grrclark Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 There likely will be, but from an obscure brand and you are sacrificing across the board. A seperate TV with tuner and seperate PVR/DVD is the more quality focussed choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnfromUK Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 My TV has Freeview and so called 'Smart' etc - and can I believe record to USB stick (never used that bit) It is a fairly basic Sony, but they are all much the same. I have a separate DVD/BluRay which I use for recording programmes and playing DVDs. Few minor bits of advice based on my experience; decide what size you want as they are available from maybe 24" to over 60", and you can now get quite big ones relatively cheaply - how big depends at least partly on room size. the HD bit of Freeview does give a significant picture improvement if on a larger screen, even though it only does about 6 or 8 channels in HD in my area. I think it is worth having and most TVs have it anyway IF you go separate units (TV and DVD), having the same make usually means one remote does both - which is convenient. Freeview by aerial works fine, but does need reasonable signal and an indoor/loft aerial may not be good if you are in a marginal coverage area. Mine is OK (just) in the loft with a booster at the aerial - but I do need that booster ......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
