838992 2009-12-12 22:12:00 I'm thinking of getting into Freeview but with the multiple TV channels from the satellite as well as the NZ ones.
Does anyone know the pros and cons of the Ultraplus F-9000HD PVR Digital satellite receiver/PVR and the Topfield TF6000PVR ES HDMI Digital Satellite receiver/PVR?
I want to record both SD and HD programs.
Any suggestions would be welcomed.

What do you mean by DVB-T PVRs? How many types of satellite receiver PVRs are there to choose from for SD & HD recording ?

838998 2009-12-13 01:43:00 Satellite DOESN'T support HD. It wont matter WHAT satellite DVB-S recorder you get, you wont get HD. If you want HD, you'll have to get a terrestrial recorder. DVB-T - terrestrial Speedy Gonzales (78)

In NZ you have two options to receive your TV

1. DVB-S(Satellite)

or

2. DVB-T(terrestrial)

You can check if you have coverage for both these services here:
www.freeviewnz.tv

Only the 2nd offers NZ Channels in HD
