Topfield TBF-200HD Set Top Box with PVR - Any Good?

Anyone had any experience with this set top box? Can't find practically anything about it online!

The underlying issue is I'm trying to find an inexpensive way to record shows. If people have any other recommendations from experience that'll be much appreciated. Cheers!

    Not sure about Topfield AT ALL but I've been looking at the Humax 4Tune for a while and believe I will purchase it when my MythTV box needs replacing. 4 tuners, and a proper EPG (vetted internet one the over the air one is crap for series), plus ability to serve content to other devices so you can watch on tablets, and other TVs around the house is the main attractant here.

    Main thing I want is correct series recording and apparently this does it as opposed to the others I've come across.

    I have a TBF-100HD and there are a few issues:

    • No proper instruction manual, I still don't know some of the features;

    • 8 out of 10 times, subtitle doesn't work properly;

    • Not compatible with some UBS stick, says too slow;

    Hope they fixed these issues on the 200HD.

      Yeah I read about those issues for the 100hd- that's why it doesn't inspire confidence when I can't find any information about the 200hd. I'm leaning toward avoiding it. Thanks for feedback
