time. RIDICULOUS!

  • Pros
    Snappy, smooth interface
  • Cons
    non-ergonomic handset

My parents recently bough this PVR and its capabilities are awesome. It has an inbuilt web server and ftp host. uploading files from your computer is super-easy and fast (just make sure it's in the right format). All of the menus are really fast and snappy, indicating a powerful and efficient processor. haven't had it long enough to comment on the quad-recording capabilities ( we generally don't need to do that sort of thing) but the dual recording feature works nicely. The web interface provides amazing levels of control over the device, recordings and files and there are lots of multimedia capabilities that we will probably never even use. Only thing is that it doesn't show standard windows network file/disk shares. It only shows a Kodak share, must be some sort of multimedia requirement on the servers part.
Awesome box, and the icetv and universal remote work nicely and are great bonuses.
It seems to have great features in terms of being practically usable as a NAS. I really like it and the quality shows in its every aspect.
