Tim Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 What information is it that you've seen that means this?I've got a Humax PVR and it is a very nice machine and extremely easy to install, so I'm a little confused.More info please.

Will Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 The Humax PVR-9300T appears to be a Freeview receiver/recorder, rather than a freesat one. It should work in France, but will receive the French TNT digital terrestrial stations rather than Freeview.If you want a recorder to use with a satellite dish, then you need the Humax Foxsat HDR (freesat) or Sky plus.

Tim Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Just coming back to this thread and you've answered my question Will.Have just been looking at the Humax site and realised what this model was.Thanks - Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesdee Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Hi Tim thanks for your response. I have been trying all afternoon to install the machine with no success. When I scroll to the "system " it shows no signal being received. I am using a sky freeview box and trying to install the PVR through that. Bought it from Amazon and when I went back and looked at the customer reviews two reviewers said they had been unable to install through Sky freeview box.

Tim Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Like some others - you're getting confused between freeview and freesat.Freeview is the terrestrial TV system that transmiited to the UK - French equilavent of TNT.freesat is the satellite system that uses the same satellites as Sky do.It would seem that the box you've bought is Freeview. This, when connected to a suitable antenna will receive the French TNT channels.Regards - Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesdee Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Thanks for the information. I really should have done my homework before I ordered. I should have known better. Buy in haste and all that stuff.........Fortunately, it looks like Amazon will take it back and then I will order the right one.Thanks for you help, so swiftly delivered.
