Dumb user!
Easy to connect, but this user is not “tech savvy” enough to get it linking and working! I am appealing to family for assistance, but am happy to have bought this product. Have had a similar Panasonic product in the past so was very happy to purchase this one.

Outstanding picture quality, very convenient recording functions, huge storage
You can operate your TV through the unit or bypass it even though the TV aerial cable runs through the unit. The twin recording functions are a huge bonus. Before we upgraded our TV set we noticed how the picture quality on our ten-year old Sony Bravia improved immensely through the tuner of the Smart PVR.
