This, the longest-serving Freesat PVR, remains the finest around", "It's built and styled to a higher standard than any rival, delivers palpably the best picture and sound quality in this test, and it'll even stream BBC iPlayer", "It's the best Freesat solution you can buy". |

Best Freesat PVR

"The Humax is the best-performing Freesat tuner we've seen, and as a PVR it's an excellent product. It makes the Foxsat HDR a genuine alternative to subscription-based HD providers". |

"It's the best Freesat tuner we've seen. Standard definition channels reveal plenty of detail, a balanced colour palette and a punchy image", "The BBC HD image looks every bit the step up in quality that we'd expect", "As a PVR it's excellent". |

The Humax FOXSAT HDR freesat satellite twin tuner personal video recorder is a new product supporting the BBC and ITV backed 'freesat' service. Freesat aims to deliver extra channel choice and High Definition programming - all with no expensive monthly subscription fee.
The Humax FOXSAT HDR has decoding for all existing freesat digital satellite channels, it also has the ability to decode channels transmitted in High Definition and output them via its HDMI connection. With dedicated HD channels already broadcasting from the BBC and ITV (with more set to join) there's no better time to go 'HD'. Freesat can also boast perfect reception across the whole of the UK as long as you have a correctly installed dish - perfect for the areas with poor traditional TV reception.
The FOXSAT HDR includes a huge 320GB hard disk drive (with a 500GB upgrade available, see order box below) and twin freesat tuners to allow easy recording of all your favourite standard or high definition programs. With the FOXSAT HDR you can watch one channel whilst you record a second channel or even record two different programmes at once!
Connect the FOXSAT HDR to the Internet, via its Ethernet socket and your home network router, and you'll also be able access the BBC iPlayer service, which includes a large selection of on-demand programming. Perfect if you've missed an episode of your favourite series.
With the easy to use, full colour on-screen programme guide, favourite channel lists, HDMI connection (with upscaling for standard programming to 1080i or 720p) and a scart output the FOXSAT HDR is the perfect replacement for a Sky Plus box - without any monthly subscription fee at all.
